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

Simonson Design USA
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Dorchester
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMay 6, 2021
“After interviewing several architects, we chose Simonson Design to create our dream home at Lake Texoma. We provided our vision, and Alex, our architect, created not only what we envisioned but architectural features that enhanced and went beyond our vision. What is more, Alex exhibited extreme patience with the multitude of changes that we made to the plan. The 3D platform made it easy for us to see exactly where these changes needed to be made. We just received the final plans. They certainly exceeded our expectations. We are elated and cannot wait to build our dream home. The photo is a picture of our property, waiting for our dream home to be built. We could not be more pleased with our decision to hire Simonson Design to create our vision.”
Heritage Design Studio
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Dorchester
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 12, 2011
“We hired Chrisopher to design a home with an in law suite that would suit not just my family but my extended family. His ability to translate concepts/ideas/preferences/thoughts into a well though out, practical, creative home design goes above and beyond anything we could have anticipated. We are simply awed time and time again by his almost instantaneous grasp of how to redesign a space in a matter of seconds into something even better than what we had envisioned. Simply put, architectual design is in Chris' DNA and it is reflected in the beauty and creativity of the homes and floor plan designs. Should we require home design services again in the future, we would not hesitate to engage Heritage/Chris and would recommend them to anyone looking to embark on the nebulous journey of home design.”
Ellyn Amador, Architect
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Dorchester
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 8, 2017
“Complete kitchen and living area remodel as well as master bedroom addition. Ellyn's timeless design helped us gain the full potential of our 50+ year old home. We have storage, open floor plan and flow which were lacking in the original home. Her idea of open shelving in our kitchen is one of my favorite features. Skylights in the master bathroom bring in natural light while maintaining privacy.”
L. Lumpkins Architect, Inc.

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 27, 2013
“I highly endorse L. Lumpkins. His attention to detail, customer service, and architectural knowledge places him as one of the best.”
Symmetry Architects
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Dorchester
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 26, 2012
“We can easily give the highest rating for Clint Pearson with Symmetry Architects as we are ecstatic about the design of our new home! Being neophytes to building a new home, we did not initially understand how Symmetry’s role would integrate with our builder. But Clint listened to our vague ideas of what we wanted (large wine cellar, sport court, minimal hallways, outdoor kitchen, living areas, anticipated layout of existing furniture, split bedrooms, etc.) and created a layout that far exceeded our expectations. For example, he designed a small courtyard with fire pit that we are using constantly. He added groin vaults that add a very dramatic touch to our entry and master with minimal cost. He went room-by-room to design ceilings to meet that room’s personality. His breadth of home design is apparent as the “little details” were addressed. Symmetry worked exceptionally well with our builder. We have now been in our home for several months and we are very much “living” in it. Much of the credit goes to Clint and Symmetry!”
CORKER DESIGNS

“I recently used Chase Corker with Corker Designs for my personal residence. Chase Corker worked closely with me and my wife throughout the entire project. He was always available and quick to respond to any questions in the field. Chase is skilled, knowledgable, trustworthy and efficient. I do not hesitate to recommend Corker Designs to my friends, family and Colleagues. My company will definitely use them again on future projects. Cheers!”

Purva Design Studio
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Dorchester
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 31, 2020
“Purva Design Studio was amazing in the design and build-out of our office and showroom. It was a challenging project that required a full remodel and gut of the entire space. Her knowledge of both architecture and construction led us to work with her over some of the other design firms we had interviewed. We get many compliments from our customers, and have now referred her to many other companies and friends we know who had complex new builds and remodels. Additionally, after our office, the firm also did a large remodel for our house. Once again this was pretty complex, and their ability communicate with all the contractors and sub-contractors on our site helped save us a lot of money and time. Highly recommend!”
Laura Juarez Baggett Studio, PLLC
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Dorchester
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 8, 2018
“I have had the pleasure of knowing Laura since 1998. She is an extremely talented award winning architect. Her careful and meticulous attention to detail is reflective of the passion she has for the profession. As her former colleague, I would highly recommend her to anyone whose home is or is to be a showplace.”

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

How do I find the best Dorchester 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 Dorchester 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 Dorchester, TX 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 Dorchester 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?
