Questions to Ask an Architect


Hiring an architect to design and plan your custom home is a big step, and one that requires careful consideration. There are a number of factors to take into account when choosing an architect, including experience, expertise, and communication style. To ensure that you are making an informed decision, it's important to ask the right questions before hiring an architect.


Some of the key questions to ask when interviewing architects include:

  1. What is your experience and expertise in designing custom homes?

  2. Can you provide references or examples of similar projects you've completed?

  3. What is your design philosophy and how do you approach the design process?

  4. How will you communicate with me during the design and building process?

  5. What is your fee structure and what services are included in that fee?

  6. How do you handle changes and revisions during the design process?

  7. How familiar are you with the local building codes and regulations?

  8. Can you help me find a reliable builder or construction company to work with?
