Marre Design Group
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Oakridge
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 18, 2013
“As someone who has worked closely with many high-end and custom home builders in and around the city of Calgary, I have found working with Marre Design to be a great pleasure. Unfaltering attention to detail, quality and innovative, yet elegant design is no doubt what makes Marre Design one of the very few builders that truly goes the extra mile to give clients an elite home that stands unrivalled time after time. A professional and knowlageble team, as well as an industry leading network of trades is what makes Marre Design's projects run smoothly and leave clients feeling confident and supported throughout their build. The value of a Marre Design home is off the charts next to comparable builders in Calgary. I'm sure we'll be seeing more and more Marre Design signs as the future looks bright for this "diamond in the rough" company.”

The architect will help you throughout the entire process, from initial concept development to managing the construction phase and ensuring everything is built according to plan. They will also collaborate with other professionals, such as builders and contractors in Oakridge, to bring your dream home to life.

They will guide you through the design and construction process, making sure that your home is not only visually appealing but also practical and safe.

Consulting with an architect in Oakridge 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.
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 Oakridge residential architect you hire.

Is the scope of your home design project beyond simply replacing countertops or flooring? It’s the responsibility of an Oakridge 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 Oakridge, AB interior architects and designers, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best Oakridge architect for my home design project?


It is best to hire a home architect who will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. The architect is often the first person you will hire for your project. If necessary, they might also help you select and hire Alberta subcontractors, which can include the builders, engineers and landscaper. Interior architects are also involved in negotiating contracts for all involved participants. It is for these reasons that it is extremely important for you to have a good relationship with the Oakridge 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 architecture firms in Oakridge, AB 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.

What sort of process can I expect from a residential architect?


As far as the process goes, the architecture firm or individual that you choose will start with concept drawings and finish with construction drawings and documents. Some firms even design with 3D renderings and videos, but that should not be assumed. There should be plenty of meetings between you and your building designer until you have agreed upon a design that you are completely happy with. Always keep in mind that the designer will have building codes to follow, and likely pre-existing design limitations when dealing with a remodel, so while they might not be able to execute your exact ideas they always have your safety and aesthetics in mind. One of the most important duties of a residential architect is to serve as managers and supervise most aspects of construction, as well as facilitate communication between all other contractors, so you can expect them to be present throughout the entire building process to ensure everything is executed as planned.

It is very important to hire the right professional for the job. Remember that the most well-known or established designer might not provide the best architectural services for your needs. It all comes down to the individual project. Research and ask people whose work you like for recommendations. It's important to have somewhat of an idea of the style of house architecture that you prefer, as well as the amount you would like to spend. Residential architects in Oakridge, AB are natural problem solvers. They will assess the entire situation and help you to solve your problems too. Don't settle for a single company too early. Call and interview a few. Make sure that you feel like your personalities will mesh well and that you like their professional perspective.
