Featured Reviews for Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in New York

HUDSON DESIGN Architecture & Construction Mgmt
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in New York
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 16, 2013
“Hudson Design designed and provided construction management for our 3,500 sq. ft. house in Cold Spring, NY. The design process was an iterative one with many revisions resulting in a modern, loft-like weekend getaway that we use almost every week. We have become friends with the principal of Hudson Design.”
ViD ARCHITECTURE + URBANISM
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in New York
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 12, 2024
“We highly recommend Viktoria as a thoughtful, responsible architect. Her sense of design is well balanced with attention to details and the clients needs.”
kimberly peck architect
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in New York
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 17, 2015
“I live in Manhattan and have a country house in the Catskills upstate. The house is a contemporary design built in the mid 1970's. The "bones" were great but the aesthetic was completely wrong. We had Kimberly redesign the interior of the entire house - from moving electrical work, plumbing, windows and walls to choosing finishes and fixtures. She is amazing and I have referred her to many friends and clients. Next.... the apartment.”
Essential Design & Build
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in New York
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 25, 2021
“I thought that finding an honest contractor who follows through with what they promise would be impossible but decided to take the chance with Essential and finally do my first renovation. I was very nervous at first but the contractor Peter was extremely patient and was with me every step of the way. His team which included a talented designer put together a picture perfect kitchen, powder bathroom and master bedroom bathroom. I was blown away by the attention to detail and if you’re looking for a wonderful experience limiting your stress level for such a major project then Peter and his team are a great fit.”
Benjamin Andres Architekt
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in New York
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 21, 2018
“Benjamin’s approach to planning, developing and designing is exquisite. He has incredible eyes and understanding of how to move the design process from concept to reality. He designed a vacation home for me by merging and shaping my numerous needs with conflicting styles into a beautiful home. He is easy to work with and very talented in helping to realize your vision. No matter the size of the project, the level of detail and attention is impeccable!”
Conklin Architecture
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in New York
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 13, 2017
“We have had the pleasure of working with Conklin Architecture many times now and look forward to working with them on many more projects. Conklin Architectures' attention to detail is second to none. They maintain the ability to seemlessly blend modern architecture with classic, timeless designs. With quick, attentive responses to any question that might arise, you would think your project is Conklin Architectures' main priority at any given time. Without hesitation, we would recommend Conklin Architecture to any client.”
Michael Lewis Architects PC
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in New York
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 1, 2014
“Michael Lewis is a consummate designer with years of experience, talent, and organizational ability. We felt supported by Michael and his able firm throughout our project. There was a culture of sensitivity to our needs throughout the firm and skillful handling of issues as they inevitably cropped up. The firm worked with our century old house to bring it into the modern age, by retrofitting an amazing kitchen into limited space and converting an unusable attic space into a dream master bedroom suite with dormers, increasing our living space significantly. We highly recommend this firm!”
Urban Pioneering Architecture
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in New York
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 7, 2014
“From our first meeting, it was clear that Jim would put his all into our job. Throughout a long design and build time frame he never flagged. I'm sure we weren't the easiest clients--- lots of opinions, evolving needs, impatient with delays, heavily involved. His good humor and steady guidance under pressure were greatly appreciated. Renovating any 120 year old building is full of surprises--- our project certainly had its share of twists and turns. JIm anticipated many potential problems and the issues he couldn't have seen coming, he handled admirably. One example— during he course of construction Jim discovered a potentially unsafe structural condition that could have cost a fortune to correct if the most obvious solution were pursued. Instead, he and his engineering team came up with a brilliantly simple alternate approach that corrected the irregularity for a marginal cost. Jim was able to work well with the tradesman, insisting on professionalism without getting into ego games, confident in his knowledge and still open to alternate solutions. He is thoroughly versed in the intricacies of the applicable building codes, skilled in the various crafts, resourceful and professional. What was most gratifying is that he clearly took a personal stake in the success of the project. Late hours, early mornings, many site visits and trips to the D.O.B.; without his dedication, we would not have the home we have today.”
Crisp Architects
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in New York
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 9, 2012
“Working with Jimmy Crisp and his associates was a great and valuable learning experience that could not have turned out better than it did. Jimmy truly met, and in many instances, went beyond our expectations. The project, which was a complete gut renovation, went very smoothly and it did come in on budget with the exception of new items that were included after our original quote. Of course there were differences of opinions and long discussions about changes/desired outcomes and new costs, however, I would say that because of Jimmy's constant presence at the site, complete knowledge of exactly what was suppose to happen at all stages of the project and calm manner we escaped situations that could, at the time, have been less satisfactory. Jimmy, the associates and clerical employees of his firm are all a 10 in my book! My experience with Crisp Architects makes me believe that anyone seeking a great architect, backed by a most professional staff, could not do better than to choose Crisp Architects.”

“We highly recommend Brad to anyone seeking a design professional. We’ve worked with Brad through dozens of residential and commercial projects over the years. He is very talented when it comes to maximizing the functionality of space, creative ideas and navigating the often times complex permitting process. We're very grateful for his dedication in making our vision a reality.”

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

How do I find the best New York 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 New York 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 New York 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 New York 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?
