"The design was sophisticated, creative, AND within my budget. During the design process different options were considered and refined and resulted in a efficient construction phase with zero delays. Throughout construction I always felt as if Kristi (the Architect) always had my best interest in mind. There were frequent visits and reviews of the quality and completeness of the work and any questions I had were answered quickly. The entire process - from design to completion of construction - was absent any of the drama I have experienced from other construction companies! I give Amethyst Contracting my highest praise and recommend them without hesitation."

"We met Matt Trenkle at a home show in Madison. We were not looking for a cookie-cutter architect, we needed an eco-oriented designer with experience in alternative materials building. We were drawn to Matt's booth because his display showed that his work was right up our alley. We described our unusual plan and he was eager to take it on. Through a few exchanged emails we further discussed our needs, and he put together a proposal for the work. He is a personable and dynamic architect and worked up a thorough and very clear proposal for us, with a reasonable estimate for the work we were requesting. I am sure he would be very easy to work with and a good communicator, and he gave us confidence that he was ready and capable of doing the work we needed and flexing with us as we worked through the design issues together. As it turns out, we decided to go with a local architect instead (we are based in Madison and Matt is in Milwaukee). His proposal was for design development and construction drawings for a 1000 sq ft passive solar earth bermed house made of earth-covered tire bales with an incorporated greenhouse."

"At our initial conversation I was extremely impressed with Jack’s knowledge and expertise. When his crew got to work it was clear that they are very hard workers also very knowledgeable. They take pride in their work and the end product is outstanding. The wall they completed was extremely challenging. I would hire them again in a heart beat. The pathway is stunning and they improved the layout of our yard. You would not go wrong to hire them."

"Evolution design worked with me on designing and addition for a 100 and 5 year old house. We worked on the dimensions of the addition Plus the materials. Evolution understood the local zoning which was amazing that they knew that. We have not started construction. And evolution can help pull the permits and I'm considering them for that as well. All in all it was a long project but it was done efficiently, working with several of the staff an the departments."

"Hired Tyler Moore architect to design a moderately sized detached garage, 26W x 28 L. I sent Tyler my mock-ups and sketches and he took over to design the garage. Tyler verified all of the zoning, building codes, and other requirements so I would not have any issues building the garage. The garage design was perfect, the garage build is underway August 2026. Tyler pulled permit as well. In addition, a bazillion calls were necessary to Tyler during the garage build to help me wade through the minutiae while the guys were building the garage. Tyler checked even more specs for those questions and provided confirmation for my questions. The cost structure is superb by all means. I ave an additional construction project of an R2 property pending in the next year or two. Tyler will be on board for that project. You may hire Tyler in confidence and be assured of a high quality architectural design for any project. Astounding support before, during, and after. Thank you Tyler again!"

Architects questions, answered by experts

A construction manager is particularly useful in the case of a large-scale build with custom design elements, so it’s usually worth it to hire one. They can help manage your budget, maintain quality control, oversee timelines, and navigate unexpected hurdles. While construction managers are pricey, they can actually save money in the long run by identifying cost-saving opportunities and ensuring the project stays within budget.

Get prepared to meet with an architect by having a clear idea of what you’re looking for, a list of questions to ask, and as many project details as you can provide. The more information you can provide and receive from a prospective architect will help you decide who to hire.

A structural engineer's report provides a professional assessment of a property's structural condition. It typically includes an evaluation of the foundation, key structural elements like roof trusses, floor joists, studs, beams, and rafters. The report will also contain a detailed description of the engineer's findings, often supported by photographs, and provide recommendations to correct any identified issues. Depending on the scope of the inspection, it might also include an assessment of property drainage, potential issues from environmental conditions like extreme weather or tree placement, and an estimated time and cost for any recommended repairs.

British architect John Nash is credited with creating the Italianate style of architecture. The style was further popularized in the U.S. by landscape architect Andrew Jackson Downing and architect Calvert Vaux. The style spread across the U.S. due to Downing’s popular book on the style and the availability of plans and materials due to the mass production of the Industrial Revolution.

The process involves initial consultation, concept development, detailed planning, regulatory approvals, and integration of contractor work for project execution.
