"Andy Carimi is an absolute genius when it comes to architectural design! He recently designed my dream home and my family and I are living in it! We couldn't be any happier with the result. From our very first meeting, Andy listened to my vision, understood my needs, and provided invaluable insights that brought everything to life in ways I hadn't even imagined. His attention to detail, creativity, and ability to blend functionality with aesthetics are truly exceptional. What I really appreciated about working with Andy was how well he listened to me as the client. He made sure to fully understand what I wanted, but he also guided me through the design process in a way that was incredibly helpful. Andy didn't just take my ideas at face value; he helped me see what would work best from a design perspective, offering suggestions and improvements that truly elevated the project. He was never pushy, but his expertise and thoughtful recommendations made all the difference in the final product. Andy worked seamlessly with my Interior Designer and General Contractor. His communication and teamwork ensured that everything went smoothly, with all parties working together to create a cohesive, beautifully designed home. It really was a smooth process. If you're looking for an architect who's both a great listener and an invaluable resource, Andy is the one to work with. I'm beyond thrilled with my home, and I highly recommend him to anyone seeking top-notch design and personalized service. Thank you, Andy, for making my dream home a reality!"

"I had a fantastic experience working with this drafting firm. From the very first phone call, Kirsten?our drafting consultant? was clear, professional, and incredibly helpful. She explained the entire process in detail and made sure all of my questions were answered up front, which gave me immediate confidence in the team. This firm partnered with engineers and architects to get the best quote for me on a stamp for my plans after they did an exceptional job on drawing the prints that met all the requirements for permitting. Their coordination and attention to detail made the process very simple on my end. If you are looking for a highly capable drafting firm that knows how to get things done right, I highly recommend them!"

Architects questions, answered by experts

A home elevator is a fantastic way to improve your home’s accessibility. Elevators allow anyone, even those who use wheelchairs or walkers, to safely move between floors within your home.

Dumbwaiters may allow you to move items up and down floors, and stair lifts can move people up and down, but elevators are the best option if you need space for people, their belongings, and/or mobility aids such as wheelchairs.

That said, home elevators cost more than other options, such as stair lifts. Consider your needs and your budget when deciding the best way to make your home more accessible to a person with a disability or a person who is aging in place.

Most Greek Revival architecture homes are one and a half to two stories, depending on the footprint, which sets them apart from some Federal architecture homes that are three stories. The gabled roof on the second floor can sometimes cut into the living space, especially on smaller homes of this style, which leaves a much smaller living area upstairs.

In most cases, yes, hiring a draftsperson will be more affordable than the cost of hiring an architect. However, it’s important to note that the reason is because these professionals provide different services. Draftspersons are more affordable because they do more general mock-ups that help align your contractors with your vision for your home renovation project. An architect will provide more detailed drawings that include technical specifications, structural considerations, and even mechanical components, like electrical box and HVAC ductwork placement.

When conducting space planning, building codes and regulations need to be considered. As long as you are taking them into account and discussing them with the architect, you should be able to do your space planning appropriately.

If your project is complex, it may make sense to hire an architect to draw plans. An architect might also be a good person to hire if you want to ensure your plans adhere to building codes and regulations.
