"We loved working with Dwight! We have had the opportunity to work with him on both residential (our home) and commercial projects and couldn't be happier with the results. At home, he helped us to make our dream a reality. His designs were creative and well thought-out and his consultations before and during the construction were VERY helpful. We hope to work with him again soon!"

"My wife and I hired Diamond Developments (DD) to completely remodel our master bathroom shower. Remodel consisted of tearing out the old tile, fixtures, and substructure and replacing them with new Prior to the work, we had the custom glass shower doors and partitions removed by our local glass company that installed them many years ago. We wanted to use the same glass for this current project. DD assigned Justin and Anthony to our remodel. From day 1, they were always on time and ready to work. Floors and stairs leading up to the work area were covered with heavy-duty paper and plastic for protection. At the end of the work day, the work areas were cleaned and organized for the next. They were helpful and would give a daily summary of work completed and what the next dayâ s work plan was. We never had to guess. The tile remodel was all subway tile with custom inlays and niches. The work was beautifully and precisely performed by Justin and Anthony. Our glass guy was called back when the project was done. and was able to use ALL the old glass He remarked that this never happens and was totally impressed as were we at the work completed by DD. Our new master bath shower project was completed beyond our expectations and performed by quality, conscientious, professionals. My wife and I are very happy with Paul and his team from Diamond Developments and will use them again for future projects. Thank you!"

Architects FAQs, 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.

The cost to draw house plans typically ranges from $800 to $2,700, with standard blueprints averaging around $1,800. For a custom home, the cost is higher, with blueprints often falling between $5,000 and $20,000, and potentially more for very complex designs. Several factors influence the total price, including the project's size, the number of rooms, the type of drawings required, and the architect's experience level. You may also need to pay a structural engineer to ensure building safety, particularly for custom homes.

Mediterranean architecture comes from traditional building styles of countries on the Mediterranean Sea mixed with French, Greek, and Moroccan influences. There are three main types of Mediterranean architecture: Italian Renaissance, Spanish Revival, and modern.

Some signature components of Mediterranean architecture include red terra cotta roofs, archways, stucco siding, and metal detailing on windows. These homes often have balconies and outdoor living areas.

As with most large-scale home renovation projects, you’ll need an architect to map out the exact layout and specs of your above-garage room, which is required in many municipalities. Some general contractors will serve as your architect, or they may bring on a residential architect to assist with the plans.

You have three options in terms of professionals who can draw up blueprints: a draftsperson, an architect, or a structural engineer. A draftsperson can sometimes draw up plans for new construction, but they more often work from approved plans for alterations or to provide 3D drawings. Architects are usually the best option for standard residential construction projects. Structural engineers might be necessary for custom home builds or for alterations that could affect your home’s structural integrity. Draftsmen cost the least of the three, followed by architects and then structural engineers.
