My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Featured Reviews for Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Columbia

Transforming Architecture LLC
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Columbia
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 19, 2013
“Karen at Transforming Architecture was reccoemnded by my real estate agent as she had done work on his home. At our first meeting she gave us an idea of the scope of the projects she has accomplished and the fee structure. She really listened to our ideas and concerns for our kitchen renovation. Karen presented 3 visions for our renovation, one with exactly what we asked for and then two other options. The third design presented involved moving our kitchen and creating an open floor plan. This was beyond anything we could have imagined o our own and made the best use of the space and our renovation dollars. We are currently under construction but Karen is readily available to answer questions and make edits to the design. It is a pleasure to work with her and I can't wait to see her vision come to fruition.”
Nehemiah Construction LLC
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Columbia
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 11, 2017
“Working with Nehemiah Construction was an amazing experience. The owner was professional, active throughout the whole project and easy to communicate with. He was especially helpful in helping me choose a hardwood floor. The way he helped me understand what was best was an art form. He wasn’t pushy, just knowledgeable. I get so many complements on my hardwood floors to this day.”
Clarksville Construction Services
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Columbia
Average rating: 4 out of 5 starsJanuary 27, 2014
“Put in Cove lighting in media room and built screened in area under deck. The work was well done. Weather contributed a bit to a delay in finishing the outside work. The company is very busy and slow to provide estimates. Once contract is signed they keep to the schedule and if there is a schedule change they notify you in advance.”

Consulting with an architect in Columbia early on allows you to bring your residential vision to life in the most efficient and effective way possible.

  1. It’s best to involve an architect early in the planning stage of your project to benefit from their expertise and guidance.
  2. Hire an architect before selecting a builder or contractor to streamline the construction process.
  3. While there isn’t a specific time of year, consider engaging an architect during quieter periods like summer. It allows for more thoughtful discussions, better availability, and potentially shorter project queues.
