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

Masa Studio Architects
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Houston
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 7, 2013
“Always a pleasure to work with this firm. Very professional and courteous. Worked on large glazed lavastone countertops for a kitchen / residential Jean Pauwels at Pyrolave USA”
Ideo Architects
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Houston
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 20, 2016
“Origin architects is an amazing architecture firm, focusing on detail and creativity that makes every project unique! As an interior designer I loved the amount of detail that went into this home. Not only the interiors but exteriors as well. Also the fact that they take "the views" heavily in consideration masked all the difference. The luxury home has beautiful golf course views from nearly every room / window in the home. The outcome was georgeous and the homeowners couldn't have been happier! I believe that Javier and his team truly captured their dream home!”

“We have worked with Robert and his team for decades. The homes they have designed for us through the years are truly one-of-a-kind. Our team at Sims Luxury Builders greatly appreciates their dedication and the quality of their work.”

Consulting with an architect in Houston 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.
  • 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 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.)

  • 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.)

  • What will I need to provide?
  • Are there any complications you foresee with this project?
