"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

Structural engineers draw structural plans, which include detailed drawings of the structural components of a home only. Complete house plans will require additional work from an architect or draftsperson, whose drawings will take the structural drawings into account. They’ll also include more details about the finishing materials and layout of a home, including everything from roofing and flooring materials to the position of furniture, light fixtures, switches, and plumbing fixtures.

While towers and turrets are frequently present in Queen Anne-style houses, these design elements are not necessary for a home to be considered a Queen Anne. Turrets and towers add visual interest and unique interior spaces, but many Queen Anne homes do not contain these features. 

You have three options in terms of professionals who can draw up blueprints: a draftsperson, an architect, or a structural engineer. A draftsperson can sometimes draw up plans for new construction, but they more often work from approved plans for alterations or to provide 3D drawings. Architects are usually the best option for standard residential construction projects. Structural engineers might be necessary for custom home builds or for alterations that could affect your home’s structural integrity. Draftsmen cost the least of the three, followed by architects and then structural engineers.

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.

Whether you’re building a new home or building an extension on your existing property, you will likely need both a structural engineer and an architect. A structural engineer will determine what loads your foundation and framing can safely handle, and an architect will draw plans according to those structural calculations to simplify the building process. You can start by contacting a structural engineer near you, as many work alongside architects and can get all of the prep work done at once.
