Norwood Architects
House Plan Companies
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 15, 2012
“We are so happy with our experience! The architect and also the GC, Woody was so immersed, dedicated to our project- he guided us when decisions had to be made with excellent communications skills and also humor! It was exciting to see it all happen- and it was on time! We were living in the basement during the renovation and one night, it was storming, pouring rain- and this was before we had the roof completed, and he shows up in the middle of the night just to check on things to make sure water wasn't coming in! He was also very good at keeping us in-check with our budget. We are very happy with our new home!!”
RAW Design & Consulting /RAW Architecture + Design
House Plan Companies
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 30, 2013
“My husband and I hired Renee at RAW Design & Consulting for purposes of planning and designing a partial renovation of our 1950's home in Miami, Florida. We were relocating our kitchen and adding a bathroom to our 3/2, along with some other superficial changes. Although we ultimately chose to scale back the project significantly, we worked with Renee through the completion of the design stage and were just about ready to send the final plans to the city for their review and approval. The final plans were fantastic and included structural, mechanical, electrical and other design elements. As first time homeowners (and renovators), we really appreciated Renee's insight and constructive feedback with respect to what would and would not work for our home. Renee's attention to detail and responsiveness to our emails and other inquiries made it an absolute pleasure to work with her. She was very professional and courteous throughout the project, and made the process very simple and stress-free. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her services to anyone interested in a fresh take on their home's potential.”

John Lum Architecture, Inc. AIA
House Plan Companies
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 3, 2011
“We used John Lum Architecture for the complete remodel of ~1000 sq ft in San Francisco. John and team were fantastic to work with. Very creative yet good at listening to our thoughts and integrating our ideas. They understand how to both design a gorgeous contemporary space while still keeping it comfortable and livable. We depended on them with a lot of design detail recommendations such as fixtures, paint, tiles and they always had great suggestions that made the process much simpler and easy to manage. They are very professional, extremely responsive and timely. There were no surprises during the entire process including on deadlines and budgets. I would strongly recommend them.”
Jeannette Architects
House Plan Companies
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 20, 2012
“My wife and I hired Jeannette Architects to assist us with a major remodel (interior/exterior) of our 3,500 sq. ft. ranch style home in Newport Beach. The task: incorporate warm contemporary design into our 1970's "woody cabin." As a real estate developer and because it's our third major house remodel there were many design elements we knew we wanted but many more that we needed help with. As capable as Jeff (Jeannette) is with his design sense, we believe that it's his ability to listen to his clients, understand client goals, how we will live in the space and how that fits into our budget is what sets Jeff apart from other architects. The Jeannette team met aggressive time constraints, produced a thorough set of construction documents, were always quick to provide clarification and answers to our questions and were great resources for product and material options and information. True professionals that we would use again and confidently refer to others. Our project is nearing completion and I can't wait to share photos.”

“We LOVE working with Heidi at H2D A+D. Down to earth, super creative, and exceptionally organized. Having completed projects of all types and sizes we know first hand how important it is to have an effective leader guiding things from the beginning. Each time we work with Heidi the plans are thorough, clear, & easy to interpret… so that by the time we show up to perform our tasks, we are set up to do nothing but succeed. Each job has that enjoyable, team approach and energy. And who wins? Everybody! Thanks Heidi!”

“Michael Menn designed and constructed with the help of his experienced pool of subcontractors the kitchen of my dreams in an older home that I love for both its tradition and its memories. It is a pleasure for me to come down in the morning to a space so much in keeping with the style of our home and offering me at the same time all that is in modo contemporary for the our time. Michael Menn is a gentleman who honors his word amd his contractural agreements. He was always available to me and responded promptly to any and all concerns or questions that I may have had. Michael is in addition someone with whom one could easily make a lasting friendship. I would not hesitiate for a minute to recommend him to others nor to contact him for any future projects that I had in mind.”

Architect or Building Designer FAQs
The duration of a project can vary significantly based on complexity, size, and customization level. On average, creating a custom house plan can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months. Itʼs essential to discuss timelines with your chosen company early in the process to align expectations.
Material selection and design trends significantly impact the sustainability, energy efficiency, and aesthetic appeal of your home. A reputable House Plan Company will guide you through selecting materials that align with your design preferences, budget, and the latest trends, ensuring a balance between style and functionality.
Before meeting with a House Plan Company, homeowners should compile a list of needs and wants for their new home, including the number of rooms, general layout preferences, and any specific features or styles they envision. Itʼs also helpful to establish a budget and collect images or plans that inspire you. Having this information ready will streamline the design process and ensure your visions are clearly communicated.
Open communication and setting clear expectations from the start are crucial to overcoming challenges. Select a House Plan Company that has a proven track record of effectively managing issues such as design changes, budget constraints, and navigating permits and regulations.
Examine their portfolio for diversity in design, innovation, and attention to detail. Look for projects similar in style or size to what you envision. Quality portfolios should also reflect the companyʼs ability to incorporate current design trends while adhering to functional requirements.
While some House Plan Companies offer construction management services or have partnerships with builders, others focus solely on the design phase. Itʼs important to discuss your needs and see if they can assist in the construction phase or recommend reputable builders who have experience with their plans
