"Kristen was a pleasure to work with. She takes the time to understand her client needs, is creative, and easy to work with. Additionally, she understands the entire permitting process in both the city and suburbs and made that process so easy. My son is currently working with her on a basement remodel. We will definitely work with her again."

"We recently hired Hogan Design and Construction to remodel our kitchen and laundry room, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! From start to finish, the team was professional, reliable, and a pleasure to work with. Our designer, Kasia, took the time to listen to our ideas, offered thoughtful suggestions, and kept us updated throughout the design process. We trusted her guidance, and the results are spectacular. The craftsmanship is exceptional—every detail was handled with care, and the finished spaces are both beautiful and functional. Hogan sourced the cabinets, countertops, lighting, and flooring, all of which are high-quality and perfectly suited to our home. A special thanks goes to Doug, our project manager, who kept everything on schedule, respected our home, and went above and beyond to ensure everything was completed to perfection. It’s rare to find a contractor who combines great communication, skill, and genuine pride in their work, but Doug, Kasia, and the entire Hogan team (including their subcontractors) delivered all of that and more. We absolutely love our new kitchen and laundry room and would recommend Hogan without hesitation to anyone considering a remodel."

"Excellent! Guy and his team are true professionals who take pride in their work. From start to completion, Guy was very organized, communicated regularly with us about the schedule, the deliverables, and the decisions we needed to make to ensure the project met our expectations and was completed on time. After the demolition phase, we encountered some structural engineering issues in the basement. Guy quickly put us in touch with structural engineers, he bid out the project, and we were able to solve the problem and stay on track. In addition to his technical know-how, Guy and his team partnered with us in designing a basement that met all of our needs — a fun and stylish space for our teens to hang out in, while providing functional design and modernizing the space with updated electrical, gas fireplace, and LED lighting.

Architects questions, answered by experts

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.

Palm Springs homes and similar mid-century modern architecture took off in Northern California, Seattle, and the Midwest. You'll also find many homes that emulate the style in northeastern states, such as throughout Pennsylvania and New York State. That being said, you'll have the best luck finding this style in its original home: Palm Springs and the surrounding area.

The most idyllic building material that encapsulates the feel of Federal architecture is a brick facade, often with bricks alternating between long side and short side. Palladium and arched transom windows are also prevalent, as are flat, white window lintels. More ornate Federal architecture buildings also include columns on either side of the front door. More important than most of the finer details, though, is the symmetry from the exterior. On the interior, ornate plaster moldings and plaster ceiling medallions are indicative of the style.

Above all, the downside to building a new house is a longer timeline. You need several months to finish the build, depending on the supply chain and labor availability in the meantime. Building a home compared to buying one is also more expensive, both in the building process and when it comes to mortgage rates and property taxes.

The cost to draw up housing blueprints ranges from $800 to $2,700, depending on several factors. Blueprints for a custom home cost between $5,000 and $20,000, and extraordinarily complex designs can easily surpass the high end of that price range. The experience level of the architect will also affect the cost, as more experienced professionals can charge higher rates.
