Featured Reviews for Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Clackamas County

Summit Ridge Design LLC
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Clackamas County
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.”

“I have had two separate projects with Sasquatch architecture and both came in under budget and on time. Kris is very responsive and provides excellent suggestions throughout the development of the project.”
Cella Architecture

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 15, 2013
“I have had the pleasure of working with Erich on several projects throughout the years. On building projects, hundreds of problems will arise and how they are dealt with determines the true professionalism of an architect. Erich has never missed a beat on solving the problems with me on custom door and window orders and has come up with very creative solutions. It would simplify Erich's skills to just say he is detail oriented, he goes far beyond just details. He looks at the job as a whole and somehow manages to break every component down into sub assemblies and how they interact with each other. Not just how it's to be designed and built, but does the item work aesthetically in the overall design. Simply put, he is a pro, an absolute pro. I have always enjoyed working with him and look forward to working on the next project with Erich. Shawn Shallenberger Northwest Door and Sash”

“Pat did a fantastic job of designing a bump-out for my basement remodel to accommodate the new stairs I had to put in to meet code (very old house). I could not visualize what was going to be done to that part of my home and overall remodel until she walked me through the design, and then ---boom, it hit me! Light, windows, beautiful space utilization and best of all ---it looks like it has always been a part of the house ---does not look like a add-on at all. She was wonderful to work with, listened to what I wanted, and then provided a design to exceed what I thought I could have. She provided great drawings for the contractor and was just really good to work with. I have recommended her to many people and just can't say enough good things about her work and abilities!”

“Nick has been a pleasure to work with at every step of the process. Not only does he have great taste and obvious expertise, but he's also been incredibly patient as we work through our priorities for our house. Most importantly, he's 100% transparent about his role and the process—we have complete faith in Nick and would work with him again and again (if we ever have the opportunity to build another house).”

“Ely was excellent in eveything he does. He is very prompt and we loved working with him every step of the way. He came up with a great studio design for our 2nd location. He quickly drafted three different proposal after taking detailed measurements of the place. All designs were amazing. Once we finalize on the deisgn, he quickly put our permit application in with City of Portland for approval. The process was very efficient. He handled all steps of the process very professionally. We highly recommend working with him.”

“When we embarked on the journey of remodeling our house, we were looking for an architect who could understand our vision, breathe life into it, and ultimately deliver a home that exceeded our expectations. In this quest, we were incredibly fortunate to find David, a true master of their craft. From the very first consultation, it was evident that David was not just an architect but an artist. He took the time to listen attentively to our ideas, hopes, and desires, and quickly grasped the essence of what we wanted to achieve. Throughout the entire project, his attention to detail, commitment to quality, and creative thinking were truly exceptional. The design phase was a delightful journey, as David presented us with a range of innovative concepts that perfectly fused modern aesthetics with the unique character of our existing home. His ability to balance functionality and beauty was truly remarkable. We were involved every step of the way, and David patiently guided us through the decision-making process, offering insightful suggestions and solutions whenever we faced dilemmas. During the construction phase, David continued to shine. His strong project management skills ensured that the work proceeded smoothly and on schedule. The choice of materials, the precision of the craftsmanship, and the overall attention to detail were nothing short of outstanding. The end result of David's work is nothing short of spectacular. Our remodeled home is a testament to his vision, expertise, and unwavering dedication to creating a space that is as beautiful as it is functional. It is a place where we look forward to spending time with family and friends, and it has become a true reflection of our lifestyle and personality. David has not only transformed our house but also enriched our lives. His talent, professionalism, and passion for his work are evident in every aspect of the project. We feel truly fortunate to have had the opportunity to collaborate with such a gifted architect, and we wholeheartedly recommend David to anyone seeking a remodeling or design professional.”

“It has been a great experience working with Matt, I have called him with big and small questions throughout the process and he has either been able to answer them on the spot or quickly get back to me with a response. He was able to fit everything I hoped for into my 700sq/ft garage/ADU project and I am excited to see it come to life!”

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

How do I find the best Clackamas County 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 Clackamas County 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 Clackamas County, OR 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 Clackamas County 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?
