2Scale Architects
Architects & Building Designers in Tomball.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars1 February 2013
“Greg Swedberg is the principal at 2Scale Architects. We chose him based on the recommendation of a well-known Houston builder. He is proving to be, not only a highly talented architect, but an invaluable asset in navigating the vagaries of choosing just the right builder and decorator. We particularly like the way he personally bonds with his design and works to see that his client’s visions and concepts materialize accurately in 3D. His acumen is that of a well-seasoned architect but his age puts him in touch with contemporary techniques and state-of-the-art design practices. He’s easy to work with and is honest in conveying practical solutions to a client’s personal taste in design.”
Allure Consulting & Design Company LLC
Architects & Building Designers in Tomball.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars23 July 2022
“Excellent to work with Allure - I had some pretty detailed work. And I had a few revisions, as I kept changing what I was looking for, and they were patient with me. The final product was perfect - and that was due to Allure's commitment to providing exactly what I wanted. Cannot recommend them enough.”
John P. Guy, Designer
Architects & Building Designers in Tomball.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars2 October 2014
“I have known John Guy for several years through association in the TIBD (Texas Institute of Building Designers). My membership in TIBD was as a supplier. As a supplier I worked with and got to know many of the members. This year I decided to start building homes. There were several reasons I chose John Guy: #1 He is an excellent designer, #2 He listens to his clients and designs to meet their ideas. #3. He has a working knowledge of products and applications. #4. He understands the complex nature between design and construction. For these reasons, John has been a great deal of help in product selection. I have also hired John to inspect the job and provide quality assurance. This way I am assured of getting everything done right the first time, and preventing any defects in workmanship from getting covered up. John is what I call a Full Service Designer. Richard Egan”

“I've done a few jobs with Paul. Paul has great design sense and his drawings are clear and detailed. Paul is demanding but easy to work with and helpful to always keep the project moving. I would not hesitate to recommend Paul for any project.”

Architects & Building Designers in Tomball.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 October 2011
“The RD team are outstanding. Despite the trepidation of re-building, RD made it a true pleasure, fun and extremely rewarding. They were partners in the process, and stood by us at every turn, at every decision and they brought with them gobs of creativity, insight, ideas and professionalism. We highly recommend them. Kelley & Ken”
Charles Todd Helton Architect, Inc.
Architects & Building Designers in Tomball.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 February 2016
“I hired Charles to design a single-family residence and couldn't be happier. He was very thoughtful, responsive, and innovative. He's a superb listener and really took the time to figure out exactly what I wanted and how to make that happen. This was a real collaboration and Charles made me a partner in achieving the design I wanted. He's wonderfully attentive and personable and has been such a joy to work with. He's also a wealth of knowledge and very tactfully pointed me back in the right direction every time I made a suggestion that wasn't so practical or affordable.”
Kevin Young Designer, Inc.
Architects & Building Designers in Tomball.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 January 2013
“Kevin Young designed our dream home for us. After our first meeting with him we knew he could create our vision. His first draft of our downstairs was so perfect we didn't have to make any changes. Our home is completely unique. He was able to take our ideas and show us ways to make them much better than we could have ever imagined. His process is easy and painless and he is always on our side. We loved working with him and will recommend him to anyone looking to build their dream 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. 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 Tomball, TX, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best Tomball, TX 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 Tomball, TX 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 Tomball, TX 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, Tomball, TX 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 Tomball, TX 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?
