"Our goal was to have the outdoor project look as if it was original to the house and done by the builder. We worked with David and used his entire process which included meeting and using his landscape architect (Gail Fraizer) and his Design Architect (Mike Studer), who's designs were important to the project. David took ownership and when snags happened he was accountable and quick to remedy. Our project exceeded our expectations and all of our guests immediately migrate to the outdoor area and are"

"As the Career Coordinator for Mt. Auburn Preparatory Academy, I had the pleasure of working with Brian. Before starting expansion for our career center, I researched architects through Angi's list to ensure we would receive a top-notch architecture firm. I am pleased to recommend Brian and the Kian Architecture Firm wholeheartedly. I was impressed by this firm's professionalism, attention to detail, and promptness. Communication is important when dealing with changes, as they take place on every project, and this firm was on point every step of the way. Brian exceeded my expectations! We were truly pleased with our result, and they remained in constant contact with us throughout the project. Highly recommend them for your next construction project!"

Architects questions, answered by experts

Depending on what the blueprints are for, a qualified draftsperson, contractor, or architect can draw them up. In some cases, including specialty permitting for a build, you may be required to use a licensed architect. 

In many cases, a blueprint drawn up by a certified professional is required before a city or municipality approves a permit. 

An architect is usually involved in the process of determining the layout and structural features and requirements of the home itself, taking into account the local codes, climate, and materials needed to make the home structurally sound. Architects may communicate more with contractors and subcontractors throughout the building process. In comparison to architects, interior designers typically focus on the aesthetics of a home interior and possibly exterior, helping the homeowner decide on color schemes, textures, and materials to incorporate into the design. 

Cathedral ceilings make a statement in your home, but at the cost of your attic space. Normal attics are wide open, which allows warm air to move around and exit your home. Because of this, cathedral ceilings make your home less energy efficient and put your ceiling at risk of venting issues if you’re not careful. They also reduce your attic storage space, potentially cause an echo, and even make it harder to change a light bulb.

The essential difference between an architect and an engineer is that architects typically focus more on the aesthetic design of buildings, although not without consideration for the structural integrity of the building. Engineers focus more on the structural, technical, and practical aspects of whether and how an architectural design can be built as drawn. You may need to hire both types of professionals if you’re designing and building a new home.

Arched windows used to be most prevalent in more traditional home styles, like Spanish colonial and Gothic, but they are becoming increasingly popular in modern design. You’ll often find arched windows in new home builds across many styles, including farmhouse and contemporary architecture. This represents a more general trend toward more unique houses with interesting features.
