When working with an architect, it’s essential to understand what to expect throughout the process. This helps ensure that your project runs smoothly and that you end up with the space you’ve always dreamed of. Here’s a look at what you can expect when working with an architect:

1. Initial consultation: The first step in working with an architect is to schedule an initial consultation. During this meeting, you’ll discuss your goals and vision for the project, and the architect will ask you questions to understand your needs better.
2. Pre-Design: Before the architect can begin designing your space, they’ll need to conduct a site analysis. This will involve assessing the location, topography, zoning, and other factors that could impact the design of your project.
3. Schematic Design: Once the site analysis is complete, the architect will begin creating a design concept for your project. This may involve creating drawings, sketches, or computer-generated images to help you visualize the space.
4. Design development: After the design concept has been established, the architect will move on to the design development phase. This will involve creating detailed drawings and specifications for the project and making any necessary revisions based on your feedback.

Cost To Hire An Architect to design your house or remodel

Would you like to know what it costs to hire an architect for your house project in the San Francisco Bay Area? Whether you want to remodel or build new, David Locicero, answers your burning question: How much will it cost to draw up my plans?

An Architect’s Own Humble Renovation and Extension

Sometimes you don’t need to do much to have a huge impact, and the home of Melbourne architect John Liu of Inbetween Architecture is a testament to that idea. Their 1970s home had great bones, plenty of natural light, and a fantastic north-facing backyard, but his family was beginning to outgrow the space. After a year of finding the right design, a new main bedroom suite was really all that was needed, with a new entry and corridor to connect the new with the old.

The entry and corridor space is the hero of the home, with John including his cultural heritage of been born and raised in Taiwan with Japanese rituals. This entry space gave John, his family and guests a place to take off shoes before entering, as well as a place to store bicycles, scooters and other larger items. The corridor has a built-in bench seat that overlooks and connects with the backyard, and provides a sunny place where you will often find John working, taking phone calls, having a cup of coffee and his children drawing. This corridor is not just a corridor, it’s a space to stop, it’s a place to relax. John wanted to explore the idea of the entry and corridor being more than just a place you walk through.
