Featured Reviews for Architects & Building Designers in Riverside.

Diversified Design Associates Architects, P.C.
Architects & Building Designers in Riverside.
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars29 January 2014
“I consider Diversified a design team, as well as a top sub-contractor, who not only identify the right construction solutions but understand a project from an architectural, engineering, and interior design perspective. I have employed Diversified to provide me with all three services, architectural plans, engineering work (including obtaining obtaining permits) and subcontracting work. Diversified does a good job in holding the subcontractors accountable that work is done well and on time. They ensure subs work in concert with one another so there are relatively few lapses in work as compared to other firms. I have not been stuck with a punch list that takes months to address. They address issues and problems right away. My level of satisfaction is so high, I have hired Diversified to work on two different houses. The first time I have ever hired a contractor more than once. The work on my first home was so well done and had such a positive impact on our curb appeal, the house was sold in 3 days! I employed them the second time when I needed a firm who could move quickly in making my fixer upper move in ready (they even helped me out in the aftermath or Super storm Sandy). While the work may be a tad more expensive, it was worth the extra investment to make sure the end product was well done. I absolutely recommend Diversified.”
RJM Drafting and Designs
Architects & Building Designers in Riverside.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 October 2018
“I met Ralph through a mutual friend. While we have only collaborated on one project so far, the conversations and dialogue we have had will surely grow into more collaborations. I am a young Architect, so his years of design and construction experience are extremely welcomed and is already a great mentor for myself, while also meeting his clients expectations.”
Jonathan S. Foster, R.A. LEED AP.
Architects & Building Designers in Riverside.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 July 2015
“Foster Architecture does beautiful and well-conceived work. His approach to problem solving is both professional and calm. My project was a renovation of a 1970’s builder’s contemporary that was visually disorganized inside and out. Foster re-organized and balanced the spaces, completely transforming the interior and exterior with small aesthetic changes throughout, while integrating the building into the surrounding land, giving the house an up-to-date 21st Century look and quality. Foster’s knowledge of the aesthetic use of materials is comprehensive and creative. I highly recommend his work and look forward to working with him again in the future.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars7 April 2021
“You will not find a more professional, reliable and easy to work with architect. We have been working with several vendors on a big basement project for the last 6 months and Daniel is in a league of his own. Responds promptly to phone calls and emails and really knows his stuff. I would recommend him in a heartbeat!”
Anne Surchin Architect
Architects & Building Designers in Riverside.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 November 2015
“Anne Surchin was an excellent architect for our small farmhouse -style kitchen renovation in Southold. I had seen a friend's renovation by her and was impressed enough to then hire her for our kitchen. She is extremely knowledgeable about architectural styles and costs and was able to work within our means. She suggested an excellent builder who kept prices down. As a woman, she was especially mindful of my needs and comfort in the kitchen and was imaginative at suggesting ideas when I didn't have a clue. I would highly recommend Anne for those who have an appreciation of good architecture and would like an architect who has the same.”
CK Architects
Architects & Building Designers in Riverside.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 June 2012
“After researching and interviewing several other firms in the area, my husband and I were delighted to meet Russ Campaign. Our project was challenging and demanded a level of creativity that Russ met and exceeded. His ability to execute our vision within the confines of what could be done in the project as well as keeping the design practical in terms of cost was excellent. I would unconditionally recommend his firm, and look forward to working with them again in the future.”
Peterson Architectural Works
Architects & Building Designers in Riverside.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars9 May 2019
“We were very happy with the the whole project and especially with the design. Eric is easy to work with and very professional. He is able to understand the client's desires and transform them into something unique.”
Jason Thomas Architect
Architects & Building Designers in Riverside.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars7 November 2013
“Creating our new home with Jason Poremba, was a terrific experience. And now that we are living in it, our home has exceeded all expectations, due to his thoughtful design. The entire design and build process was very collaborative. Jason took time to listen and develop a relationship with our entire family, so that he understood how we live, and then designed an inspiring space that works perfectly with our lifestyle. His design expertise is evident in the way he successfully balanced a rather traditional exterior with the more contemporary, clean lines that we wanted for the interior. And his custom design details provided a really personalized style. Jason was mindful of our budget and helped us determine which elements of the house to prioritize. And throughout the project he provided options for managing costs without sacrificing quality. Jason’s enthusiasm and creativity made it a pleasure working with him - we highly recommend him!”
Peter Podlas Architect

Red Fox Consulting
Architects & Building Designers in Riverside.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars1 March 2022
“Nate from Red Fox was wonderful to work with. He made 3-D renderings of our new home addition that we used for visualization of our design and we also used them for permitting the project with the town. Nate made revisions based on comments from my wife and me. He also suggested other improvements that we had not thought of ourselves. I highly recommend Red Fox Consulting. We plan on using him again for our landscape design around the new addition.”

How do I find the best Riverside, NY 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.

While a few have a knack for imagining bolder, more futuristic architectural design in Riverside, NY 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.

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, Riverside, NY architects may choose to ask their clients for a fixed fee.

  • 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?
