Kelley Design Group
Architects & Building Designers in Driftwood.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars16 July 2015
“We hired Traci Kelley to draw up our house plans after considering doing it ourselves, realizing that we had gotten in over our heads. We are so glad that we went with her. I was very happy with her from the first meeting. She listened to what we wanted and gave her own input that ended up being far better than what I had imagined and thought of things that I had not considered. Her expertise was greatly appreciated. I got absolutely everything I wanted and more without any costly back and forth, we did some minor changes to the very first draft and that was it. The finished plans are amazing, we can't wait to see our house built.”

Byrne Haus Custom Home Design
Architects & Building Designers in Driftwood.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 July 2016
“Steven is drawing the second home for our family. We could not be more pleased with his work. He listens, incorporates what we want, and is very good about communicating with you through the process. I have lived in many homes in my life and my favorite by far is the one Steven drew for us. In fact we loved it so much, he is drawing a slightly modified version for us to build again that take into account the changes in our family. Highly recommend!”

“Wade was incredible to work with-- he really listened to our wants and needs for our project and was very detailed oriented.

co(X)ist Studio
Architects & Building Designers in Driftwood.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars27 September 2016
“Co(X)ist wa a delight to work with from start to finish. Frank and Megan provided us with a clear process and timeline. They worked within our budget while providing options and possibilities that we hadn’t considered. They listened carefully to our needs, tastes and desires and helped us reimagine and rediscover our home! Our home now feels and lives bigger, it’s more open, light and usable - even though we didn’t add square footage to the home’s original footprint. They helped us vet bids and select our contractor and they provided the appropriate attention to detail and follow-through. All-in-all a great experience. We look forward to working with them again on another project!”

“Cemare Studio is a fantastic partner for any design project. They completed and implemented a huge wellness space design for me, and throughout the entire process I just kept thinking, "What would we do without them??" They did an amazing job of balancing design aesthetics, budget, and practicality. Their organization, professionalism, and commitment to the project gave us confidence that the project would look amazing, and it did! I would absolutely recommend working with Cermare Studio for any residential or commercial design project. You'll be in good hands, and your space will be beautiful!”

Element 5 Architecture
Architects & Building Designers in Driftwood.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars20 March 2013
“We hired architect Richard Hughes, of Element 5 Architecture, to redesign the living areas of our 1957 home. We wanted more light and greater functionality for the space. From the beginning, Richard was professional, approachable, listened to our needs, and communicated his concept well. He was also open to the ideas that my husband and I had about our project and incorporated many of those into the final design. Work was done in a timely manner, and the final result is a more inviting and useable space that’s great for entertaining and for everyday living.”
Level One Designs

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars11 May 2022
“I was referred to Randall by Travis Nuchia of Trust Builders. As soon as I was put in contact with Randall, he was very responsive and helpful. We conveyed our vision to him and he got to work quickly, turning around a floor plan within the first week! His communication and flexibility throughout the entire process was above and beyond expectations. He even kept it lighthearted and funny while maintaining professionalism. My search for a designer has ended as I'll be using Randall for any future projects.”

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 Driftwood, TX, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best Driftwood, TX 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 Driftwood, TX 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 Driftwood, TX 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, Driftwood, TX 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 Driftwood, TX 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?
