October 17, 2012

“Ryan Duebber designed a powder room remodel including custom wood mirror frame, cabinet and shelf; copper sink, toilet, faucet, stone wall and stone/wood floor. He listened carefully to my requests. He created with thoughtful consideration to make the new design meld with the rest of the house, be a beautiful gem, and be completely functional. In his design he was able to solve all the potential problems I had thought of. He has terrific color sense and knowledge of materials and construction, was timely and within budget. He also was great help in resolving with the contractor a few issues that came up with the installation. Ryan was creative, professional, friendly, upbeat, thoughtful. The room now looks beautiful, beyond what I could imagine from the plans. My all around good experience was well worth his fee. Total project (design, materials, install) cost about $12,000.”

February 15, 2017

“We hired Tess for a kitchen redesign and remodel we had been dreaming of for years. From our first meeting, she was organized and professional, and she did an excellent job of explaining everything that we could expect - from her process and fees to what to look for in a contractor. She gave us many options, always keeping the needs of our family, the best use of the space and our design goals in mind. She never missed a deadline and was highly responsive to any questions or concerns we had. Once construction began, she remained active in the project and was always available to ourselves and the contractors to ensure that our shared vision came to life as planned. Her design skills are top-notch and her professionalism is first-class. We would definitely recommend Tess and Square Inch Design to anyone looking to redesign his or her space - and we would work with her again in a heartbeat!”

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

How do I find the best Cincinnati 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 Cincinnati 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 Cincinnati, OH 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 Cincinnati 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?
