Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 March 2014
“Oscar and team did an incredible job designing our lake home. I'm a budget focused guy and he was able provide thoughtful design solutions that minimized cost while maximizing the wow factor of our design. Our site was extremely steep (think near vertical) and Oscar was able to create an incredibly efficient solution by integrating structural and site design with our unconventional floorplan needs. Our project is nearing completion and Design Services NW was our best decision. Nate W”

“Omar made the whole process easy. This was our first time ever using the services provided. We could not be happier. We explained our lack of expertise in this area and the importance of the addition for our parents who need additional care. Omar was very thoughtful throughout the whole process. Every suggestion he made was to the betterment of the plan while keeping cost and time to execute part of the final work. We can, with full honor, recommend his services.”

“We initially met Jim Hann through a referral while interviewing architects to assist us in designing our "dream house" in Arizona. After careful consideration, we selected Jim because of his talent for designing beautiful homes, many which have won awards, and his warm and friendly personality. Working with Jim has been a delight. He brings a "can do" attitude to resolving design issues and always has an open mind to our ideas and concerns. He has gone above and beyond the call of duty to make sure we were satisfied with the design so that it would work for us, our lifestyle and our family.”

“Rex is a fantastic professional. He did an amazing job of fully understanding the vision of my project. Any changes that I wanted or needed he was very quick to complete and discuss. Rex also has a great ability to communicate with his clients as well as with contractors and government officials. His attention detail and understanding of not only architecture but of the entire construction process was a huge help.

Sims Design Studio
Architects & Building Designers in Smelterville.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 April 2014
“We've had the pleasure of working with Ken recently to design a custom home. All I can say is that he's an awesome guy! Ken understands the structural, mechanical, and technical aspects of construction inside and out. His drawings are exceptional. (We have received numerous compliments on the plans from contractors.) But he also has an incredible sense of design - from overall concept, to layout and flow, to architectural details, to lighting and interior design. He becomes heavily invested in his projects, and it clearly shows. The quality of his work is far better than many of the high-dollar architects we could never afford. It has been a fun process, we are thrilled with the result, and along the way we made a great friend. What more could we ask for? I would highly recommend Ken to anybody who is looking to build or remodel a house!”

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 Smelterville, ID, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best Smelterville, ID 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 Smelterville, ID 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 Smelterville, ID 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, Smelterville, ID 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 Smelterville, ID architects:


  • What types of renderings (3D, video, illustrative) will you produce?

  • Can you handle my special requests?
  • What is your experience with similar projects/ architectural design and style?

  • 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.)
