Green Team Design, Inc.
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Castle Shannon
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 2, 2015
“Mark was extremely responsive and proactive in regards to our remodeling plan. He took the time to really listen to our needs and support the enhancements we wanted to make to our house while juggling the limitations of our budget with architectural requirements. His design beautifully represented both me and my husbands preferences (which were on both sides of the spectrum). He was very polished and professional throughout the process. We highly recommend him to anyone that wants to work with a very good professional home designer that will continually work with you and respond quickly to questions/comments,”

“Peter is one of the best small architects in Pittsburgh. J. Francis Company has built a number of his designs, and relishes each opportunity. He and his staff have a streamlined delivery process with cutting edge design.”
Andrew Novak Architect
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Castle Shannon
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 3, 2015
“We hired Andy to design and draw plans for our remodel which included expanding and re-configuring our kitchen, moving our basement stairs, re-configuring our entry, adding closets to our bedrooms, remodeling our master bath and adding a front porch. Andy was very knowledgeable on both the code requirements and design considerations. Andy was a great listener who provided me with multiple design options. He was easy to work with, level headed, creative, on time, and within budget. I would highly recommend Andy!”
Cipriani Studios
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Castle Shannon
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 22, 2015
“I've worked with Justin and Cipriani Studios in the past at a previous firm. We worked side by side with Justin to help develop his projects. He has a very keen eye for the crisp lines and modern details that make his projects really pop. I've always thought of myself as one of the more pragmatic architects, while Justin is much more the dreamer and visionary, and it shows in his beautiful and original designs. He's one of the few architects or designers I know who is putting out really high end modern design in the Pittsburgh region, and it's a truly refreshing experience compared to so many of the cookie cutter suburban developments that continually take place. Justin is willing to take a risk on good design and urban infill projects, and it's paying off!”
Devlin Architecture
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Castle Shannon
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 14, 2015
“Devlin Architecture designed an addition for our home when our family was young. 18 years later, we are still delighted with the results and regularly receive compliments from visitors. Doug has a great eye, and some of his recommendations, such as higher ceilings and an upstairs deck and pergola outside the master bedroom, remain much appreciated. We also benefited from having Doug oversee a contractor who was not always paying close attention to detail. Highly recommend!”
AM Architecture

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 4, 2013
“AM made a sight visit with us for the potential building we plan to do of our dream home on a premium lot. He fit us into his schedule, was prompt and professional, and had excellent ideas and showed us how he would implement them.”
Wilson Architecture + Design, LLC
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Castle Shannon
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 2, 2013
“Maria was the architect for our renovation of a historic warehouse bay into the office for our new self storage business. She had to deal with architectural challenges in the conversion as the old space didn't automatically meet our needs. There were more challenges as our sub-contractors original specs wouldn't work in practice. Maria jumped up and took care of these problems often before we knew they were problems. As the founders of our business were all "design challenged", it was great to have an architect with great interior design skills as well. The results were great and allowed us to launch our business in grand fashion. You can see pictures and video of Maria's work on our website at www.citycenterselfstorage.com.

Darrell C Kauric Architect LLC
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Castle Shannon
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 26, 2015
“Approximately seven years ago my wife and I started to explore various options of expanding our home for our growing family. We I connected with Darrell through one of my wife's best friend who had hired Darrell. The journey began with what we "thought" made the most sense which was to build a four-season room with additional basement space below along with a detached 2-car garage as we had a 1-car garage. Darrell helped make our vision a reality on paper added sensible touches and value engineered the job. Having never had a job of this size (I get it that in reality it was pretty small), we experienced sticker shock when the bids came back and could not justify to investment to get any reasonable return on our investment. So we paused and gave more thought as to another strategy which was to go out the other side of our house with an open kitchen over a 2-car garage. Sounds simple but ask him to show you the photos. Not only does the space work but he made the house flow inside beyond our expectations. He also helped in re-imagining closets, powder rooms, a second floor bath an an office for my wife. We get rave reviews. Now four years after we completed the project, we are confident it was absolutely the best thing we could have done. Our builder commented several times to me that he appreciated the extensive notes on the drawings as it left very few change orders in the end. We have recommended Darrell to neighbors, family members and anyone who asks. You won't be disappointed if you work with Darrell. He is a joy to work with. He has great vision but also is a great listener. His guidance in the process was invaluable. I don't think we will move anytime soon but if we did and needed to do the work again, we know the architect we'll call. Chris and Maureen H. Fox Chapel, PA”

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

How do I find the best Castle Shannon 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 Castle Shannon 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 Castle Shannon, PA 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 Castle Shannon 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?
