"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 was looking for someone to handle blueprints and engineering for a home in the Florida Keys. Having built homes before, I’m familiar with the process and already had some sketches with a few changes I wanted to make. I found Evolution Drafting online, and Kristine walked me through everything clearly. Lindsey was assigned to my project after a quick introduction and a follow up she was AMAZING to say the least! The initial drawings were excellent, and any changes I requested were completed within days. Compared to another project that took nearly a year, this was incredibly fast and detailed. My wife and I are very impressed. I highly recommend Evolution Drafting LLC—ask for Lindsey on your project. Truly top shelf!!"

Architects questions, answered by experts

The various types of architects can be broken down into eight distinct categories, but there can be specific specialties within each of them. Most homeowners will work with a residential, restoration, green, interior, landscape, or retrofit architect for projects. There are also lighting and commercial architects whose work is geared more toward large spaces and businesses.

The most common scale for residential blueprints is 1/4 of an inch equals one foot. This scale is the most popular because it’s easier for everyone involved, from professionals to homeowners, to understand the building’s actual dimensions. Also, it allows blueprints to have the necessary details without cluttering the page.

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. 

You should have an architect involved in your project from the very beginning. They’ll be able to direct your vision into workable plans, and they can advise you on potential problems right from the start. You may be able to save money by not using an architect, but larger projects will go much more smoothly with an experienced pro directing the process.

The best way to start designing a house is to know what you want before designing. Making a list of your biggest priorities in a home will help. Designing a house without an idea of what you need or want in a home will lead to many trials and errors that could make it harder to figure out what you need in your design.
