“Fish House Designs worked closely with us to design an extensive renovation to the 900 square foot main floor of our house on Quadra Island. Pamela Goijberg of Fish House listened to our initial ideas, added a number of additional suggestions, and then incorporated our preferences into a beautiful and functional floor plan. Throughout our collaboration with her, Pamela was thoughtful and very accommodating, and had a cheerful disposition at all times, making our planning with her both productive and enjoyable.”

“I've worked with Jim for over 10 yrs on various renovation projects on our property.

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 January 2023
“Great experience working with Jeff and his team from Immersive. They helped us to build a visual interior design of our Mt Washington vacation chalet. My wife and I are very pleased with the results, how responsive and professional the team is. Because of the team members experience in construction, a number of design decisions were simply perfect and right to the point. We are excited to start the build and make the design a reality. We would recommend Immersive to all our friends.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars31 March 2014
“We have worked with Etienne on many projects and it is always a pleasure. His ability to produce clean and functional, yet inspiring home designs is equal to many of Canada's more renowned architects while his demeanour is humble and unassuming. His creations are the embodiment of the West Coast Contemporary style, using modern lines and functional layouts, accentuated by native elements and detailing to suit the environment and lifestyle of his client. We recommend Etienne DeVilliers to our customers at every opportunity and the result of the projects we create together is always exceptional.”

“Petula was instrumental in designing a creative & beautiful garage. I loved working with her and putting my ideas together with hers. It was a positive creative process. The finish product is outstanding and we often get compliments on it. Friends say it looks like a cabin in the woods and they’d like to live in it. It’s very inviting. It’s such a nice structure to look at through my kitchen window – pleasing to the eye. I give the credit to Petula – her driving force is to create beauty."”

She is professional, skilled, creative and lovely to work with. I highly recommend Trudy McAdam Design. G Caryn Victoria, BC”

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 Mesachie Lake, BC, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best Mesachie Lake, BC 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 Mesachie Lake, BC 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 Mesachie Lake, BC 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, Mesachie Lake, BC 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 Mesachie Lake, BC 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?
