Featured Reviews for Architects & Building Designers in Fountain Hills.

Friedman & Shields
Architects & Building Designers in Fountain Hills.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 January 2014
“I needed to downsize, meld styles and add color to our new home. We purchased items that we needed quickly without having an overall plan. I realized that we needed help. Found Friedman & Shields on-line and really liked their work. I have been very pleased with their ability to listen & ask about my preferences and then to offer choices to bring a cohesive design within budget. While the finished product is not yet complete, I know it's going to be stellar.”
Designlink Architecture and Interiors
Architects & Building Designers in Fountain Hills.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars11 August 2015
“We hired Designlink Architecture to renovate our 1980's home. Nothing has been done since it had been built, and though the bones were good, it was dark, chopped up, with very poor room flow. Debra Weisberg, Architect, removed several walls and created new spaces for laundry, kitchen and master bathroom. Debra presented her proposal in such a manner that we knew exactly what our costs were going to be. No hidden costs. At our request, Designlink assisted us with the contractor's bid analysis. She then worked with the selected contractor throughout the entire remodel. We also utilized her interior decorating abilities. We found this internal capability a bonus. She is a good listener and is able to put your thoughts to paper and design. We are very happy with the work Designlink has done and we would highly recommend them. Frank McLanis”
Klee Design Collaborative
Architects & Building Designers in Fountain Hills.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 April 2021
“I recently had the pleasure of working with John. I had a such wonderful experience I would like to share: After hitting a dead end with how to design a functional and well designed master suite for my new house, John spent an hour with me workshopping plans and sharing incredible ideas! His very first question to me was “how long do you envision yourself living here,” which is something I hadn’t really considered. His insight helped guide me through different ideas for the layout. John presented a wide number of ideas and left it up to me to decide which direction I’d like to take. Had it not been for John, I would have built a suite I regretted. His thinking saved me time and likely money in the long run. I couldn’t recommend John enough! Thank you again and I look forward to working together in the future.”

Thank you again Perspective Design”

“Heather was amazing. I had a small idea of what I wanted, but told her I was open to ideas. She blew me away! Her creation was well beyond my wildest imagination and I am thankful that my family and I will enjoy her creation for decades to come. Amazing professional.”
STUDIO PRIME ARCHITECTURE (SP-ARC)
Architects & Building Designers in Fountain Hills.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars9 May 2018
“Currently engaged with Studio Prime in support of a design/build project here in the city of San Luis Obispo. I couldn't ask for a more knowledgeable and professional group to work with, but importantly, they also have a sense of humor (especially John). They are helping my wife and I design (and eventually build) a 3,000 sf custom home on an, um, "interesting" hilly site that is presenting some challenges. However, these guys know their stuff, and are deftly navigating us around those challenges. Strongly recommend these guys!”

“We have been working with Integrated Design LLC for roughly a year now. Milos has been a great asset to our company as we work to remodel 1950's and 1960's ranch homes. He has been key in finding creative ways to take an existing home and work hand in hand with us to adapt the home to today's living standards. He understands our goals, listens to our concerns, and works continuously towards achieving our creative vision.”

They brought a truly fresh approach to the projects. They were very resourceful, responsive and flexible.”

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 Fountain Hills, AZ, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best Fountain Hills, AZ 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 Fountain Hills, AZ 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 Fountain Hills, AZ 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, Fountain Hills, AZ 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 Fountain Hills, AZ 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?
