"Pat has designed a number of homes of which I have lived in or have built for sale. Along with the structural engineer, everything worked well as planned. I can say for sure the design department is a real value as I have built other architect, drawn homes that cost much more to build not to mention the design fees. Pat has the experience , and the eye to design any type of build . DB now retired homebuilder."

Customers say: Quick response

"We had never worked with a landscape architect before so I wasn't really sure how it all worked. I have to say Bruce was great to work with. My initial meeting with Bruce was brief and I wasn't sure what to think. My husband and I then had 2 other meetings where Bruce showed us some preliminary drawings and together we came up with a design. It was a very easy process and we are really excited to get started with our project. Thanks Bruce!"

"From the point of contact to project completion, Forest Landscape professionals were responsive, creative, flexible and attentive to detail. With each step of the project, quality work was done with exceptional communication and high quality materials and workmanship. I was informed about where in the project we were, what to expect next and was offered opportunities for input as the work progressed. Before leaving the work site, the team checked with me and asked if I would walk through to identify any concerns or questions. All expectations were exceeded. I give Forest Landscape the highest possible recommendation."

"the work was completed ahead of schedule.  It is more solidly constructed than we expected and attractive in appearance.  Water runoff was redirected to house drainage system effectively.  We could not be happier with the completed work.  Communication with the company owner was always informative and his crew was excellent.  They completed the construction with no disruption of existing landscaping.  We highly recommend this company

Architects questions, answered by experts

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.

Drawing your own floor plans is acceptable for many kinds of projects, including interior design and room layout. You can use floor plan software to create the plans but keep in mind that the floor plan will only be as accurate as the measurements you take and enter into the software.

A construction manager is particularly useful in the case of a large-scale build with custom design elements, so it’s usually worth it to hire one. They can help manage your budget, maintain quality control, oversee timelines, and navigate unexpected hurdles. While construction managers are pricey, they can actually save money in the long run by identifying cost-saving opportunities and ensuring the project stays within budget.

The biggest upside to hiring an architect is that they will ensure an efficient building process without errors. They will also ensure your home is free from structural issues and that everything is up to building code. Many permitting agencies require architects to draw construction plans and layouts before working, so hiring an architect will also ensure your project is legal. Additionally, architects help homeowners have a clear idea of their project details before the project starts. Hence, they help unify all parties on a shared vision for the project.

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.
