Frequently Asked Questions
As your local, reliable Northern Colorado architects, we strive to see the big picture when it comes to your project. We help you to explore those things which appeal to you aesthetically and what you require functionally. We coordinate teams of design, engineering and construction management professionals; we sort through the maze of building codes and zoning requirements and provide leadership so that your project is built the way it was intended.
It is best to hire an architect as soon as you are ready to begin designing your construction project. The earlier the better! Your first meeting with us is free of charge. During this meeting we discuss your requirements, your ideas, concepts and our experience in relation to them. We can also provide rough estimates for the cost of your project depending on the scope of your project, materials, costs related to construction and other professional’s involvement i.e. engineers.
As your architect we will depend on you to communicate your design preferences, functional requirements and budget. If your expertise isn’t necessarily in a more creative field, we’ve still got you covered and will work with you every step of the way to ask questions and understand which architectural styles will best meet your vision. Your timely response to questions and design submissions will help keep the project on track. It is also important for you, as the client, to raise any concerns you may have as the project proceeds, so they can be addressed in the earliest stages. Working in partnership with us will aid in achieving a successful project outcome.
This depends on the size of the project and how long it takes for you, as the client, to make decisions. It also could depend on the timeliness of the responses from engineers and other professionals. We will be able to give a better estimated timeframe when leading up to your first initial design review once we have the details.
