Pearson Design Group
Architects & Building Designers in Big Sky.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 January 2013
“Quite possibly the premier architectural firm in North America for Log and Stone/Rustic Elegant and Alpine genre architecture. Creative, pushes the envelope from a design, technical and creative standpoint. Works well in all areas of the design/building process.”
Constructive Solutions, Inc.
Architects & Building Designers in Big Sky.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 January 2013
“Constructive Solutions, Inc., completed a beautiful LEED certified home, shop and artist's studio for us in 2010. We are so pleased, not only with the craftsmanship and special considerations in our working relationship, but with the follow up service regarding the workings and settling issues of a new home. Deadlines were met within a reasonable timeframe and communications on change orders were explained in detail. As an artist, it was exciting to be able to see my ideas become reality under Robs direction and my husband's engineering requirements were carried out with great detail. Rob listens well, is a genius of a builder with many innovative, sustainable ideas in his homebuilding ethic and is willing to think out of the box in architectural detailing. We could not be more satisfied. We would be glad to provide photos for your consideration. Larry and Collette Hops”

Locati Architects
Architects & Building Designers in Big Sky.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 July 2012
“I was the interior designer on this project and worked closely with their project managers and the client. I did most of the work long distance, via the internet, so good communication was essential. Their staff was excellent and the quality of construction exceeded expectations. The resulting project was published in the Big Sky Journal and won an ASID Award (MN chapter). Jerry Locati's style is mainly Western/Rustic, but I'm sure his talents go beyond that and his capabilities are broad. I would recommend them with the highest possible ratings!”
Brechbuhler Architects
Architects & Building Designers in Big Sky.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 July 2012
“Andrew Brechbuhler at Brechbuhler Architects was chosen after an extensive search for an architect to design the remodel of our mountain home in 2009-2010. He displayed a extensive knowledge of construction and design that enabled our project to be completed on time and on budget and through his creativeness we were able to have our dream mountain home. We live far away from the project and Andrew became our eyes during the construction. His supervision and eye for detail were invaluable during the construction phase.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 July 2014
“We hired Bob Gilbert of Stillwater Architecture to handle a full remodel of our home in Big Sky. It was a large project lasting over 18 months. The results were spectacular and Bob was a complete professional. Easy to deal with, he communicated very effectively and the outcome was spot on target and on budget. Bob is an extremely detail oriented person which serves a key purpose in any high end construction project. I would retain him again without hesitation and recommend him highly to others”

“Nate, and the amazing group of professionals with whom he works, helped us to open up our dark and boring entrance into a bright and welcoming space. He designed a hidden closet disguised by a bookshelf to utilize dead space to store our cleaning supplies (we love showing this to guests!). And made the suggestion that we lay our tiled floor on a diagonal to add a subtle touch of elegance to the hallway. Nate spent the time to listen to our ideas and visions for the space and he utilized his talent, skills and years of experience to design a space that we love; we couldn’t be happier with the way it all came together!”

“Candace Miller and her team designed the house of our dreams. They listened carefully to what we wanted and created all of that and more. They were respectful of our budget and the project was completed 2 months early! They integrated well with the construction crew and interior designer and we never felt overwhelmed by the details. We have and continue to recommend them to anyone who is looking for the highest quality result in the western vernacular.”

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 Big Sky, MT, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best Big Sky, MT 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 Big Sky, MT 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 Big Sky, MT 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, Big Sky, MT 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 Big Sky, MT 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?
