“Mr. Reed is an exceptional architect with great skill in listening, and designing high quality solutions. Chris is easy to collaborate with, creating a trusting environment. I have worked with Chris, and look forward to the next opportunity to work with him again.”
Kate Cleveland Architect
House Plan Companies in Philadelphia
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMay 2, 2017
“Kate transformed our narrow dark kitchen into a sunny, functional beautiful space. We had previously been informed by another architect that the wall between our kitchen and dining room could not come down. After conducting a thorough inspection of the area, Kate concluded that it could be done. She is a professional, accessible and extremely talented architect that we highly recommend without hesitation!”
Dovetail Group LLC
House Plan Companies in Philadelphia
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 11, 2014
“I had the pleasure of working with Dovetail in the summer of 2012. Our choice over and above other contractors we looked into was our confidence in the workmanship and design. Going in with the idea that we wanted our kitchen to be more functional and upscale, my husband and I, knowing that we are style-challenged, wanted someone who would guide us to a design that fit the house, our personal taste, and be up-to-date and interesting without succumbing to trendiness that will look dated in 5 years. Any contractor can do a kitchen renovation that looks like the latest mock-up in Lowes or the local kitchen and bath design place. Not everyone has the style sense that Jonathon Scholl has. He worked in elements we would not have thought of and gently discouraged us from decisions that he knew we would regret later (such as we originally didn’t want to give up a cabinet for waste bucket but are now so glad we did). We worked collaboratively and were able to reuse about 80% of our existing cabinets by painting them and getting new doors made. This kept the cost down and appealed to our sense of responsible reuse. So what do our friends and family comment on the most? The gorgeous, furniture-grade island is a solid and functional centerpiece – all Jon’s design and workmanship; the tile backsplash - in particular, the area behind the cooktop – Jon’s selections (my initial selections would have been horrific in reality!); the spice drawer below my cooktop – the envy of all the cooks in my family; the lighted cabinet windows that showcase some of my favorite hand-painted pottery. After living with this kitchen renovation for over a year now, we are still delighted at how it turned out, thoroughly enjoy entertaining in it, and couldn’t imagine this turning out as well without Dovetail.”
Jibe Design
House Plan Companies in Philadelphia
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 13, 2017
“The centerpiece of our home renovation was a floating, black walnut spiral staircase envisioned by Jibe Design principal Juliet Whelan. It is breathtaking, and brings architectural distinctiveness as well as light into our row home. The project also gave us several more feet of precious space thanks to the removal of a chimney we did not realize was behind a wall. Whelan came into our space and saw all kinds of fresh possibilities, but also succeeded at learning and honoring our aesthetic. It was a pleasure to work with Jibe Design. From start to finish, we appreciated the design sophistication, professionalism and good communication.”
Ivory & McHugh Architects, llc.
House Plan Companies in Philadelphia
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMay 28, 2013
“We have worked with Philip Ivory Architects on numerous projects over the course of the last 15 years. They are a great team to work with, great creative input & talent and their finished projects are always superbly done. Philip Ivory Architects plans are always well thought out with plenty of attention given to even the smallest detail. During any project, there will always be problems that arise – Philip and his team can work around these and provide viable solutions while staying true to the original design, budget and schedule. I would highly recommend Philip Ivory Architects to anyone considering adding to their existing home or building a new home.”
Studio Robert Jamieson
House Plan Companies in Philadelphia
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 20, 2016
“As new house owners, we left a condo living and decided to move into a house. We ultimately decided to purchase an older house and customize it to our tastes and needs. I had used Houzz.com to source some architects to help us out. We found Robert and a few others but it was Robert that accompanied me to house inspection for one and then also accompanied me to view the house we ended up purchasing. From start to finish, he was there. We utilized Houzz.com albums to collect photos and ideas to share so he could get a better sense of our needs and wants. He managed pretty much everything from the contractors to the purchasing of items. He also has a great eye for detail so when he conducted the final walk (we were traveling) and approved it, I didn't worry about him missing anything. As new home owners new to renovation, we did go over budget and in the end, we did have to omit some of the items/detailing that we wanted which was frustrating but Robert provided us alternatives so that we could discuss and decide. In the end, with the budget issue and not having the home 100% to what we wanted, we are still very happy with the project. People who have seen the home before are amazed at the results. We are very happy to have found Robert. As non-creative home owners who have never renovated a home, we would have never come up with some of the concepts he produced. He enabled us to customize this house enough that it meets our aesthetic and functional needs. Robert is very diligent and detailed. I think he may have been too detailed for us (ha) but as a result of me giving in to him, we have a stand out master bathroom. I view our home a great learning experience into the area of renovation. I now have Robert to use as a standard.”

Architect or Building Designer FAQs
The duration of a project can vary significantly based on complexity, size, and customization level. On average, creating a custom house plan can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months. Itʼs essential to discuss timelines with your chosen company early in the process to align expectations.
Material selection and design trends significantly impact the sustainability, energy efficiency, and aesthetic appeal of your home. A reputable House Plan Company will guide you through selecting materials that align with your design preferences, budget, and the latest trends, ensuring a balance between style and functionality.
Before meeting with a House Plan Company, homeowners should compile a list of needs and wants for their new home, including the number of rooms, general layout preferences, and any specific features or styles they envision. Itʼs also helpful to establish a budget and collect images or plans that inspire you. Having this information ready will streamline the design process and ensure your visions are clearly communicated.
Open communication and setting clear expectations from the start are crucial to overcoming challenges. Select a House Plan Company that has a proven track record of effectively managing issues such as design changes, budget constraints, and navigating permits and regulations.
Examine their portfolio for diversity in design, innovation, and attention to detail. Look for projects similar in style or size to what you envision. Quality portfolios should also reflect the companyʼs ability to incorporate current design trends while adhering to functional requirements.
While some House Plan Companies offer construction management services or have partnerships with builders, others focus solely on the design phase. Itʼs important to discuss your needs and see if they can assist in the construction phase or recommend reputable builders who have experience with their plans
