RaBit Design Build
House Plan Companies
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 5, 2018
“This team was contracted to do the architectural work on an addition to my home. I sketched out the overall design. Nong listened and offered his suggestions. At the conclusion, his overall design and improvements when far beyond what I had envisioned. He walk through all the paperwork and time needed to get all the permits which allowed me time to take care of the family and talk about the new look. The project is still under construction, but I know my family and I will be happy with what we both (myself and Nong) envisioned.”
Studio Z Architecture
House Plan Companies
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 21, 2012
“Studio Z was the architect on a large home remodel project in which I was the interior designer. It was great working with Dawn. She was very easy to communicate with, very personable, and very open to collaborating with me on design ideas. I know that the clients on this project spoke very highly of Dawn as well. They thought of her as both friendly and professional. The home turned out beautifully and I know that the clients love the end result. They could not have been more pleased with her work. I would highly recommend Studio Z Architecture to anyone.”
Designlink Architecture and Interiors
House Plan Companies
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 11, 2015
“We hired Designlink Architecture to renovate our 1980's home. Nothing has been done since it had been built, and though the bones were good, it was dark, chopped up, with very poor room flow. Debra Weisberg, Architect, removed several walls and created new spaces for laundry, kitchen and master bathroom. Debra presented her proposal in such a manner that we knew exactly what our costs were going to be. No hidden costs. At our request, Designlink assisted us with the contractor's bid analysis. She then worked with the selected contractor throughout the entire remodel. We also utilized her interior decorating abilities. We found this internal capability a bonus. She is a good listener and is able to put your thoughts to paper and design. We are very happy with the work Designlink has done and we would highly recommend them. Frank McLanis”

“Glen is absolutely wonderful. I can't wait to hire him for my next project. He has such great new ideas”
Moser Architects PLLC
House Plan Companies
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 3, 2016
“I recommended Moser Architects, PLLC to everyone looking to build or renovate in the DMV area. Sarah took our quaint Cape Cod home in North Arlington and made it into a beautiful home for a growing family. We told Sarah how we wanted to keep the charm and curb appeal that fit the neighborhood, and she surpassed our expectations. Our home could not be more functional thanks to Sarah's expertise, and we are always receiving compliments. Our open floor plan with large amounts of natural light could not be more perfect. If we ever take the plunge to purchase another home in NOVA in need of renovations, Sarah will receive the first phone call.”

Jeanne Liem Architecture + Design
House Plan Companies
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 25, 2013
“I strongly recommend Jeanne Liem. My company worked with her on designing and building-out residential projects. Jeanne has a terrific aesthetic and is really hard working. She took the time to truly understand what we wanted and made our vision a reality. From beginning until the end, she has been very professional, responsive, proactive, and being able to come up with multiple solutions to simple and complex problems we encountered during construction. Their design elements are so elegant and well matched with our concept that exceeded my expectations in many ways. Also, they did all those within the budget requirements. They were flexible in all the areas we worked. She made everything so easy and smooth. I do not even want to imagine what would happen if we have taken another route instead of working with her.”
Allison Ong Shreffler, Architect / AOS Architect
House Plan Companies
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 30, 2014
“I have known and worked with Allison for many years. Allison has always been sensitive to budgets and construction timelines. She is responsive to inquiries and problem solving, and understands what designs would be appropriate for my target markets. Her designs have been sought after throughout my community, and I was happy that I had chosen her to design my homes.”

Architect or Building Designer FAQs
The duration of a project can vary significantly based on complexity, size, and customization level. On average, creating a custom house plan can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months. Itʼs essential to discuss timelines with your chosen company early in the process to align expectations.
Material selection and design trends significantly impact the sustainability, energy efficiency, and aesthetic appeal of your home. A reputable House Plan Company will guide you through selecting materials that align with your design preferences, budget, and the latest trends, ensuring a balance between style and functionality.
Before meeting with a House Plan Company, homeowners should compile a list of needs and wants for their new home, including the number of rooms, general layout preferences, and any specific features or styles they envision. Itʼs also helpful to establish a budget and collect images or plans that inspire you. Having this information ready will streamline the design process and ensure your visions are clearly communicated.
Open communication and setting clear expectations from the start are crucial to overcoming challenges. Select a House Plan Company that has a proven track record of effectively managing issues such as design changes, budget constraints, and navigating permits and regulations.
Examine their portfolio for diversity in design, innovation, and attention to detail. Look for projects similar in style or size to what you envision. Quality portfolios should also reflect the companyʼs ability to incorporate current design trends while adhering to functional requirements.
While some House Plan Companies offer construction management services or have partnerships with builders, others focus solely on the design phase. Itʼs important to discuss your needs and see if they can assist in the construction phase or recommend reputable builders who have experience with their plans
