Featured Reviews for New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

DHD Architecture and Interior Design

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

April 2, 2013

“I cannot recommend DHD highly enough! We had the most amazing experience working with them. We had a large gut renovation (to the studs) of a 9000 square foot home on the water, including interior and exterior work. Steffani Aarons was our interior designer and she nailed it! She understood everything we needed for our lifestyle and incorporated these elements into the design in the most stunning way. They managed the project seamlessly, making sure everything was completed on time and on budget! We love this house so much! And we loved working with DHD! We will use them for any other architecture/design project will have in the future!”

Tonos Design Studio

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

November 28, 2016

“Sam provided top-notch service from start to finish of my apartment remodeling job - mostly a gut reno of the kitchen, but work that in the end affected each room of the apartment. From big-picture conception to small details, Sam offered the perfect balance of providing insight and ideas, and realism as to what was workable, versus listening to my own vision and helping make it a reality. You'll love his work, and enjoy working with him!”

Lilian H. Weinreich, Architects

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

November 6, 2013

“We (Mid-Century Modern Finds) have been working with Lilian Weinreich's office for the past three years finding artwork and furniture for her and for her clients. The collaborative process has been very rewarding, and the end result is a great product. Lilian has a great eye - attention to detail, quality finishes, and an artistic touch. She is courteous, professional, and always a pleasure to work with.”

Diversified Design Associates Architects, P.C.

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

January 29, 2014

“I consider Diversified a design team, as well as a top sub-contractor, who not only identify the right construction solutions but understand a project from an architectural, engineering, and interior design perspective. I have employed Diversified to provide me with all three services, architectural plans, engineering work (including obtaining obtaining permits) and subcontracting work. Diversified does a good job in holding the subcontractors accountable that work is done well and on time. They ensure subs work in concert with one another so there are relatively few lapses in work as compared to other firms. I have not been stuck with a punch list that takes months to address. They address issues and problems right away. My level of satisfaction is so high, I have hired Diversified to work on two different houses. The first time I have ever hired a contractor more than once. The work on my first home was so well done and had such a positive impact on our curb appeal, the house was sold in 3 days! I employed them the second time when I needed a firm who could move quickly in making my fixer upper move in ready (they even helped me out in the aftermath or Super storm Sandy). While the work may be a tad more expensive, it was worth the extra investment to make sure the end product was well done. I absolutely recommend Diversified.”

Atelier036 Studio of Architecture Pllc

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

January 1, 2013

“Niv is a patient, insightful and incredibly talented designer. He listens to what his clients needs are, and provides appropriate solutions that fit within their budget. Niv works equally well with contractors and other members of the design team. He is relentless in his pursuit of the precise and proper execution of his vision in the best way possible for his client's benefit. I have happily recommended Niv to my clients in the past and will gladly do so in the future.”

Kate Johns Designs

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

November 1, 2013

“Kate Johns is a brilliant architect and a lovely person. My husband and I have engaged Kate to renovate two historic homes for us over the course of about eight years and we are working with her now on an addition and outbuildings. She is extremely knowledgeable about the preservation of historic buildings, but also understands the way a modern family lives; her designs seamlessly bring together the past and the present. Kate also has a rare talent for listening to the clients' needs and then translating them into original and thoughtful design solutions. She is thorough, professional and responsive, and also a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend her.”

Lichten Architects

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

September 13, 2014

“In November 2013 we bought a 2 bed, 2 1/2 bath pied a terre on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. Although in a modern glass tower, the apartment was done up with fusty wallpaper, heavy draperies and antiques. Lichten Craig's remit was to create a sleek, clean and modern look for the whole apartment. They stripped the wallpaper and painted, and put up gorgeous bronze wallpaper in the powder room. Joan Craig suggested white leather and lacquer furniture, modern floor lamps, and shades provided by a Chicago vendor whom she flew in to NY. This saved us a good deal of money by not using a NYC shop. Ditto for the 4 Saarinen dining chairs they had another Chicago vendor knock off to go with our Knoll table. Huzzah Huzzah. I love the substantial two tier glass and chrome coffee table, and the piece de resistance of the apartment: a large living room rug that is precisely what I wanted: a striated rug of teals and turquoises that looks like a David Hockney pool. It was custom and came in on time and on budget, as did everything else. Also, I wanted bookshelves and could not find a bookcase I liked. Joan Craig recommended building them, something I was reluctant to do but, as this is the second apartment LC has done for us, I have a high confidence level in them and agreed. They are perfect for the space and we are thrilled. The staff at LC is tops: professional, friendly, and very responsive to calls and emails. Annelise Juettner in the Chicago office has dealt calmly and efficiently with a dragon lady at my building's management company re furniture deliveries. I would have given dragon lady Polonium 210. Because LC has offices in NY and Chicago, their resources are vast and they can source the best vendors for a project at the best price. LC is flexible and can work with many different budgets, adept at integrating inexpensive items and costly ones. And as budgets can sometimes change midstream, I appreciated LC's ability to adapt when our own budget for this pied a terre shrank. Joan Craig's expertise in architecture as well as design is an added plus. We belatedly wish we had used them as the architects of our pre war Chicago Lake Shore Drive coop. I heartily recommend this team.”

LEAP Architecture

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

July 28, 2015

“LEAP designed our modern and green home addition. They handled much of the creative work on the project, as well as detailed renderings, bid consultations, and construction supervision. LEAP's work was very creative and responded directly to our needs. They found ways to get energy efficiency and modern design details into a "buildable" and cost-conscious project. They are humble, hardworking, and consistent. I would choose to work with LEAP Architecture again without hesitation.”

Anjie Cho Architect PLLC

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

August 27, 2013

“We have dealt with Anjie Cho as a General Contractor on a lot of projects. Starting from very small renovation, to whole house projects. we can honestly say that she has been one of the best designers we have ever dealt with. Full attention to details. Not only the bathrooms, and kitchen looked beautiful, they all created a perfect flow throughout the whole house. Pleasure to work with. From Traditional, to contemporary, we have seen a lot of her work. Anjie is an amazing designer that takes the time to understand your style and create beautiful spaces.She has wonderful ideas and is very good at laying out and staying within a budget. We would definitely recommend Anjie to anyone who is looking to re-do their house or commercial space.”

WAKE design development

New York, NY Architects and Building Designers

April 25, 2020

“WAKE was incredibly great to work with. Nathan and his team were SO helpful and responsive. They always listened to me and my concerns and had creative and thoughtful ideas. They were happy to find ideas for me to respond to, or to let me find things and then weigh in on them. Really helped with the whole process. There are SO many decisions and it was great having them available whenever I needed them. They clearly have a tremendous amount of experience and knew the right places to look for things, and important things for me to consider. I will definitely work with them if I have another project.”

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 New York, NY interior architects and designers, keep in mind the following tips to help you choose the perfect one:

How do I find the best New York 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 New York 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 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 architecture firms in New York, NY 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 New York, NY 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.

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?
