“Mauro truly is an expert when it comes to structural considerations. He's well versed in all the fancy beams and has fantastic handle on the best building materials to use for each application.

“Rick Hauser and his staff were a pleasure to work with. We found In.Site:Architecture online when we were looking for architects in our area. Even though our home is a few hours away from their office we had excellent communication and collaboration throughout the design phase. They were very knowledgeable about materials and systems while keeping us mindful of the budget. We were particularly impressed by their enthusiasm for our project. We were fully engaged throughout the whole process and the result is the perfect home for us.”

“Natalia helped us to redo our main bathroom and deck. It was a great pleasure to work with her in these two projects. She assessed the existing space and listened carefully to what we wanted. She helped us develop our expectations and inform us about options. Natalia brought us samples after samples of materials and provided options for layouts with photographs and renderings viewed from the front and isometrically. In the end, our renovations reflected what we only inchoately hoped at the outset. We very highly recommend her for any projects needed.”

“Gene was exceptionally professional. We were looking for a creative designer to help us build our home in an unusual residential/commercial setting. Gene's design included a floorplan for 2 storey's of residential space which included a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms and millwork throughout. His attention to detail and finishes is above and beyond. We were keen on avoiding box store finishes and Gene was very willing to help us secure options within our budget. Gene's knowledge of the construction aspect of the design was key and he was open to being on-site to help throughout the job. I would (and I have) recommend Gene.”
KCB Architecture
Architects & Building Designers in Lockport.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 July 2018
“in 2016 we finished a complicated renovation of a circa 1887 historic City home. We had to address serious structural issues, the treatment of previously hidden architectural features and the sensitive modification of the building to accommodate modern systems within a fixed budget. All of this work had to be approved by NYS Historic Preservation Office ("SHPO"). The project was approved on time and finished under budget because of the efforts of the skilled and experienced professionals at KCB. They have a very effective working relationship with SHPO, strong technical skills and understand how to control costs while still delivering a high quality finished product.”

“Had the great pleasure of working with Felix recently. This experience was one of a kind and I'm looking forward to our next project together! Felix is a talented architect, and a professional who is led by innovation, attention to detail and staying hands on throughout the entire project. Felix, thank you again for your hard work and for sharing your knowledge and experience with us!”
Studio Z Design
Architects & Building Designers in Lockport.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars27 February 2016
“Our beautifully renovated second floor never would have happened without Zuzanna of Studio Z Design. I think the most important skill she brought to the project for us was how she guided us through a decision making process that was logical, well-paced and timely. Her excellent drawings showing alternative designs and looks supported that decision making. She managed the tendering professionally, and helped us reconsider some features when estimates came in somewhat higher than we were hoping. During the construction phase, we had the peace of mind knowing that Zuzanna was there to mediate any issues that might arise with the contractor. None did. I would highly recommend her services.”

“Trish is a pleasure to work with--a true collaborative design professional who brings great breadth of knowledge to her projects. She is a great communicator and skilled at addressing her client's needs in both space and budget planning. She is creative and fun!”
Trevor Keir Design
Architects & Building Designers in Lockport.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars22 January 2021
“Trevor and I have worked together for several years on a variety of interesting projects. As a builder, I appreciate Trevor’s attention to detail and his ability to come up with designs that are aesthetically pleasing and well-laid-out, yet practical and “buildable.” His familiarity with the architecture and construction of older Toronto homes (which comprise the majority of our work) – as well has his familiarity with the ins and outs of the city’s zoning and permitting processes – means I can always rely on him to get the job done. Trevor is also a great communicator; he’s easy to get hold of and is prompt in answering questions. Most of our clients require the services of an architectural designer; others will have already found their own. But I’m always happiest when Trevor is on the job!”

An architect or building designer in Lockport, NY can transform your needs and desires into a visual concept and habitable structure. They will help you determine what is possible in terms of your land and the budget you have, and then work with you to plan a home design that best caters to your lifestyle.

Architects and building designers have an extensive knowledge of architectural designs and trends, as well as construction methods and building materials, and are well versed in seeing the ‘bigger picture’. Depending on the architecture firm you hire, their scope of work can span project management and sustainable design for your renovation, to the selection of furniture and finishes. So whether you’re building from scratch, adding an extension or renovating your Lockport, NY home, engage an architect or building designer to make your dream home a reality.

How do I find the best architect for my home design project?


It is best to hire a home architect or building designer who will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. The architect is often the first person you will hire for your project. If necessary, they might also help you select and hire Lockport, NY general contractors, which can include builders, engineers and landscape architects. Interior architects are also involved in negotiating contracts for all involved participants. It is for these reasons that it is extremely important for you to have a good relationship with the residential architect you hire. He or she can be the tie-breaking vote between you and the general contractor and can be your biggest advocate during the construction process.

As far as the process goes, the architecture firm that you choose will start with concept drawings and finish with construction drawings and documents. Some firms even design with 3D renderings and videos, but that should not be assumed. One of the most important duties of an architect is project management – that is, to serve as managers and supervise most aspects of construction, as well as facilitate communication between all other contractors.

It is very important to hire the right professional for the job. Remember that the most well-known or established architect or building designer might not provide the best architectural services for your needs. It all comes down to the individual project. Research and ask people whose work you like for recommendations. It's important to have an idea of the style of architecture you prefer, as well as the amount you would like to spend. Architects are natural problem solvers. They will assess the entire situation and help you to solve your problems too. Don't settle for a single company too early. Call and interview a few. Make sure that you feel like your personalities will mesh well and that you like their professional perspective.

Questions to ask prospective architects and building designers in Lockport, NY:


  • What is your fee structure?
  • What does the cost include?
  • Do you have professional liability insurance?
  • What types of renderings (3D, video, illustrative) will you produce?
  • What is your experience with similar projects?
  • When do you expect to start and be finished with the project?
  • What do your services include? (It's best that the services are until construction is completed.)
  • What happens when the cost exceeds the budget?
  • Can you provide me with references?
  • Would you say your work has a defining style? (This is important in case the architect's personal style will interfere with
  • your vision.)
  • Will you help with hiring general contractors and renovation contractors?
  • What do you estimate the cost will be?
  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any complications you foresee with this project?
