HH Furr Architecture & Development
Architects & Building Designers in Bay Saint Louis.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars9 July 2013
“HH Furr Architecture & Development designed and oversaw the construction of our 2800 sq ft, two-story home in Ocean Springs, MS. We love it! There are so many interesting architectural details--I smile every time I see it. This is our "forever home." Henry Furr is very easy to work with. We told him we wanted a home that made use of every bit of our space, and he gave us exactly that. Plus, he added lots of great details and features that I would not have thought of. And I felt so much more comfortable having him oversee the construction as well. All in all, working with HH Furr Architecture & Development was a great experience!”

“The Concept: D A R K TEMPTATION The site selected had a good corner location which opened to the road. The walls were brought down and clear glasses adorned the beauty of the parlour . As initial concepts dark colour schemes were thought on, then with much thought and the ambience that we wanted to create the darker tones of brown and white were finalised even using their glossy versions at places. With the use of such tones at the end the warm lighting showed off clearly and gave a cosy chic look to the parlour . When one envisions an ice cream parlour , it is often bright and complacent with an inviting aura to it. But this Dairy Don refutes to all of one’s Notions of a snug cosy ice cream parlour with dark foreboding space . Yet, it manages to capture one’s interest spurring them on to discover a whole new world all together . The dark walls camouflage the activity within providing the necessary privacy . At the same time , with a specific use of chocolate colour , the ambience of the funky ice cream parlour is conspicuous. Since space was a matter of Concern specified by the client, the seating in the parlour is arranged along the periphery , imparting an illusion of space in an otherwise small area of 620sq.ft. The plan is basic with all its spaces well defined with respect to their function. The service and cash counter are planned in a way that screens the ancillary spaces of the kitchen and storage. When in a dark room, one often experiences a sense of fear. But once colour and light are introduced in the right measure, the space gradually turns magical, bringing out the child within just as an ice cream would. The idea must have been to urge the customer to be more accepting of what is not always the norm. The space has achieved its unique pattern of contrasts that ingeniously conflate. As one is consumed by darkness, colour emerge, transporting one to a whole new dimension where light weds shadow and subtly urge one to create a world of fantasy. And that fantasy comes with an idea of chocolate, that embellish the whole parlour and that essential idea of melting chocolate can be seen clearly from the ceiling to the walls. The colourful panels are adding essence to it. The client’s requirement was to have their own private space within the parlour which is the most exposed part of the parlour area situated on the entrance so company’s logo is used in such a way that gives intact privacy to the owner and on the other hand the brand name can be seen in the entrance. A linear passage can be seen through the entrance so it was thought to emphasize the rest of the area and the deck is created as a result of that bourn. Passage and deck is segregated with the adoption of dark brown and light grey wooden flooring accordingly. The red chairs are adding an ambience to that light wooden floor and being eye catchy to the customers and at the same time it is breaking the monotony of dark space.”
Watters Architecture
Architects & Building Designers in Bay Saint Louis.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 December 2012
“I could not recommend Watters Architecture more highly. Leah has an amazing talent for listening to what I (and other clients) want, drawing a picture and turning those conversations and pictures into examples of exactly what I want. As a builder/remodeling contractor, we have collaborated on projects as diverse as minor remodels, new home construction, major additions and renovations of existing homes, the construction of a commercial bookstore-coffee shop and total renovation/rebuilding of a 3000 square foot Hurricane Katrina-damaged church 400 feet from the Gulf of Mexico, a project that became a 7400 square foot church raised 14 feet in the air on carefully designed piers. Her vision and thorough attention to details made this $2 million project a very visible example of rebuilding on the Coast. We have worked with Leah regularly for over 5 years and I look forward to dealing with Watters Architecture on a continuing basis.”
Architect Keleal S. Hassin, Jr.
Architects & Building Designers in Bay Saint Louis.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 November 2017
“After watching Keleal work for 40 years, I can wholeheartedly endorse his design ability and work ethic. A half century of client satisfaction in commercial and residential design including restoration and remodeling following Hurricane Katrina on the Mississippi gulf coast pretty much speaks for itself. He is especially adroit in the esthetic of modern traditional interior design as evidenced in his residence which was featured in Coastal Magazine; he’s the type of architecture who follows through with interior design, if desired. If supervising your project, contractor beware! LOL. He’ll make sure your project is completed as designed. We are current involved in the behinning phase of a new residence design to be completed in Summit, MS.”

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 Bay Saint Louis, MS, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best Bay Saint Louis, MS 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 Bay Saint Louis, MS 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 Bay Saint Louis, MS 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, Bay Saint Louis, MS 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 Bay Saint Louis, MS 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?
