Glidden Drafting Services
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Athens
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMay 27, 2015
“My husband and I hired Glidden Drafting to make some changes to a “barndominium” plan that we purchased online. Matthew, the owner, is very knowledgeable about building requirements and advised us accordingly. He created a plan that is exactly what we wanted. We’re extremely pleased with his professionalism and fast turnaround. We are planning on using Glidden Drafting again when we build our house. Highly recommended!”

“Bird &Kamback are fabulous architects. Great at listening and then creating exactly what you want and more. They did the drawings for an historic home for me. But what impresses me the most, is their ability to switch gears between historic properties and more modern designs. Whether it be a home or commercial building, I highly recommend them.”

“I hired Bob Martignoni on the recommendation of my builder. I found him to be knowledgeable and efficient, as well as personable. I had searched the Houzz site to find examples of houses that I liked. He was able to design a house exactly as I conceived it. His work was timely and fair in cost. Any design changes were done promptly and strictly on an hourly basis. I have enjoyed working with him and would recommend him highly.”

Is the scope of your home design project beyond simply replacing countertops or flooring? It’s the responsibility of an Athens 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 Athens, AL architectural firms and designers, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one: 

How do I find the best Athens 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 Athens 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 Athens, AL 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 Athens 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?
