Featured Reviews for Architects & Building Designers in Excelsior Springs.

Sherri L Weaver Design LLC
Architects & Building Designers in Excelsior Springs.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars9 September 2015
“We used Sherri to design our custom home in Pleasant Hill, MO. She allowed us to create at our own pace and listened to our needs. She was easy to work with and continues to work with our builder and subs, at their request for assistants, during the building phase. Sherri took action to do her research when we had questions that fell outside her expertise. Our builder praised her work and commented that he would recommend her to other homeowners. She provided us with a 3D view of the interior of the home, which really helped us to visually see her custom design. She met our deadline and budget agreements.”

“David and I have collaborated and worked on several projects together dating back to when we first started our company up to just recently. David is a very hands on architect and takes pride in making sure every detail is carefully designed throughout the project. He is especially great with modern and contemporary style homes where crucial elements within the house that normally get overlooked are very much highlighted. David also makes himself part of the team whenever we work together. When I have a project that requires a very highly skilled architect that knows how to build as well as design I call on David.”
Erica Kay Design

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars8 July 2013
“Erica is an absolute delight! Sweet, bubbly, and always optimistic, she eliminates the drama and stress from what's typically difficult decision-making. She truly makes interior design a breeze for her clients. Not to mention, she's extremely talented at her profession--she always does a spectacular job and has lots of fun doing it! Erica has a great eye for color and a wonderful sense of style and balance. A high quality designer that's definitely worth working with!”
RDM Architecture
Architects & Building Designers in Excelsior Springs.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 December 2013
“Rick led his team on our project to find innovative solutions to our "wish list" that we could have never dreamed of on our own. They created a whole house Master Plan with us and then subdivided that into logical phases. We completed Phase 1 in the Fall of 2012, and we couldn't be happier. The newly expanded spaces, as well as the smaller renovated spaces, all feel fresh and timeless and perfectly functional for our small family. The work included a bump-out expansion on the front of our home which grew the size of both our Master Bedroom and our Guest Bedroom. We also transformed two side-by-side reach-in closets into a walk-in closet and a separate laundry room encased in a new bright and sunny rear facing dormer. Future phases include removal of a load bearing wall to combine two small living spaces into a single, larger space we can entertain in, a renovated Guest Bath, and a brand new Kitchen, among other things. We look forward to starting Phase 2 with RDM Architecture in the early winter of 2015.”
SixTwentyOne
Architects & Building Designers in Excelsior Springs.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 January 2023
“We hired SixTwentyOne to design a large outdoor living addition to our home. Not only is this our new favorite space in our home, but the process with their team was fun and smooth. They were so helpful through a tricky permitting process with our neighborhood; not to mention, our contractor commented many times that this was the best set of drawings they had worked from. From their design process to their depth of knowledge in all projects types- this makes them an easy five star review to give and a top recommendation for design and architecture.”
McHenry Shaffer Architecture
Architects & Building Designers in Excelsior Springs.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 May 2014
“Mchenry Shaffer knocked it out of the park for my wife and I on our home in the country. The attention to detail was something our builder said you just do not get from other architects and said that he would be using them in the future again.”
Piper-Wind Architects, Inc.
Architects & Building Designers in Excelsior Springs.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 June 2018
“We have now completed several projects with Piper Wind and had wonderful experiences every time. John Wind in particular has been great about laying out realistic budgets early in the process so the final design comes in as planned. Their plans are well detailed and thought through making the construction process seamless. We would highly recommend this firm.”
Studio605
Architects & Building Designers in Excelsior Springs.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars9 August 2015
“We hired John Schutt with the architectural firm studio605 to help create a space that integrated all of our clients requests for their remodel. Fulfilling all of the specifics of both myself the designer and my clients was elevated by John's experience, his ease with the prospectus, and the final decisions needed to bring the project to conclusion. I will work with him again and again as his knowledge of the process for new and remodel construction was imperative to the job.”

If there is an environmentally focus home being built in the Kansas City Metropolitan area DRAW and Homoly Construction seem to be building it. USGBC LEED for homes, HBA Green Home certified they design them all.”

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 Excelsior Springs, MO, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best Excelsior Springs, MO 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 Excelsior Springs, MO 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 Excelsior Springs, MO 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, Excelsior Springs, MO 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.

  • Who will be working on my project? (This is very important if you hire an architectural firm)

  • 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.)
