Studio 6 Architects
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in El Toro
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 10, 2013
“I highly recommend Studio 6 Architects both from a professional and a personal point of view. As an interior designer, I have worked with Studio 6 on many projects from concept to completion. Rob & Brian's designs are well thought out, beautiful and meets the client's needs. They are professional and easy to work with. Unlike other architects who may create plans and that is the end of it, Rob & Brian are involved throughout the entire project. They are also very good at create a design to meet the client's budgetary restraints. As a homeowner, my husband and I hired Studio 6 to design our dream home for us. What impressed me most was how much they really listened to us. They incorporated everything from the big things like room locations to the little things like the overall "feel" we were trying to achieve. Also, Rob & Brian did a phenomenal job of adding interest to every area of the home, both inside and out. Interesting repeating arches in the hallways, a large niche under the covered loggia, an exterior that looks wonderful from all four sides. In my opinion, this is what mades a good architecture firm. I whole-heartedly recommend Studio 6 Architects.”

“As a real estate broker, property manager and investment property owner for over 15 years I have worked with may designers, contractors and sub contractors (Good and bad) Mark at GCC Designs is at the top of my list of professionals I can trust to do the job right the first time. He shows up on time, articulates the scope of the job in a way that is easily understood and executes on time. The value he provides is right in line with the cost of the job. He is currently working on a major job in my personal home that is moving along just as planned.”

Sennikoff Architects, Inc.
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in El Toro
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 14, 2013
“I'm scrolling thru Houzz and find pictures of our Bungalow that we own in La Quinta, California. It was designed by Sennikoff architects. We love this Bungalow it's beautifully done, we fell in love with the design of the home the first time we looked at it. It's magical inside of the home and outside of the home. Our family has grown and their visits are more frequent, we are in the process of building a new home in the same neighborhood, I so wish I had found Sennikoff Architects before we had started with someone else but I have a lot of his ideas saved which I am planning on using in the new home design.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 15, 2017
“Paul helped me with a remodeling project on my Dana Point rental home. We ran into some difficult issues in dealing with the planning and building department. Paul is a very experienced architect who knows the building codes very well. We got the permits and his architectural designs were great! I would definitely use Paul again.”
Buffett Design
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in El Toro
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 5, 2015
“After meeting with a few different architects, we hired Buffett Design for our whole house remodel. Tyler is friendly, real, and was very understanding in regards to our constantly changing ideas. When it was difficult for us to visualize the space based on the 2D sketches, he created a 3D walkthrough experience on the computer for us. This was so helpful for us to "walk through" the new space before construction even started!”

“Austin is a very nice person and we've working together for several years. Most of his projects are homes and I like his design a lot. I am so honerd to work with him as he is really professional and always provide us the most prompt feedback. Whenever we had any questions, he guided us very patiently, always. It was a pleasant working with him through these years and I am sure he will do better in his industry as he has a very strong personality and very responsible for his job! Good luck to him!”
Jeannette Architects
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in El Toro
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 20, 2012
“My wife and I hired Jeannette Architects to assist us with a major remodel (interior/exterior) of our 3,500 sq. ft. ranch style home in Newport Beach. The task: incorporate warm contemporary design into our 1970's "woody cabin." As a real estate developer and because it's our third major house remodel there were many design elements we knew we wanted but many more that we needed help with. As capable as Jeff (Jeannette) is with his design sense, we believe that it's his ability to listen to his clients, understand client goals, how we will live in the space and how that fits into our budget is what sets Jeff apart from other architects. The Jeannette team met aggressive time constraints, produced a thorough set of construction documents, were always quick to provide clarification and answers to our questions and were great resources for product and material options and information. True professionals that we would use again and confidently refer to others. Our project is nearing completion and I can't wait to share photos.”

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

How do I find the best El Toro 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 El Toro 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 El Toro, CA 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 El Toro 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?
