Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 April 2013
“This was my first kitchen remodel and Ben made the process as easy as possible. Because of contractor issues, I needed more than one re-order, and Ben was incredibly easy to work with. He laid out all the options for me, and guided me in choosing what was best for my space. Also, he's just a really nice guy.”

“Super. Jeff did a beautiful job of bringing our 1960's home to the 21st century, with great attention to detail, and a lovely outcome. The only thing I regret is when I did not follow his advice.”

Blueprint Studio
Architects & Building Designers in Upland.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 May 2017
“Very pleased with the results of our outdoor living area. After meeting with Mr. Ayala and giving him an idea of what we liked and wanted, he gave us ideas and drew up the plans as well to execute the building of our outdoor living area. The plans that he drew up made the outdoor living area look as though it was in the original plans for the house and not an addition. This is the look we wanted. Mr. Ayala was very professional, attentive and patient with us. He was a pleasure to work with.”
Stratos Form
Architects & Building Designers in Upland.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 November 2015
“Wow! Stratos Form not only met our expectations but greatly exceeded them! I can not say enough about Carol and the positive role she played in our entire project. She not only was brilliant in the concept and design of our home, but she was always professional and gave us perfect advise through the entire Design Review process with the City of Laguna Beach (always a tough one). Our architectural plans were beyond thorough, our builder said he had never seen such detailed drawings. During the conceptual process Carol listened to our needs and incorporated all of our requests, while maintaining the highest of design standards. I would eagerly refer Carol and Stratos Form to anyone who asked!”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 December 2016
“I can’t say enough about the positive experience I had with Charles d’Arcy . He engaged in the vision and challenges of designing 2 attached condominiums on a very small lot near the beach. As a realtor and real estate investor I have high expectations and he exceeded them. He showed creativity, integrity, professionalism and passion for his work. I truly enjoyed the experience of working with him.”

Nott & Associates
Architects & Building Designers in Upland.
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars7 June 2013
“Tom was the architect and Jeff handled the construction of a second floor addition and a pool house. The work and design were excellent. Tom completed work in a timely manner and took into consideration my wants and desires. Jeff's work was excellent but his time management was suspect. They both were a joy to work with but completion was a frustration. I would hire both of them again but hold Jeff to greater time expectations.”
RL Osborn Architect
Architects & Building Designers in Upland.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 February 2016
“My wife and I wanted to build an outdoor patio that would include a kitchen, family room, dining, and bar. While I had an idea of the layout, I didn't have a clue on the rest. Robert was referred to us by a good friend who had built a similar outdoor addition. What I like most about Robert's work was the drive to completion. He was not a contractor we had to wait on. He had great ideas and was willing to run interference with our contractor if needed. Very happy with his work. John”

An architect or building designer in Upland, CA 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 Upland, CA 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 Upland, CA 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 Upland, CA:


  • 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?
