Nederhoff Architecture collaborates with commercial and residential clients to design and implement optimal solutions. We offer thorough and complete architectural services for a competitive and reasonable fee, based on actual time spent on each project. Since graduating from Harvard in 1984 with his Master in Architecture degree, firm leader Brad Nederhoff has been offering his architectural services for referral clients. Brad excels in listening, analyzing, brainstorming, and ultimately generating creative yet practical solutions that are carefully communicated with contractors. His thorough and professional process always leads to owner satisfaction with the ultimate outcome.

"This particular project was to add liveable space to our house. Brad understood our vision and the daunting constraints of our project (due to the age of the house), and offered several creative options that would meet our functional needs while being visually appealing. We particularly appreciated his skill at thinking outside the box to address our projectâ s constraints. We were able to choose a design not only that would work but that we loved."

"Marc Hershman is a wonderful architect! He was so easy to work with and offered great ideas for how to improve the house spatially so that the flow of the floor plan(on the first floor) became more aesthetic and efficient. Marc worked tirelessly in the extreme heat of the summer to achieve precise measurements of every inch of the house. His detailed plans were drawn beautifully and accurately and explained articulately in our first meeting. We appreciated Marc's follow up visits to ensure that the construction was done properly and according to plan. Marc related to the contractor in a positive and professional manner. Overall, Marc was always professional and prompt. We found his pricing to be extremely reasonable- great value for the dollar!

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

The early stages of building a house are harder than the later stages; laying the foundation and framing the house are two of the most challenging steps. However, it varies for everyone. Some people have difficulty installing HVAC, plumbing, and electricity, while others find it harder to plan the house and secure the necessary permits. 

Building a house without blueprints is not advised. It will prevent you from obtaining necessary building permits and meeting building codes and is likely to result in shoddy construction and unsafe living conditions. Detailed blueprints ensure that a house is built to exact specifications and is constructed safely and structurally stable.

In most states, you can build an in-law suite on your property as long as you follow local building codes. However, it's important that you have enough space on your property to accommodate the new structure. A functional in-law suite in your backyard will require between 300 and 800 square feet of space.

The average build timeline for a home is between six and 12 months, with timelines pushing toward the upper end of that range if you’re creating a custom design or need a lot of land preparation before getting started. Hiring a general contractor or a custom homebuilder will help speed up the process, as you’ll see fewer delays between different parts of the build process getting done.

Craftsman-style homes are predominantly found in the Western United States, specifically in Southern California, where the style originated. Since the climate was mild and there was access to plenty of natural resources, Southern California became a hub for this style at its inception. That being said, if you consult with an architect near you, you can have a Craftsman-style home anywhere.
