"While the project I needed Scarano Architect for did not end up being necessary (so I ultimately did not need to hire them), they were incredibly responsive and proactive with my potential needs, talked me through what they could provide me, and quickly gave me a quote. I would definitely reach out to them again if I ever do need an engineer on a project!"

"We had the pleasure of working with Evan, whom we found on Angie's List, and we couldn't be happier with the results. His expertise proved invaluable in converting our 2-bedroom apartment into a spacious and legally compliant 3-bedroom. He skillfully handled the innovative splitting of a large closet to create a new closet for the additional bedroom, ensuring that the modifications met all the necessary building codes and regulations. Throughout the entire project, Evan consistently displayed insightful guidance, proactive problem-solving, excellent communication skills, and remarkable responsiveness. Despite the challenges posed by our persnickety building architect, he remained positive and dedicated. We are immensely satisfied with his tireless efforts in not only transforming our apartment but also ensuring its legal compliance. We highly recommend Evan for his exceptional work. Angie's List truly connected us with an exceptional professional."

"We engaged Gaudioso Construction to perform full-scale gut renovation of the first floor and kitchen remodel at our Forest Hills home. We could not have been happier with the quality of their workmanship and are confident in recommending Gaudioso for the most complicated projects. Gaudioso’s team of carpenters, plumbers, electricians, tilers, sheetrockers, and painters were all skilled and quite prideful of their craft. Gaudioso’s guys were not your typical get in and get out, cut corners at every turn kind of workers. They all worked methodically and meticulously spending the time where time needed to be spent. While pictures of the end product are always great, one needs to see a project from beginning to end to fully understand the skills needed to ensure your walls are straight, your pipes don’t clog, your electric doesn’t spark, your floors (and hence your cabinets) are level, and and every inch of your remodeled space feels exactly right. Gaudioso’s people have mastered those skills which is seen in the photos. The project was based on an architect’s drawings and was subject to inspection by the NYC buildings department. The project consisted of the following in order of complexity: - Bearing wall separating a terrible galley kitchen from the dining room was removed - A 20ft steel beam installed to support second floor of house (in place of bearing wall) - Steam heating pipes within the walls were re-routed to make way for a kitchen island - Waterlines and waste lines to the bathrooms above were all re-routed to make way for a higher ceiling and increased floor area - Existing kitchen plumbing completely removed, replaced and relocated - Electric in kitchen completely removed, replaced and brought to code (incl. upgraded breaker box) - Complete reframing & sheetrocking of the entire space - Non-bearing wall removed, ceiling, adjacent wall, and floor repaired and matched with existing - Cabinets, lighting fixtures, faucets and etc all installed - Floors removed, replaced and finshed. All of the items above and numerous other ancillary items were completed within the expected timeframe and without any matters of concern. On matters of preference, Gaudioso addressed in a way that told us they wanted us to be happy. One last thing, if you’ve read this far. Gaudioso took ownership of anything his people did touch or (what he believed) should have touched. During the course of the project there were two unexpected occurrences. In both these situations, most contractors would have thrown their hands up and said “that’s your problem”. Gaudioso, without being asked, scoped the occurrences into his realm of responsibility and fixed both issues at his own expense. Any project comes with its heartaches, especially one of this scale. It’s best to hire a contractor with a strong track record and people that are up to the task. Gaudioso is one you can rely on to get the job done without the typical contractor issues."

High end architect specializing in making a house feel like home!\nI make people’s dream homes a reality. There is nothing more satisfying to me then improving the quality of life for my clients and giving them a house that they are able to make into their homes.\nI have been a licensed architect since 2015 and am currently registered in Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, Maine and Massachusetts. With my NCARB certificate I am able, if necessary, to obtain reciprocal licensure throughout the country in a short time period. \n\nI am inspired by our local built environment, humble materials, classical building forms and traditional building details. I have a strong interest in the reinterpretation of classical building forms, blended with contemporary open floor plans. \nI have a stronger interest in helping to guide my clients to ways of improving the quality of their lives through adapting the built environment to meet their needs.

"Permit Architects was fantastic. Esther, George, and their team helped get our renovation plans approved by our building's co-op board and DOB. The process was smooth and fast. I highly recommend them and would definitely work with them again."

"I have lived on Tweed for 27 years === I bought my home in 1995 knowing I would take it down and build a dream home one day. For about 12 years I dreamed about how to capture the special land --- looking at many styles I kept going back to Jo Machinist homes and knew she was the architect for me. Jo has amazing taste and knew exactly what to do she worked with me on how to capture the sun rise and set (and the shadows) , how to frame an iconic tree and bring the Hudson River and the bridge into each room. Some of my favorite parts are the 140 foot retaining wall to secure the land, the levels to have the vanishing edge pool looking at the river while keeping the sun on the pool most of the day with an amazing cabana next to the pool. Jo always told me she would make my home my dream and together we did. I feel like I live in a SPA everyone who visits wants to move in. It was more than jus the house it was the entire property she transformed. Thanks, Deirdre Quinn"

Architects questions, answered by experts

Some architects include interior design in their portfolio of offerings, while some architectural firms employ interior designers to handle that aspect of home building projects or refer clients to interior designers they’ve worked with in the past. Ask a local architect whether they offer interior design services as well.

Architects often oversee project management to ensure design adherence, coordinate with contractors, and address onsite challenges.

Above all, the downside to building a new house is a longer timeline. You need several months to finish the build, depending on the supply chain and labor availability in the meantime. Building a home compared to buying one is also more expensive, both in the building process and when it comes to mortgage rates and property taxes.

Yes, architects help navigate local zoning laws, acquire necessary permits, and ensure compliance with regulations, reducing delays and costly modifications.

Palm Springs homes and similar mid-century modern architecture took off in Northern California, Seattle, and the Midwest. You'll also find many homes that emulate the style in northeastern states, such as throughout Pennsylvania and New York State. That being said, you'll have the best luck finding this style in its original home: Palm Springs and the surrounding area.
