I help homeowners design and plan their remodeling project using my 25 years of experience in residential remodeling. Please check out many samples of my work at Houzz and my website. I create beautiful photo realistic images of their project completed with all their personal selections on finishes, plus complete architectural drawings for bidding, getting building permits and guiding construction. I put homeowners in charge of their remodeling projects by creating a very detailed plan so multiple contractors can bid on the same project so you can compare bids apples to apples.

"I am a residential remodeling contractor. I have been in business for 35 years. Bruce, recently designed a couple's bathroom suite for me. It involved reconfiguring the layout of the existing space. His design helped my customers visualize how the new space would look. Bruce worked with my customers and their interior designer to make changes to the design until they arrived at the end result they wanted. Having Bruce's plans allowed me to get accurate pricing from all of my trades people. The building process will go smooth because of Bruce's accurate, well designed plans. If you are looking for good design at a competitive price, I highly recommend BFreeman Design. Bob Flynn Flynn Construction "

"I had an addition I wanted for our home. We were required to have a survey and an engineer drawing to apply for the permit. I had a list of 10-15 local engineering companies given to me by the permitting office. Very few would return my call. several the rest said they only do commercial or that this was too small of a job and would cost more. It was taking months and I was frustrated and decided to try Angie’s. I am so pleased. I had a response that very day I inquired for the job. It was clear what was needed from me. Great communication and answered questions to help me get them what they needed. The project from start to finish was drafted within 3 weeks. It could have been done sooner but I was traveling and not able to check emails. Once I told them to text me to alert me of an email they did that. I would highly recommend them."

At R2 Studios Architecture, we help entrepreneurs open Residential Assisted Living (RAL) facilities by providing the architectural plans and compliance documents needed for licensing approval. We focus exclusively on senior living design, which means we understand exactly what cities, the Department of Labor and Industry (DLI), the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH), and the Metropolitan Council require for approval. Our process saves time, money, and stress: • Site Assessments – identify issues before inspections. • Architectural Plans – fully code-compliant drawings. • Evacuation Plans – meet MDH and life-safety standards. • Licensing Support – smoother approvals with fewer revisions. We make the licensing journey easier so operators can focus on building successful care homes and serving their residents with confidence.

"Anna has very clear vision on what has to be done. If you ask for recommendations she is all open to share her thoughts."

Locally owned and operated Architecture firm specializing in challenging residential and commercial projects. Brent Holdman has 20+ years of experience in the field of architecture pursuing expertise in all phases of design projects (concept design through certificate of occupancy) and working collaboratively through that process with clients. BHA opened in 2020 and we are excited to work with new clients with challenging projects and budgets. We make quick/clear sketches and 3d models available to you immediately after we rigorously define what your needs are and what options you need to see before making big decisions. New construction is great. But we can help with any phase you are currently in. The best time to bring in an architect, even if only for a consultation, is at the very beginning - much trouble and expense can be avoided that way. We will consult to define your Needs and Options for a small fee - whether or before you choose to hire us for your project.

Architects questions, answered by experts

Finding an architect for your project demands looking at the professional’s past work, speaking with prior clients to see what their experience was like, and discussing your project and vision with the expert to see what kind of input they have. Look for an architect that gets excited about your project or has experience with similar projects.

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.

Get prepared to meet with an architect by having a clear idea of what you’re looking for, a list of questions to ask, and as many project details as you can provide. The more information you can provide and receive from a prospective architect will help you decide who to hire.

Yes, you can finance cottage construction through several options. Construction loans provide funds in stages as work progresses, while home equity loans or lines of credit are available if you have existing property. Some lenders offer a combined construction and permanent mortgage. Always review loan terms and payment milestones before committing.

When conducting space planning, building codes and regulations need to be considered. As long as you are taking them into account and discussing them with the architect, you should be able to do your space planning appropriately.
