Young Architecture Services

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars16 July 2015
“I had been doing a ton of research on different house plans that would properly fit the lot I own and the capture the available views when I came across a plan of Brian's. I contacted Brian at Young Architecture and let him know that I was interested in his plan and that I need to make some modifications. He quickly responded and let me know that this would not be a problem. We worked together over many months to modify the plans to suit my needs and he was very quick to make the changes and get them back to me to review. I would recommend Brian to anyone interested in building a home that does not want to spend a ton in architectural fees.”

“Heidi Miller and Brentwood Builders worked collaboratively to provide offices and a high end conference room for a local hospital. Heidi was extremely knowledgeable about interior design and product selection, was always on time in her selection and ordering of material, and was a real team player in getting the project completed on time and within budget. Heidi is both professional in her work ethic and courteous in her demeanor. Our project managers are looking forward to working with Heidi again on another project.”

“I asked KoR Design to do a renovation of a home built in the '80s. The specifics were to add a new bath, renovate the existing bathrooms, create a stone fireplace, and hardwood floors. Additional upgrades were done to lighting , french doors, and barn doors. Although I had specific ideas for the scope of work, KoR was able to enhance....creating a clean,simple,and elegant finished home.”

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.

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 Economy, IN, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best Economy, IN 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 Economy, IN 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 Economy, IN 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, Economy, IN 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.

  • 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 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?
