Lisle Architecture & Design
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Northwest
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 26, 2014
“David's architectural and Ashley's design services are second to none. My wife and I started out with a big challenge for David (to turn the eyesore of the neighborhood into a place that we would be happy to call home), and he rose to the occasion and then some. The work product was second-to-none, and we keep coming back with new projects whenever we have a need. Ashley was a delight to work with as we gutted our living/dining/kitchen area, and she helped us create a space that our family loves to spend time in. The team at Lisle Architecture and Design is the best in town, and we can't recommend them highly enough!”

“A few years ago I had to relocate and leave behind my custom residential design business. I didn't want to leave my clients in the lurch and the first person that came to mind to take them over was Cory, He is extremely professional and did an excellent job; far beyond what I would have expected from anyone stepping into the middle of current projects. He is immensely creative with commendable problem solving skills. I highly recommend him to anyone who appreciates the talent he brings to any project, big or small.”
B + O design studio, pllc

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 12, 2012
“B + O design studio coached us while designing our green forever home. They led us through the process of figuring out exactly what we wanted in our new home. They helped us to think through the space, flow, comfort, orientation, lot characteristics, native landscaping, etc. The end result was a home we love! We can't think of anything we would have done differently with the house or the process! Highly recommend!”

“Simply put, Chuck is the best. He is one of most brilliant minds in architecture and is truly one of the most kind and thoughtful people we know. His first question to us was, "how do you want your house to feel?" And from that moment on he led us through a series of discussions that he used to create a design for our home and land that was more than we could have ever dreamed or imagined. We wanted it to feel like an old, well-loved farmhouse, a place of welcome refuge - where there was space for everyone but not cavernous - and we were starting with an empty field as the canvas. His attention to detail was so impressive - every single aspect of his design was drawn with great purpose. Everyone who comes to our home always comments on how it "feels" and we attribute that to Chuck's incredibly skilled design. It was a joy and a privilege to have the opportunity to work with him.”
Hood Herring Architecture Pllp
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Northwest
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 25, 2013
“We hired Mr. Herring to design a 5,000+ square foot home on the ICW. That project took place in 2000-2001. Mr. Herring had a unique capacity to "read our minds" as we moved along during the design stage such that the home became everything we wished for in our dreams. He was a fantastic on-the- spot architectural supervisor, holding the crew to the mission while gaining their respect along the way. The final product was fantastic. We were so pleased that we have had Mr. Herring design two additional homes for us since then. Thomas H van Arsdale”
Pfirman Architecture

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 1, 2014
“Pfirman Architecture is an excellent company to work with. We have built a number of their homes and really enjoy working with them. Kevins designs are sensitive to both the needs of the client and the site on which the home is built. Each project is beautiful and truly unique.”
Design House at Lumina
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Northwest
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 25, 2016
“Troy Kenny (Design House) designed the home in which we now live, and she has just finished designing a new home for us. We could not be more pleased. We have enjoyed our current home for 10 years. We've received numerous compliments about our home being one of the most attractive homes in Wilmington, NC. Troy is obviously a great talent. We love the informal cottage style with classic details that never go out of style.”
Michael R. McLeod Architect P.A.
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Northwest
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 19, 2018
“Yes, We used Michael McLeod for a beautiful beach home that we are building. We liked the plan that was a standard plan and then added some modifications. He accommodated our changes and worked with us on all parts of the design. We liked the plan since it had some unusual design elements and was different than any other one we had seen. He was able to more quickly modify the plan versus other architect which would have cost the same or more to change another plan. We needed to move fast at one point and he made it in time. He was licensed for the beach which our builder needed and the town accepted. He seemed expensive but I think these changes would have cost just as much anywhere. The cost of the original plan was appropriate I thought. Overall, it is working out as expected and will be a dream home for us.”
ROMERO ARCHITECTURE
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Northwest
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 7, 2014
“Rob Romero is a visionary that brings a breath of fresh air to our area architecture. His designs are thoughtful + creative--two extremely important qualities one would want when designing a home or workspace! Our firm has worked with Mr. Romero on several jobs in Wilmington, all clients 100% pleased with the final product. With those odds, you cannot go wrong!”

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

How do I find the best Northwest 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 Northwest 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 Northwest, NC 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 Northwest 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?
