"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."

"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

Fees depend on project size, design complexity, required permits, materials, labor, and whether additional consulting services are included.

Open floor plans can come with drawbacks—mainly the lack of privacy and noise dampening. Walls act as an important barrier for traveling sounds, meaning in an open floor plan you could hear your dishwasher running while sitting in your living room. Storage limitations and separation of activities (for example, keeping the kid’s playroom away from the dining room) are other reasons some homeowners are opting out of an open floor plan.

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 essential difference between an architect and an engineer is that architects typically focus more on the aesthetic design of buildings, although not without consideration for the structural integrity of the building. Engineers focus more on the structural, technical, and practical aspects of whether and how an architectural design can be built as drawn. You may need to hire both types of professionals if you’re designing and building a new home.

With proper training and experience, reading blueprints is fairly straightforward and not very difficult. If you don’t have the necessary knowledge to interpret the symbols, abbreviations, and other notations used, blueprints may not make sense. Learning to read blueprints can help you understand the construction process and keep you more involved and informed when you’re building a house.
