Featured Reviews for Architects & Building Designers in Good Hope.

Allenbach Architecture
Architects & Building Designers in Good Hope.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 February 2017
“Mr. Allenbach has been very instrumental in my success as a builder in Southern California. I have had the pleasure of working with him over the past 10 years and is always surprising me on his vast knowledge of architecture and the building industry. He keeps his commitments and is always reasonable with his fees. I couldn't think of using anyone else for my drawings.”
Brewster's Drafting House
Architects & Building Designers in Good Hope.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 August 2022
“Brewster Drafting House is a GO-TO Choice for David Michael Designs, we have worked together for years now and he is one of the most responsive and clearly talented designers around. We have since worked on countless projects and I would highly recommend him time and time again. His work is fast, clean, sharp, and on budget. He is well versed in Lumion, and SketchUp as well as Chief Architect. I can not say enough good things here, it's a no-brainer choice. Our last client told me that he was so impressed with Brewsters 3D, that his wife was not sure how we had "Built" the house before we even completed the blueprints. She had thought the 3D designs were real..! - Davis Micahel”
BY Building Design

Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars24 May 2013
“We have used to Bob Yabarra on 3 projects that required as built drawings, and a two story house renovation. The products were professional, per our agreement, on time, and for a fare price. He is fare and though we made changes there was never an extra charge to us.”
Gary Daugherty Architect
Architects & Building Designers in Good Hope.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 February 2017
“I have worked with Gary for almost 30 years on both small and large projects. We are very impressed with his design abilities, thorough construction documents and diligence in following up on details. We would highly recommend him.”
GCC Designs
Architects & Building Designers in Good Hope.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 July 2017
“As a real estate broker, property manager and investment property owner for over 15 years I have worked with may designers, contractors and sub contractors (Good and bad) Mark at GCC Designs is at the top of my list of professionals I can trust to do the job right the first time. He shows up on time, articulates the scope of the job in a way that is easily understood and executes on time. The value he provides is right in line with the cost of the job. He is currently working on a major job in my personal home that is moving along just as planned.”
Buffett Design
Architects & Building Designers in Good Hope.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 April 2015
“After meeting with a few different architects, we hired Buffett Design for our whole house remodel. Tyler is friendly, real, and was very understanding in regards to our constantly changing ideas. When it was difficult for us to visualize the space based on the 2D sketches, he created a 3D walkthrough experience on the computer for us. This was so helpful for us to "walk through" the new space before construction even started!”
David Michael Designs
Architects & Building Designers in Good Hope.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars1 March 2013
“I have worked with David Michael Designs on numerous occasions for the past 4 years and find them to be, frankly, the best in their field at what they do. Always professional and knowledgeable, never failed to do an excellent job. Andy.”
XAG Designs
Architects & Building Designers in Good Hope.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars31 December 2020
“Our 100 year old barn burnt down in June 2019. XAG Designs was recommended to us by another architect. Denise listened to us and understood our desire to make the new structure look just like the old one. She assisted every step of the way. We can't say enough good things about XAG Designs. We know our new barn will last another 100 years!”
Kristin von Zweck, Architect
Architects & Building Designers in Good Hope.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 November 2014
“Kristin designed the remodel for my home in Encinitas. In a matter of a few hours she overcame design problems we had been struggling with for months, then went on to polish the design into a stand-out plan that has been a joy to live in. This was a complete home remodel. We expanded the master bath, added a new bath, moved and expanded the kitchen, expanded the living room, and added a studio. The end result took advantage of our 180-degree view (which the original design didn't) and cost far less than selling and moving into a comparable property with a similar view, if we had been able to find one.”
Ben Nieves at Lowe's Home Improvement
Architects & Building Designers in Good Hope.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 April 2013
“This was my first kitchen remodel and Ben made the process as easy as possible. Because of contractor issues, I needed more than one re-order, and Ben was incredibly easy to work with. He laid out all the options for me, and guided me in choosing what was best for my space. Also, he's just a really nice guy.”

How do I find the best Good Hope, CA 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.

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.
