"Our kitchen remodel was a complete gut. Jim, owner, was right on top of each phase and answered any calls or emails promptly. We had a lot of ideas and his crew put it all together for our dream kitchen. This project went so smoothly and the quality is perfection! They were a pleasure to work with and we would highly recommend Emerald Remodeling."

"Mike is my favorite architect. As a GC it's extremely important that I have a good working relationship with the project architect. Mike understands that the client's interests are the most important factor. Mike often makes decisions in favor of the client even when it means he will make less money from the project. I'm always excited to work with Mike because my projects run smoother with him involved and he often surprises me with his creative solutions to difficult architectural issues. I highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for a trustworthy, creative, detail-oriented architect. Thank you, Mike!"

"Jessica and team did a great job on designing and installing landscaping for our entire yard in August 2020. The team was very professional: they were timely, listened to our input and completed the entire project on time and on budget. Would highly recommend this company and wouldn't hesitate to refer them to family, neighbors and friends. Kyle and Pam Rulau"

Architects questions, answered by experts

While classic Palm Springs architecture in the Palm Springs area will naturally cost more due to the high cost of living, prices across the rest of the country will vary. Remember that older homes, including those built before 1970, will cost more to renovate due to updated building codes—something to keep in mind when considering the upfront cost of the house.

Federal and Colonial architecture are similar in that they both appear mostly utilitarian and symmetrical, but Federal architecture is a bit more ornate. Federal design often includes decorative palladium windows, window lintels, and, sometimes, columns surrounding a more decorative portico. Inside, Federal architecture is set apart by its centrally-located oval room. Additionally, Federal homes tend to have brick facades, whereas Colonial homes more often have wood siding.

Many drafters go on to continue their education and become architects. Drafting is a necessary skill for architects, so learning drafting is often the first step on a path toward becoming a licensed architect. Drafting can also be a career on its own, with plenty of drafters choosing to specialize and focus solely on drafting.

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.

Federal architecture is most common in urban areas throughout the New England states, including the older parts of New York, Pennsylvania (namely, Boston and Philadelphia), Maryland, Massachusetts, and Virginia. The style also dominated in parts of Georgia in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, so many historical homes in the area embody this home design. Salem, MA, has two historic districts that predominantly feature this architectural style: Chestnut Street District and the Salem Maritime National Historic Site.
