"The Design One team provided the best quote, started and completed the job as planned, provided excellent work/craftsmanship and exited the property cleanly as expected. The job had two minor over-runs that were discussed ahead of time and agreed to. The finished product is superior to the original as multiple problems with the initial design technique were remedied. Overall, Design One met or exceeded expectations and is highly recommended for future Landscape Construction Services."

Architects questions, answered by experts

Some homes, like those with flat roofs, may not have eaves at all. Some contemporary-style homes also lack eaves, although many may have abbreviated eaves to divert water and protect the walls and foundation. Homes without eaves often have specific types of gutters affixed directly to the edge of the roof to provide adequate drainage.

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

Designs typically take 2-6 months, depending on factoring, project size, and customization needs. Larger or more complex designs may require additional time for approval and revisions.

A floor plan is a less detailed illustration showing a building or room's layout from above, including elements like windows, doors, walls, and fixtures. It offers a simplified view for homeowners. In contrast, a blueprint is a more detailed, to-scale architectural drawing that includes all parts of the building plans, such as structural elements, construction details, and utility schematics. While a floor plan can be a type of view within a blueprint, the complete blueprint contains all the necessary details to turn the plan into a reality.

While Craftsman-style houses are bungalows, cottages typically aren’t, though they can be. But they also differ in other stylistic aspects. For instance, cottages usually have simpler designs and painted woodwork.
