TDA's start was with residential clientele, in 2004. In the Commercial arena, Tom has recently successfully completed several design projects for Parsons Commercial Group, in Framingham, MA, for both the commercial real estate brokerage firm itself, and it's tenants, potential lease-holders, etc. Last year (2010), with the completion of a large exterior mall facelift project in Bellingham, MA, much to the pleasing of the Owner, TDA has been able to gain momentum in the commercial real estate sectors, providing architectural services, code review, client-contact and consulting, etc., leading to a growing commercial client base.

Tom and his son, Drew, also have an affinity for Ford Motor Company, and all things cars and basically anything with wheels.

Architects questions, answered by experts

If your project is complex, it may make sense to hire an architect to draw plans. An architect might also be a good person to hire if you want to ensure your plans adhere to building codes and regulations.

It can take anywhere from a few days to several months to draw up architectural plans, depending on the complexity of your project. Architectural plans are highly detailed documents that take time to complete, and any changes or alterations can significantly extend how long they take.

Italianate architecture is a reinterpretation of Renaissance styles, combining elements of Italian farmhouses and villas with Victorian materials and construction. This home style emerged in the Victorian era, gaining popularity in the U.S. in the mid-to late-1800s. The style came about in response to what many then viewed as the too-rigid and stuffy Classical style designs. 

The best way to start designing a house is to know what you want before designing. Making a list of your biggest priorities in a home will help. Designing a house without an idea of what you need or want in a home will lead to many trials and errors that could make it harder to figure out what you need in your design.

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