"Going through a whole house renovation was not an easy journey, but Nick closely collaborated with us and helped us realize a vision. Nick did not only bring to the table his general contractor experience but his knowledge and skills in space planning, interior and structural designs were equally important. The sub-contractors he hired were experts in their craft and did a wonderful job. The end result is a home that is not only comfortable and beautiful but also reflects our lifestyle and personality. Thank you, Nick, and the crew."

Architects questions, answered by experts

Costs vary depending on project complexity and scope. Architects generally charge a percentage of the total budget or an hourly rate for their services.

Universal design costs can be minimal when you add them during construction; however, adding universal design principles to existing homes can sometimes increase renovation costs. For example, a mid-grade bathroom remodel is estimated to cost around $30,000, while a standard universal design remodel can cost closer to $40,000. Adding accessible design components can include widening hallways ($500 to $2,000), curbless showers ($2,000 to $8,000), and widening doors ($400 to $800). Keep in mind that these increased costs can lead to higher resale values because universal homes may appeal to a wider variety of buyers.

When you think about Arts and Crafts-style homes, you probably think of a Craftsman house or a bungalow-style Craftsman. Craftsman is one of the major styles developed during the Arts and Crafts movement, but it checks most boxes. Craftsman houses have low-pitched roofs, exposed rafters, open floor plans, and stunning wood finish.

An architect plans and designs new construction and alteration projects. They often provide sketches for homes, office buildings, shopping malls, and other structures.

Building designers charge between $2,000 and $50,000, depending on project scope, complexity, and customization.
