"So I was caught in a bind.  My project was stopped by the village since my contractors were working without a permit.  Not knowing where else to go, I looked on Angie's list and found Lou at Tiderunner Engineering.  I explained to him my situation, and he was very understanding as I told him we had an architect that for some reason just stopped returning our calls, etc, and that I needed a set of floor plans to get the permit.  He came over the next day, and did a set of floor plans, with some structural changes as we knocked down a wall, and also was looking to adjust the beam structure in the kitchen.  Lou suggested using LVL headers, both flush and drop headers to support the structure of the house and prevent sagging.  If it wasn't for Lou, my contractors would have just left the work they were doing without the proper support, so thanks Lou!

After it was submitted, the building inspector, came back with a bunch of changes, and Lou explained to me that she was looking for a full set of construction plans.  This took me by surprise, but Lou was very accommodating.  He made the changes per the inspectors request, and the plans were finally approved and I could have my house renovated. Yaay!  If it wasn't for Lou, I don't know if another architect would have been as accommodating and have the same attention to detail that Lou did.

In addition to this work, we were looking to redo our driveway, and he was able to create a set of driveway plans, including structural support, drywells, piping, all in accordance to our village code.  We plan on undertaking that project in the next few months but I'm happy with how the plans came out, and look forward to the finished result."

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.

Architects questions, answered by experts

Building a house without blueprints is not advised. It will prevent you from obtaining necessary building permits and meeting building codes and is likely to result in shoddy construction and unsafe living conditions. Detailed blueprints ensure that a house is built to exact specifications and is constructed safely and structurally stable.

Yes, designers collaborate with contractors and engineers to ensure a smooth construction process.

Balancing aesthetics with functionality amidst space planning is important. To do so, you could consider consulting both an interior designer and an architect to fulfill both these needs. Or you can tackle it on your own by prioritizing personal touches amidst space planning that add to the look but don't take away from the livability of the space.

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.

Universal design is a design concept that states that products, spaces, and general environments are designed to be used by everyone, with an emphasis on accessibility for those with limited mobility or other special needs.
