“Presented company with needs for 1st floor space and ideas for style. Loved what they did with the space re-design (this was the second company we attempted a re-design with). They incorporated our style ideas into the design also.”

“Ted was a real pleasure to work with and had some great ideas for the interior and exterior of our renovation. Our project was a significant undertaking and his design took our vision and made it a reality. His design suggestions were mindful of meeting a budget with desired outcomes and we didn't sacrifice style. The success of his design is evident from feedback we hear from friends, family and strangers. Everyone comments on how seamless our addition looks with the original design of our older home. Regarding the interior, we've been able to modernize the layout and create an excellent functional and aesthetic flow. Thanks Ted. Well done!!!”

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.

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 Saint Clair County, MI 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 Saint Clair County, MI:


  • What is your fee structure?
  • What does the cost include?

  • 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?
