"Working with Ellen Marquardt was an outstanding experience from start to finish. She asked thoughtful questions to truly understand how we wanted to use the space, and her visuals—floorplans and 3D renderings—made decision-making easy and stress-free. Her deep knowledge and clear explanations of the “why” behind each design choice gave us total confidence in the process. Highly recommend!"

"Excellent experience. I submitted a request one afternoon and they were at my house the next morning. Brandon came up with a great design for landscaping around our pool as well as reinstalling the side lawn. The work was done extremely fast and crew was great. Will definitely be calling for our next project."

Customers say: True professional

"Eric and his sons Mark and Matt built a two story extension onto our log and vinyl shake home, and made the addition seamlessly appear as if it was part of the original construction. The end result is beautiful, inside and out, and we get so many compliments on the vaulted ceiling in the new construction - and a vault that they added to part of the original house. They were very pleasant to work with, and even were able to build a temporary interior wall which allowed us to stay in the house during construction. We highly recommend them."

"Jim Pappas is an architect with decades of experience. He developed a beautiful custom house plan for us but we decided to go with a different plan that was more affordable for us. He was professional, quick to respond and took the time to meet with us at the building site. I highly recommend him for your custom home design."

Architects FAQs, answered by experts

Consulting the architect of your house is not the best way to determine when it was built. Many homes are built by developers or builders, so there may not be a specific architect to track down—especially if you have a very old house. Instead, it’s best to rely on local government records.

Start by researching local contractors with experience in cottage construction. Ask for references, check licensing and insurance, and review completed projects. Compare multiple bids, making sure each includes the same scope of work. A good contractor will communicate clearly, provide a detailed contract, and ensure all work meets code and safety standards.

Regular meetings, reviewing drafts, and providing input on materials help align the project with your vision.

When planning a new build, meet with an architect as your first step. Architects will often work with specific contractors and can ensure the contractor on your project is qualified and experienced to handle your build. Both the architect and the contractor should be involved with the project from the early stages, but the process may be smoother when you start with an architect.

The most idyllic building material that encapsulates the feel of Federal architecture is a brick facade, often with bricks alternating between long side and short side. Palladium and arched transom windows are also prevalent, as are flat, white window lintels. More ornate Federal architecture buildings also include columns on either side of the front door. More important than most of the finer details, though, is the symmetry from the exterior. On the interior, ornate plaster moldings and plaster ceiling medallions are indicative of the style.
