Keith Friesen
Architects & Building Designers in Hastings.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars1 August 2019
“Kieth has helped us for a number of years with his drafting skills. He is very knowledgeable of construction and understands very well how things are built, this understanding has helped us to come up with solutions that allow me as a contractor to stay on budget as well as resolve project difficulties within budget. He explains the process very well and lays out a realistic time line for clients. He follows through and keeps his word. Keith is a pleasure to work with, his dealings are fair honest and he is a man of his word. I would regard him as the best draftsmen I have ever worked with.”

“Bruce has done a number of CAD drawings for us. He is easy to work with and brings many ideas to a project including energy efficient components. The renderings that he generates help clients have a better visualization of what we're proposing to build. We have every hope and desire to continue using his services.”

“We worked with Paul on an addition and complete internal re-do - bigger kitchen, bigger master bedroom. Paul is a good listener, honest, and genuine person. We ended up buying a house and he refunded the unused portion of our "retainer". From the beginning he is comfortable to work with and what he says, he does. I kind of hate to have found a house because I know he'd work wonders.”

“Tim did a remodel of our office using a creative design that seemed to increase the overall space, while respecting existing structures. He has also done some projects for our homes through the years. I highly recommend his services!”
Ashley Mitlyng, AIA

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 January 2016
“My husband and I were ready to remodel our kitchen. We have a 1.5 story home built in 1954 in the beautiful Como neighborhood. We love our home, but the kitchen didn't fit our lifestyle and was horribly outdated. We were at a charity event and found a silent auction item of time with an architect/designer. We bid and won! Ashley was the architect/designer with whom that we won design time. We e-mailed her pictures, our needs/wishes and initial sketches. Once she has some options, she met us at our home. Sat down at the kitchen table to discuss our options. Ashley was amazing. She hand drew quite a few options after we kept running into issues. She never got frustrated and was willing to think outside the box to find the perfect design for us. It was a pleasure to work with someone as professional, down to earth and creative as Ashley. We absolutely LOVE our new kitchen that fits our family and allows us to entertain our friends and family. Beth”

“Chris had some really great ideas for our home remodel. She got me thinking outside the box. She is very easy to work with. I would use her again!”
Meriwether Inc
Architects & Building Designers in Hastings.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars27 April 2013
“Meriwether listened carefully, worked closely with us, and then knocked it out of the park on design! I couldn't recommend her more highly. She is the rare combination of practical problem solving, experience and actual design talent – the spark, the touch, the eye – that design-and-build combo operations can never even approach. Meriwether also stayed on the scene throughout construction and served as a bulldog advocate for our interests with the builder. As you can tell, we are thrilled. Our remodeled home now has flow, panache and usability. Highest grade. We'd hire her again in a heart beat.”

“Ron Brenner's portfolio displayed a wide variety of great architecture from residential to commercial. He has the education and experience that I seek. He's a great source on costs in a project. I haven't hired anyone yet for our remodel.”

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 Hastings, MN, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best Hastings, MN 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 Hastings, MN 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 Hastings, MN 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, Hastings, MN 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 Hastings, MN 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?
