Featured Reviews for Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Birmingham

Architectural Resource LLC
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Birmingham
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 13, 2013
“My husband and I have followed Michael Klement, the Principal at Architectural Resource, at the Ann Arbor home shows and remodeling tours for years. His passion for the work he does is evident in everything he does, and is delightful to listen to during his tours. We've visited every home that has been open for tours and no two are alike. His talent is so broad - from respecting a classic Italianate design, to creating a found-art energy efficient modern masterpiece. He excels at listening to what the customer is looking for and delivering perfection. He blends brilliant design with smart, efficient, architectural engineering. After years of dreaming of what Michael could do for us, we were finally in a position to consider hiring him. He met us at our home and talked with us about our "ultimate vision of living". We can see how this approach could lead to the perfect personalized homes that we had toured. He walked us through the design process and laid out an estimate for pricing. After the meeting I was so energized and excited that it took 2 hours to fall asleep (it was way past my bedtime!). Ultimately, we couldn't find a piece of empty property with the location / features we wanted for a price that would allow us to build new with Michael. So we purchased a home with "potential" and are saving up for the chance to do a remodel/rebuild with him on this property. We wouldn't dream of working with anyone else.”
Labra Design Build
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Birmingham
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 4, 2013
“We wanted our bathroom completely redone and Rufino of Labra Design Build handled the whole project from start to finish. I gave him my list of must haves and he designed a digital rendering of what it would look like. From demolition to the final result he was always clean, courteous and considerate of our lives as he worked around us. We love our new bathroom and wish we had done it sooner. We would not hesitate to hire Labra Design Build for any other project and we highly recommend him.”
Angelini and Associates Architects
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Birmingham
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 22, 2013
“My husband and I originally worked with Brad and Theresa Angelini in 1991 when we bought our home. We did a whole house renovation. In addition to detailed architectural drawings they provided three dimensional models showing what the home would look like after the renovation. It was an absolute delight to work with them and a major plus to work with a husband and wife team. Over the years we have worked with them several more times on various projects including expansion of a room through an exterior wall, redoing the deck, roof, and siding, adding additional windows to the home, etc. Each time they have been wonderful to work with. Brad and Theresa are very thoughtful, creative, responsive, practical, genial, and professional. We highly recommend them.”
Kendall Design Build
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Birmingham
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 29, 2017
“I’d like to thank Terri of Kendall Custom Homes for an overall successful transaction. She understood my situation of being a first-time homebuyer and worked hard to address my concerns, customize the home to my preferences and meet tight deadlines. Her prices were fair and transparent and the property easily passed a scrutinous inspection by TechniHouse. I recommend KCH to any homebuyer in SE Michigan.”

Studio Z Architecture
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Birmingham
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.”
Joseph Mosey Architecture, Inc.
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Birmingham
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 2, 2012
“Joe's talent as an architect shines in his ability to create a aesthetically beautiful structure with comfortable and livable proportions. On more than one occasion, I have witnessed Joe's client presenting mixed signals in their tastes and budgets, yet Joe has been able to deliver a phenomenal design on the first draft. Equally as important, he treats his clients who are looking for marquis new homes with the same respect and thoughtfulness as those looking for a simple addition.”
S & S Homes, Inc.
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Birmingham
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 14, 2020
“From design to completion, S&S Homes does fabulous work. We contacted Tony in 2018 regarding a renovation project which required major construction. Oftentimes, projects like this are tough, especially living in the space while the renovation is in process, but they made the experience as smooth as possible. The work area was cleaned daily and communication through the entire process was excellent. We now have a much more usable, open concept layout. Thank you S&S Homes!”
Young & Young Architects
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Birmingham
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 7, 2017
“I have worked with Todd, Roger, Jarrett, Michelle and the entire remarkable staff at Young and Young Architects, on two beautiful custom home projects. Their exquisite designs, attention to detail and expertise are second to none. Young and Young Architects provide far more than just extraordinary designs and comprehensive plans, they work tirelessly with their clients, builders, subcontractors and material suppliers to achieve the perfect blend of architectural excellence and uncompromising livability. There are many architectural firms, but none I would recommend more highly and sincerely than Young and Young Architects...they are simply the best!”

They will also collaborate with other professionals, such as builders and contractors in Birmingham, to bring your dream home to life.

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.

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 Birmingham residential architect you hire.

  • What does the cost include?
  • Do you have professional liability insurance?
  • Can you handle my special requests (ADA, LEED etc.)?

  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any complications you foresee with this project?
As far as the process goes, the architecture firm or individual that you choose will start with concept drawings and finish with construction drawings and documents.
