In the Design/Build approach, there is only one point of contact in the construction process. In this approach, you and Dixon Designs and Construction act as a team in determining the requirements and specifications of any new project. This approach is timelier, less costly, and more enjoyable to everyone involved. *10% MILITARY DISCOUNT

WE WILL BEAT ALL COMPETITORS PRICING. We are a Residential and Commercial Drafting Service. We design blueprints for new home builds or existing home renovation projects, room additions, finishing basements and more. We can design blueprints for residential or commercial projects such as new home builds, apartment complex, office buildings and existing home projects and more.

"Dan appeared to be easy to work with when I hired him to create a home blueprint for my retirement home. I can't read blueprints but the floor plan looked like what I wanted. I accepted the blueprints thinking it was exactly what I wanted. The builder estimate was about $70,000 higher than what I expected. After discussing it with the builder, I realized the draftsman had inserted his own personal ideas into the blueprint. I had stressed the need to build a very simple, modest home. I contacted Dan and he stated he added his choices if he had no choice from me. He said he would make changes but would charge me $240. After disagreeing with the charge, he replied saying he dropped me as a client and would not be finishing the blueprint so I am stuck with an $1800 set of useless blueprints."

Architects questions, answered by experts

When planning a new build, meet with an architect as your first step. Architects will often work with specific contractors and can ensure the contractor on your project is qualified and experienced to handle your build. Both the architect and the contractor should be involved with the project from the early stages, but the process may be smoother when you start with an architect.

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. 

While the Arts and Crafts movement inspired many architectural elements, the primary styles from the time include Craftsman, Tudor Revivals, bungalows, and Mission homes. You'll see elements of these styles in homes, churches, museums, and schools—particularly Country Day schools from the era.

The essential difference between an architect and an engineer is that architects typically focus more on the aesthetic design of buildings, although not without consideration for the structural integrity of the building. Engineers focus more on the structural, technical, and practical aspects of whether and how an architectural design can be built as drawn. You may need to hire both types of professionals if you’re designing and building a new home.

On average, the cost to hire an architect is between $2,200 and $10,500. Hourly rates for professional architects range from $45 to $250 per hour, depending on the architect’s experience level and location.

The cost for architect services vary depending on several factors, including:

  • Location

  • Project type

  • Experience level of the architect

  • Local demand for the architect’s services

  • Overall cost of the project
