You know the owner has spent his money well. Surprisingly, the design fees of gifted architects are not necessarily any more expensive, especially when you consider the impact on your investment. The difference in enjoyment of an ordinary house and an exceptional house is astounding. When you select your architect you are choosing either acceptable or exceptional design. No one aspect can effect your enjoyment or the real estate value more. A learned, listening professional will discover your desires and interests, enhance and combine them into a delightful composition. The most accomplished architects, are knowledge and have uncommon heightened sensitivities and awareness. Their training and experience reveal the most important aspects of your site, using them to your advantage: views, landscape, topography, sunlight, scale of house for the neighborhood. All these things that are often not even considered by the less thoughtful or trained. A beautiful building is always beautiful for years to come, while half way thought out design has a short shelf life. The expiration date comes all too quickly. For years, you have suffered the unnecessary compromises of bad design. Then you sell for less money than a house that you could have enjoyed. The difference in sales price can be significant, and more than makes up for any difference in design fees. Not to mention, the years of enjoyment of a property is its own reward. ### Services Provided - Architectural Design - Building Design - Home Remodeling - Architectural Drawings - House Plans - New Home Construction - Home Additions - Home Extensions - Kitchen Design - Kitchen Remodeling - Floor Plans - 3D Rendering - Bathroom Design - Space Planning - Home Restoration - Historic Building Conservation - Project Management - Barn Design & Construction - Basement Remodeling - Mudroom Design - Basement Design - Attic Conversion - Tiny House Construction - Staircase Design - Garage Design - Laundry Room Design - Landscape Plans - Home Gym Design & Construction - Custom Homes ### Areas Served - Dallas - Irving - Richardson - Oak Lawn - Coppell - North Dallas - Farmers Branch - University Park - Highland Park ### Typical Job Cost $1 million - 30 million ## Business Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Business Name | J Wilson Fuqua & Associates Architects | | Address | 3618 Fairmount Street, Dallas, Texas 75219, United States | | Phone | (214) 528-4663 | | Website | http://www.wilsonfuqua.com | | License Number | 11517 (TX) | | Followers on Houzz | 253 | **Social profiles:** - Blog — wilson@wils ## Contact - **Houzz profile:** [J Wilson Fuqua & Associates Architects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/architects-and-building-designers/j-wilson-fuqua-and-associates-architects-pfvwus-pf~151352279) - **Website:** http://www.wilsonfuqua.com - **Phone:** (214) 528-4663 ## Credentials - **Best of Houzz:** 6 awards (2014–2021), for Design, Service. **Affiliations** - [The American Institute of Architects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/schools-and-organizations/the-american-institute-of-architects-pfvwus-pf~1350720471) ## Reviews **Overall rating: 4.7 out of 5 — 14 reviews** *Aspect averages:* - Work Quality: 50.0 - Communication: 50.0 - Value: 50.0 ### Reviews **★★★★★ — M.

He made the impossible not only possible, but beyond beautiful during the renovation of our home in Dallas.

Wilson has a rare sensibility for classical architecture in a modern world. I don't know of another architect in the area that is a better resource for restoring classical designs.

He is excellent with solving challenging problems of scale, flow, functionality, and style. He is very thoughtful and creative when it comes to attention to detail and keeping integrity of the house (if doing a renovation). We are on a narrow lot which presented some unique challenges when it came to floor plans/design and lot coverage as we are building a mother-in-law suite/guest house on the property as well. Wilson is the best in town and has a true passion and dedication for his work. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a truly custom and wonderfully live-able home. > Side Note: My husband and I both work and he has gone above and beyond to accommodate our work schedules. **★★★★★ — Maribeth Peters Team of Allie Beth Allman - Dallas, Dec. 2014** > I referred my real estate clients to Wilson Fuqua and he was an absolute delight. The renovation on their home in the Old Preston Hollow estate area is absolutely stunning. I recommend Wilson to any client that wants to maintain the architecture integrity of their home while updating for their current needs. Simply the best. ## Selected projects - [Southwetern](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/southwetern-pj-vj~2471551) - Location: Dallas, TX - Photos: 2 - [Santa Barbara Mediterranean](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/santa-barbara-mediterranean-pj-vj~2463417) - Location: Dallas, TX - Photos: 19 - Description: Published in Veranda Magazine June 2017 Issue. - [Orangery](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/orangery-pj-vj~2463526) - Location: Highland Park, TX - Photos: 11 - Description: Featured in Veranda February 2017 Issue. - [Highland Park English Ecletic](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/highland-park-english-ecletic-pj-vj~221715) - Location: Dallas, TX - Photos: 18 - Description: Classical and English Tudor home with contemporary and colonial revival elements situated on the historic and picturesque Armstrong Parkway in Highland Park, Dallas.
