    Studio 6 Architects
    Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Laguna Beach
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 10, 2013
    “I highly recommend Studio 6 Architects both from a professional and a personal point of view. As an interior designer, I have worked with Studio 6 on many projects from concept to completion. Rob & Brian's designs are well thought out, beautiful and meets the client's needs. They are professional and easy to work with. Unlike other architects who may create plans and that is the end of it, Rob & Brian are involved throughout the entire project. They are also very good at create a design to meet the client's budgetary restraints. As a homeowner, my husband and I hired Studio 6 to design our dream home for us. What impressed me most was how much they really listened to us. They incorporated everything from the big things like room locations to the little things like the overall "feel" we were trying to achieve. Also, Rob & Brian did a phenomenal job of adding interest to every area of the home, both inside and out. Interesting repeating arches in the hallways, a large niche under the covered loggia, an exterior that looks wonderful from all four sides. In my opinion, this is what mades a good architecture firm. I whole-heartedly recommend Studio 6 Architects.”
    GCC Designs
    Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Laguna Beach
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 17, 2017
    “As a real estate broker, property manager and investment property owner for over 15 years I have worked with may designers, contractors and sub contractors (Good and bad) Mark at GCC Designs is at the top of my list of professionals I can trust to do the job right the first time. He shows up on time, articulates the scope of the job in a way that is easily understood and executes on time. The value he provides is right in line with the cost of the job. He is currently working on a major job in my personal home that is moving along just as planned.”

    AAHA Studio
    Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Laguna Beach
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMay 26, 2015
    “My husband and I own a four unit apartment building in the Beverlywood area of Los Angeles that was constructed in the '40's. It was originally one of the "Co-op Style" buildings similar to the condos of today. Due to extenuating circumstances, it has been extremely difficult to update the building. HHDesign, with confidence and poise came to our rescue. Their professionalism and architectural expertise have turned a nightmare into a sweet dream. We were so impressed with their portfolio which is largely high-end and contemporary. This could have possibly been a stumbling block, however; you can imagine how pleased we were when, at their suggestion, they maintained the integrity of the building and style of the neighborhood. Even better yet, while honoring our budgetary constraints, they managed to give the building and grounds an incredibly needed facelift and artfully pulled the exterior facade into the 21st Century. We have had numerous complements from neighbors and friends and now have pride of ownership thanks to the tireless efforts and extraordinary service afforded by HHDesign. It is with the utmost sincerity that we recommend this highly efficient and talented team to the consumers of Houzz.”

You will not find a better architect or architecture firm that will listen to your ideas and thoughts and illustrate it the way you didn't know you wanted it. They listen, suggest and create your masterpiece just for you. I am asked constantly about who I would recommend to draw up plans and the answer is ALWAYS Mark Teale! You won't go wrong here.”

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

    How do I find the best Laguna Beach 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 Laguna Beach 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 Laguna Beach, CA 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 Laguna Beach 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?
