Featured Reviews for Architects, Firms & Building Designers in Boise

Network Architects
Architects, Firms & Building Designers in Boise
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 16, 2013
“Network Architects provides outstanding designs and customer service. I have been subconsulting to their office since 2004. During that time I have observed very happy clients and well thought out designs. They established realistic timelines and have the ability to make cost conscious design considerations. I would highly recommend that any potential owner interview Network Architects before hiring a new design architect.”

“We couldn’t be more pleased with our new home... it’s truly a work of art!

Amanda Ryan Designs, LLC
Architects, Firms & Building Designers in Boise
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 23, 2020
“Amanda has been wonderful to work with. Right from the beginning, she took the time to listen to our needs and gave us a design that we asked for. We did not need to go through a lot of editing - just simple tweaks which she made quickly. I think her pricing is fair (seems like it would have been much more if I would have gone through a large firm - and would have taken longer) and I believe we received quality work. The contractors we have used to bid out our work have had very few questions, which makes me believe that she delivers a complete package.”
Absolute Design

“We asked Eric to design a remodel project and he nailed it the first time, it was perfect with no changes! Very friendly and professional! We were very impressed!”
Summit Ridge Design LLC
Architects, Firms & Building Designers in Boise
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 23, 2014
“If you’re looking for a very personable and enjoyable design process for your next home, look no further. After moving from out of state, we had purchased a view lot in a newly developed gated community and driving through one weekend, we stopped and talked to a neighbor who was working in their yard about their beautiful home and they recommended that we call the designer and gave us the number to Summit Ridge. We had talked to two others designers beforehand but after meeting with all three, there was no question who we wanted to work with and we couldn't be happier. The design of our home not only fits our new northwest lifestyle but its entire design was created around us. Each room was carefully planned out and is a reflection of our lifestyle. Highly recommended.”
Migration Studios
Architects, Firms & Building Designers in Boise
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 9, 2020
“My wife and I have worked with Cam on multi projects his patience, creativity and professionalism are unparalleled. The years he spent in design/build provided him the ability to design a buildable not a impossible project, always keeping the budget in mind. He listened and incorporated our ideas with design and options that were more unique then we could of imagined. We highly recommend working with Cam, Migration Studios, on any size of project.”
Gravitas
Architects, Firms & Building Designers in Boise
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 21, 2013
“Wow!...about sums up the experience we had collaborating with Gravitas, and the end design of our home which was dubbed 'The Afton'. Derek listened to our ideas, and his ability to make the smaller home have so much usable space was right up our alley. We are grateful for his insight, patience and suggestions which has lent themselves to subsequent projects. Anyone who has the pleasure of work with Gravitas, will be greatly blessed.”
J Truex Architecture
Architects, Firms & Building Designers in Boise
Average rating: 4 out of 5 starsMay 26, 2013
“Jevon designed an uncommonly attractive and functional house for us. He listened to our requirements and wishes, discussed structural and cost constraints, and put together a set of plans with which we were well pleased. The construction went smoothly with zero "redos" on the fly. Jevon was readily available to the general contractor, and on-site questions were quickly and efficiently answered. The only thing that could have been better, would have been a more energetic approach in dealing with the local bureaucracies. A longtime friend and architect from out of state visited last year and proclaimed, "This house captures your personality," which he deemed a high compliment among architects.”
ZODIAC DESIGN
Architects, Firms & Building Designers in Boise
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 9, 2013
“Mike Smith is wonderful with clients. We worked together at a large building company and met with several people to design and build homes. Everyone always loved the designs he came up with and loved working with him. I would recommend him in a heart beat. Mike was always easy to get a hold of and if he was unavailable he would call right back. Mike is proactive and always met his time frames for our clients. Thanks Mike and keep up the terrific design work!”

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

How do I find the best Boise residential design architect for my project?


It is best to hire a home 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 Boise 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 Boise, ID 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.

What sort of process can I expect from a residential architect?


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. Some firms even design with 3D renderings and videos, but that should not be assumed. There should be plenty of meetings between you and your building designer until you have agreed upon a design that you are completely happy with. Always keep in mind that the designer will have building codes to follow, and likely pre-existing design limitations when dealing with a remodel, so while they might not be able to execute your exact ideas they always have your safety and aesthetics in mind. One of the most important duties of a residential architect is to serve as managers and supervise most aspects of construction, as well as facilitate communication between all other contractors, so you can expect them to be present throughout the entire building process to ensure everything is executed as planned.

It is very important to hire the right professional for the job. Remember that the most well-known or established designer might not provide the best architectural services for your needs. It all comes down to the individual project. Research and ask people whose work you like for recommendations. It's important to have somewhat of an idea of the style of house architecture that you prefer, as well as the amount you would like to spend. Residential architect's companies in Boise, ID are typically filled with employees that are natural problem solvers. They will assess the entire situation and help you to solve your problems too. Don't settle for a single company too early. Call and interview a few. Make sure that you feel like your personalities will mesh well and that you like their professional perspective.

Questions to ask prospective Boise 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?
