“David Chamberlin designed my retirement home with my active involvement. He was sensitive to my aesthetic, needs and desire to have an environmentally sound home. The building site was a narrow lot on a steep slope in a small development with regulations and restrictions limiting what could be built. David created a lovely, functional and inventive plan incorporating both passive and active solar features. David is receptive and easy to work with as well as being thoroughly competent in both design and building knowledge. He eagerly took on educating himself on new residential solar technology, and, I understand, has used this in later projects. Since I was then living out of state, he also oversaw the progress of the building, dealing with the contractor that I had chosen. Unfortunately, I had made a poor choice of contractors which created many, many problems and building was halted halfway through. David represented my interests throughout with integrity and perseverance, spending many hours reviewing the contractor's expense claims to the work completed. After a pause of several months, a new contractor was hired to complete the project. The construction of my home came in way over my budget due to the problems with the original contractor, poor workmanship by his subcontractors, subsequent lawyer fees, expenses due to delays and then hiring a new contractor who needed to redo some of the construction. In the end, I now have a wonderful and unique home. Thank you David.”

“We consulted David when we decided to update the bathroom in our 1930's home. The layout was such that when sitting in the living room , if the bathroom door was left open, the view was directly of the toilet...obviously not a good idea. David had the idea of moving the toilet into an adjacent under used closet to make a private space. He suggested removing a rarely used bath tub set in an alcove and creating a shower in another alcove that had been a vanity table. We followed his ideas and could not be happier with the result. He had wonderful ideas on new fixtures that kept the same look as the old. We purchased new tile that was very similar to the decaying tile that we found under the rotting linoleum. We were able to leave all the old features we loved- many arches in a small room- and make the space much more usable. His ability to look at a challenge with fresh eyes is remarkable.”
Oregon Cottage Company
Architects, Architecture Firms, & Building Designers in Tidewater
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 29, 2017
“I live full-time in the tiny house on wheels Todd custom-designed for me for several years ago and absolutely love it! Todd worked closely with me in the design and building process and advised me on details I desired. He designs for efficiency and sources eco-friendly, non-toxic materials. With 11 windows, my home is airy, well lit and feels more spacious than its 22-foot length. Space is well designed and efficient. People are surprised that it is so comfortable and that my 2 active cats and dog are well accommodated. After seeing many other tiny houses by other builders, I highly recommend Todd Miller/Oregon Cottage Company over any others. The difference in quality and aesthetics really matter!”

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

How do I find the best Tidewater 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 Tidewater 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 Tidewater, OR 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 Tidewater 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?
