“Joyce is one of the most talented Architects I have ever had the pleasure of working with. She is the "complete" Architect as people expect great Architects to be. When she designs your home your Interior Design will be integral. Great architects like Frank Lloyd Wright designed with this approach. Anyone who selects her as an Architect is in for a TREAT.”

“To say that Leslie is absolutely amazing would be an understatement. He is the most professional, competent, fair and knowledgeable architect that I have ever had the pleasure of working with.

The Design Standard, Inc.

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 January 2014
“Henry designed a home for us in Mediterra in 2007. We had such an amazing experience we decided to design and build another home with him. The words "this can't be done" do not come out of his mouth. If you want the best personalized service then Henry is your man! The attention to detail is amazing. Currently we are constructing a 9200 +/- home. He even worked very close with the pool architect to tie everything together. Contact me if you want a reference. A++”
Simonson Design USA
Architects & Building Designers in Fort Myers.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars6 May 2021
“After interviewing several architects, we chose Simonson Design to create our dream home at Lake Texoma. We provided our vision, and Alex, our architect, created not only what we envisioned but architectural features that enhanced and went beyond our vision. What is more, Alex exhibited extreme patience with the multitude of changes that we made to the plan. The 3D platform made it easy for us to see exactly where these changes needed to be made. We just received the final plans. They certainly exceeded our expectations. We are elated and cannot wait to build our dream home. The photo is a picture of our property, waiting for our dream home to be built. We could not be more pleased with our decision to hire Simonson Design to create our vision.”
Sater Design Collection, Inc.

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 October 2012
“Dan Sater and his team at the Sater Group is by far the most skilled and competent design firm available. As a builder and customer, his ideas are absolutely unique to the industry and his vision is extraordinary. Not only does Dan Sater have the ability to create an amazing work of art, his team creates plans that work and you can count on them being accurate. There is no other firm I would advocate as much as I do Sater. Not only does the Sater Group outperform its competitors, they are incredibly cost effective!”

“My husband and I were refered to Greg Weber by a local contractor. We have been working with Greg on our new house plans and we can't be happier with his ideas, his patience with us, his calm demeanor, and his desire to satisfy our design wishes. We have finally completed our plans and we love them. We highly recommend Greg Weber.”

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 Fort Myers, FL, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best Fort Myers, FL 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 Fort Myers, FL 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 Fort Myers, FL 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, Fort Myers, FL 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 Fort Myers, FL 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?
