My clients ask “So Derek, how much will this cost me”
Estimating design fees can be an art itself. I have included past project data below to help you understand your financial obligation. You can call me free of charge to begin the discussion. I also offer a free 1 hour site visit to your land or home to better understand your vision. After we discuss your project and I visit you at your home or site, I will offer you a quote for design work.

For full service architectural design, these projects often require architectural project management as well as contractor and consultant coordination. I work as a team member with you (the homeowner), your builder, your structural engineer and any governing agencies that are involved to secure a building permit as well as any other design consultants you may have on the project. If your project needs full architectural services from me, please reach out.
For architectural drafting and 3D modeling. these projects only require drawings or a 3D model. Often the homeowner or builder has already created a design that has been well though through. I do offer limited architectural insight and advice as needed on these projects, but I am really just the architectural drawing hand behind your vision. If you already have a contractor and a design worked out, then all you need is professional drawings. Lets, talk!
Please reach out to me FREE OF CHARGE to help you decide which service package is right for you and to schedule your FREE site visit.
