When choosing an architect consider the following: Interview them to find out where their talents lie. What type of architecture do they specialize in? Do they focus mainly on residential, or are they more focused on commercial? What level of detail will they deliver in their drawings? Is the price per square foot or hourly? How many revisions are included? Will the architect visit your site to determine the best fit? Will the construction documents come engineer certified? Is the site plan included as part of the construction documents? These are all valuable questions you want to ask your architect. Understand the expectation you need to set for yourself when you begin the architectural design process. Services can add up and it is important to establish your expectations from the beginning. Investing in a good set of construction documents is the first step in building a quality custom home. Cut yourself short here, and you will cut yourself short overall.
