“Paula Baker-Laporte FAIA and EcoNest really need no introduction. She is one of the top 10 Green architects in the nation, a knowledgable speaker and author and has created many beautiful, natural, ecocentric homes and structures throughout the US. Her book 'EcoNest' is a joy and an education, as well.

Advantage Building and Design
Architects & Building Designers in Ashland.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 October 2016
“Melanie was a pleasure to work with on three projects I hired her to do for me. Two were total gut and change projects and one was an addition. She kept to the timeline and the budget but allowed changes as we went through the process. I was very happy with all 3 projects and would recommend her to anyone and for any size project.”
The Morrison hOMe Tiny House
Architects & Building Designers in Ashland.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 June 2022
“I purchased my Morrison hOMe after another couple lives in it three years. Considering this tiny was driven across the country, and well lived in, it has maintained it’s structural integrity beautifully. I was expecting a few issues like mold or breakdown of insulation, but this home has been resilient to extreme weather (Minnesota winters and Arizona summers). It’s economical, practical and saves money for whoever lives there.”
Kistler Small & White Architects
Architects & Building Designers in Ashland.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars20 September 2013
“I have been working with Jerome and Ray for over twenty years. I have nothing but good things to say about them. They are highly skilled designers and extremely collaborative. I have always found them willing to integrate design and details that make a more buildable project. They are conscious of value engineering and are always coming up with new ways to use traditional materials that put a creative and aesthetic spin on their designs.”

It is often said when you're building a house, you’re building a dream. An architect or master of building design can make your dream house a reality. Architects can help you design and redesign spaces of your home or focus on helping you build your own house from the ground up. Architectural firms have extensive knowledge of architectural design and building materials, and a strong appreciation of ergonomics – warmth, light, and flow within a property. As you search through architects and building designers in Ashland, OR, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best Ashland, OR architect for my home design or renovation project?


When building or renovating your home, you don't simply hire an architect or building designer — you build a relationship with them. Be sure you chose a home architect who will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. Architecture is an incredibly technical profession and one where getting things wrong can literally put lives at risk, so ensure you hire a professional with a valid license or an architectural firm to maintain high quality and standards. Your next consideration will be architectural style. Some residential architects specialise in designing traditional homes or farmhouses, others in designing modern replicas of traditional homes. While a few have a knack for imagining bolder, more futuristic architectural design in Ashland, OR that incorporates the latest technology.

Once you have frozen on the architect or building designer, chat through your goals, projected budget, scope of work, schedule and any other specific requirements you might have. Ask them to walk you through the process, including the number of architectural design consultations, site visits and what they will be delivering and when, e.g. feasibility study, a technical drawing, tender package and/or planning application drawings. Also, get a sense of whether they are a good listener, collaborator, and problem solver. Finally, be sure to find out what the architect needs from you,deeds, rights of way, deposit, staged payments and so on.

How much does hiring an architect in Ashland, OR cost?


Home construction and renovation often have a preset budget and hence it is important to understand how much architects charge. While there is no set payment structure, independent architects may charge differently from architectural firms. Architects sometimes choose to calculate their fees on the basis of a per square foot rate. In rare cases, especially with smaller projects, Ashland, OR architects may choose to ask their clients for a fixed fee. Make sure the total figure and payment schedule is agreed as part of your contract, particularly if you are trying to accurately estimate the cost of building a house.


Questions to ask prospective Ashland, OR architects:


  • What types of renderings (3D, video, illustrative) will you produce?
  • Who will be working on my project? (This is very important if you hire an architectural firm)
  • What is your fee structure?
  • What does the cost include?
  • Can you handle my special requests?
  • What is your experience with similar projects/ architectural design and style?
  • 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 a general contractor and other subcontractors?
  • What do you estimate the cost will be?
  • Are there any complications you foresee with this project?
  • What will I need to provide?
