My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Typical Job Cost

$150,000 - 10 million

Cost is based on the Project Scope (i.e. Home Addition; or Apartment Building) and scope of Architectural Services (i.e. Concept Design Services only; or Full Architecture Services). These determine approximate cost and fee percentage. Full Architectural Services for a new construction custom Residential project usually range from 9% to 10% of construction cost. Limiting the scope of services reduces this percentage. Commercial projects are typically less due to repetition and size.

Working with Nathan for my home was an absolute delight, deserving every bit of a 5-star rating. From the outset, their ability to grasp and enhance my vision was extraordinary, resulting in a design that perfectly melded aesthetics and functionality. Their unwavering commitment to quality, transparent communication, and adept handling of all project complexities made the entire process smooth and stress-free. The end result is a home that not only fulfills my dreams but also elevates my daily life. I wholeheartedly recommend this architect to anyone seeking a top-tier design and construction experience.

I wish there were 10 stars I could give! Nathan and his associates were amazing to work with. I gave them my price points and goals, and they offered a number of solutions/options for me to consider. I was initially intimidated by the process but Nathan made it so smooth. He was great listener and applied what he heard. He also helped me to see what could be done. He envisioned so much more than I realized could be done. I picked NFA because of their aesthetic...there just isn't work like this have seen in NOLA and now I can not speak enough to his professionalism and drive to both give me what I wanted and do a great job. You wont regret going with NFA!

Nathan Fell designed our new midcentury modern home on a lake in the midwest. He was true to all of our requests, but went far beyond in his inventiveness for both form and function. He is an architectural genius and we are grateful for his work. Ken and Jane Bohnert

Nathan is very good technically and a great problem solver. His support on our tricky project, an historic property in the Marigny Triangle, was invaluable. 100% recommend.
