Featured Reviews for Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Hidden Valley Lake

James McCalligan Architect
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Hidden Valley Lake
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 7, 2014
“My wife and I hired Jim's firm to design and draw our home in Sebastopol. We are extremely happy we went to them. Jim's use of glass and space is incredible. I have been around construction my whole life and have played designer a little on other homes but we are so glad we went to a true professional who has the kind of experience, imagination and vision that Jim has. His price was very reasonable for the quality product that he delivered - way ahead of his proposed schedule we might add! The house went together smoothly exactly as drawn! We would whole-heartedly recommend Jim and his firm - they were a joy to work with all during the process. He gave us great tips and recommendations on interior design too... Tom and Jessica C.”
Zeitgeist Sonoma

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 7, 2013
“The thought of remodeling our kitchen was very overwhelming. I had some basic ideas of things I wanted changed, but had no idea of where to begin. Jessica listened to my wish list and used her professional, creative style and came up with a classic plan that we are enjoying more that we could imagine. Jessica was such a delightful person to work with !!!”
Harris & Kasten, Inc.
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Hidden Valley Lake
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 17, 2013
“My husband and I have worked with Harris & Kasten since the late 1990s. They have done many projects for us, including our lovely home in Atherton. Our home is a combination of Italian and French design. Everything was done to a tee! We could not be more pleased with their knowledge of art, art history, history, architecture, etc. You cannot go wrong with them.”
Paul Hastings Design
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Hidden Valley Lake
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 11, 2017
“I am a realtor and Paul is my go-to for any kind of architectural guidance. I refer him with enthusiasm to both clients and colleagues. He is the ultimate professional - responsive, collaborative, and efficient with time/budget. Best of all, he's easy to be around. Highly recommend for anything from additions/revisions to custom-builds!”
Obie G Bowman
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Hidden Valley Lake
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 16, 2014
“We wanted a small, affordable house on The Sea Ranch coast. We had seen Obie's designs and loved them. We at first felt that what we were hoping to build would be too small and our budget too limited for Obie to be willing to take us on as clients. Wrong. He seemed honestly excited about designing a special home on a small budget. Obie talked to us about what was important to us in our home. He studied our previous home and asked pertinent questions. He listened and then creatively put all of our wants into a home filled with creative touches that make it small, modest in cost, and special. We love the end result!”
Farrell - Faber & Associates, Inc.
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Hidden Valley Lake
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 14, 2016
“My wife and I are currently using their services to build our dream home. Everyone we know who has built their own home before warned us that it would be extremely stressful. Farrell/Faber has made the experience an absolute pleasure. They have removed almost all the stress involved with the planning. They're very professional and responsive, and the plans they drew up were even better than what we envisioned! My wife and I couldn't be happier with their services.”
The Design & Building Works
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Hidden Valley Lake
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 28, 2020
“The Design and Building Works was key in obtaining my building permit from the City of Santa Rosa. I was in need of having drawings, plans, and specifications done for the conversion of my garage into a 1 bedroom unit, an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU). The Design & Building Works put together drawings and specifications that required only one review by the Santa Rosa Building Department in order to issue me the required building permits. The drawings were complete in regards to referencing all of the required building codes, specifications and on calling out all of the correct details. Ellen Picard, owner is really easy to work with, detailed oriented, and has a very good reputation with the City of Santa Rosa Building Department. I highly recommend her and I would hire again for any project without a second thought.”
RGArchitecture
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Hidden Valley Lake
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 22, 2016
“I hired RGA for a guest house in Montana [on this site]. They did a fabulous job turning my tear-sheet ideas into a beautiful structure. I am now [7/16] working with them in creating the main house. It is going to be extraordinary. RGA creativity is matched by their attention to detail and responsiveness to the many small but important issues that arise during the building process.”
Strening Architects
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Hidden Valley Lake
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 4, 2013
“Daniel Strening provided a vision with specific details that helped us link previous remodeling jobs into an integrated, beautiful space which links our outdoor and indoor areas seamlessly together. His skill at listening to our wants and needs resulted in several meetings where his solutions for technical problems encountered were masterful, and as a result, our new farmhouse-inspired kitchen has become the spot where our large family loves to live. I highly recommend Daniel, not only for his training as an architect, but also for his training in landscape architecture, which gives him an ability to understand the link between inside and outside.”
Harrison Woodfield Architects
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Hidden Valley Lake
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 8, 2014
“After our house was destroyed by fire, we needed help to redesign a home that would help us heal from the loss. Sara Woodfield came to the rescue with the most innovative, practical, exciting design guidance we could ever have hoped for. In addition to her outstanding architecture and building acumen, Sara has the people skills of a top-notch therapist! She was able to bridge gaps between all parties involved amicably and to everyone's satisfaction. We are eternally grateful for the tremendous guidance we received from Harrison Woodfield.”

Is the scope of your home design project beyond simply replacing countertops or flooring? It’s the responsibility of a Hidden Valley Lake home architect to transform human needs and desires into visual concepts and habitable structures. When you hire an architectural designer, you are not only hiring someone for their architectural services, but also to manage and coordinate other parties involved in the project. As you search through local Hidden Valley Lake, CA architectural firms and designers, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one: 

How do I find the best Hidden Valley Lake residential design architect for my project?


It is best to hire a residential architect who will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. They are often the first person you will hire for your project, and it's common for architects' contractors, or subcontractors, to prefer working with one another, which means better relationships and smoother work on your home. Interior architects are also involved in negotiating contracts for all involved participants, from builders, to engineers and even landscapers. It is for these reasons that it is extremely important for you to have a good relationship with the Hidden Valley Lake residential architect you hire. He or she can be the tie-breaking vote between you and the general contractor and can be your biggest advocate during the construction process. Different residential architecture firms in Hidden Valley Lake, CA provide different services, so the scope of the work can span from pre-design environmental impact studies to selecting furniture and finishes, depending on what your specific needs are.

Questions to ask prospective Hidden Valley Lake interior architects:


  • What is your fee structure?
  • What does the cost include?
  • Do you have professional liability insurance?
  • Can you handle my special requests (ADA, LEED etc.)?
  • What types of renderings (3D, video, illustrative) will you produce?
  • What is your experience with similar projects?
  • When do you expect to start and be finished with the project?
  • What do your services include? (It's best that the services are until construction is completed.)
  • What happens when the cost exceeds the budget?
  • Can you provide me with references?
  • Would you say your work has a defining style? (This is important in case the architect's personal style will interfere with your vision.)
  • Will you help with hiring a general contractor and subcontractors?
  • What do you estimate the cost will be?
  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any complications you foresee with this project?
