Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars30 August 2016
“The Quiet Moose has worked on several projects with Edgewater Design Group and their team over the course of several years. This firm continually proves to be an incredibly talented and professional group to work with. The drawings and designs that are created by this firm are everything that an interior designer would want from an architect. When we have the opportunity to work with Edgewater Design Group we know that the interior design was thoughtfully considered as part of the whole project with a mindfulness to the aesthetic and functionality of each piece and for each individual client. We look forward to collaborating with Edgewater Design Group bin the future and highly recommend them!”
Shoreline Architecture & Design
Architects & Building Designers in Levering.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars30 April 2016
“Steve Werner a partner at Shoreline designed our lake home in SC. I will never forget sitting with him before we began the project. I told him everything I wanted and everything I didn't want. I gave him inspiration photos and we talked about how we wanted the house to be used. He took detailed notes and asked the best questions. About 2 weeks later he set up an online meeting to show us what he had designed. I started to cry and he thought I was upset but I was crying because it was exactly the house I had in my mind. It had everything I had ever dreamed of and it was stunning. He was involved in every aspect of the build including some of the unique interior design features. He is professional and personable. He is a great listener and amazing problem solver. He is creative and detailed. I felt like he was able to see my vision and put it on paper and then follow through making sure it was done to his standard. We love our house. I would use him again and highly recommend him to anyone wanting something very special.”

“Excellent service. Understood our vision and crafted a beautiful design. Listened closely and then presented ideas. Patient. True partnership offering guidance as well as advice. Worked closely with contractor. Good communicator. Detailed design and blueprints were unambiguous and contractor and client easily understood the design. He easily communicated the vision to contractor and represented us well. Fees were fair. Results were beyond expectation but accurately reflected the drawings and blueprints.”

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 Levering, MI, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best Levering, MI 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 Levering, MI 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 Levering, MI 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, Levering, MI 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 Levering, MI 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?
