We provide architectural, structural, and mechanical engineering services, utilizing over 30 years of experience in technical design, construction management, and design build services. We "listen" to our clients and solve and implement creative designs based on their needs. Kesselman Architectural Design, LLC services all of PA, NY, and MD. Typically, a set of construction documents requires only one on-site visit to gather on-site environmental and existing building conditions. We find communication on most projects, whether local or distant, is usually completed via phone and internet. There exists a triad between 3 major project aspects as quality, time and cost. A successful project requires a balance of the three. A well detailed set of construction documents will allow contractors to bid on the same "scope of work," competitively, thereby saving time and money. Our documents solve thousands of questions and become the basis of a solid legal contract.

"I got lucky. I found Lynn on a website and he was the only one with all 5 stars...now I know why! He was so wonderful to work with; knowledgable, responsive, and patient as they come. He worked within my budgetary requirements and even recommended a builder that I decided to work with. I cannot say enough great things about Lynn and highly recommend him to anyone looking for the best architect! If I could give him 10 stars, I would!"

Architects questions, answered by experts

Costs vary depending on project complexity and scope. Architects generally charge a percentage of the total budget or an hourly rate for their services.

Many drafters go on to continue their education and become architects. Drafting is a necessary skill for architects, so learning drafting is often the first step on a path toward becoming a licensed architect. Drafting can also be a career on its own, with plenty of drafters choosing to specialize and focus solely on drafting.

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.

Stone, marble, and brick are common building materials of Neoclassical architecture, though you will also find wood flooring and a range of natural stone tiles. Since several home styles fall under Neoclassical architects' umbrella, a range of building materials—including traditional wood framing—will make an appearance.

Blueprints for standard home construction will usually range from $1,500 to $2,500 and average around $1,800. Your pricing will likely be higher if you’re building a custom home, as you’ll need to pay a structural engineer to weigh in on building safety. The size of your project, the number of rooms, and the type of drawings you need can also play a role in your total cost.
