Featured Reviews for Architects in Cashiers, NC

Mountain House Plans
Architects in Cashiers, NC
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 May 2017
“It was great working with Richard - he has unbounded enthusiasm for creating environmentally healthy homes which use as little on-grid energy as possible. His creative ideas regarding passive solar heating meshed right in with my less-educated desires. The end result is an Energy Star certified home with passive solar heating and active solar water heating .... and it looks good too!!!!”
ARCON Architects & Builders, LLC
Architects in Cashiers, NC
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 October 2012
“Arcon Architects & Builders designed and built our wonderful house on Lake Keowee in Seneca South Carolina. Their professional expertise coupled with years of practical experience ensured the house not only met our family's needs but was built on time and within budget. By carefully assessing the building site Arcon ensured the house afforded great lake views from every room while minimizing the need to remove mature hardwood trees that I so love. They coupled the site plan with wonderful architectural features like 3 foot overhangs to minimize afternoon sun and allow the windows to stay open even during the rain ! In addition the cantilevered deck affords a sense of "floating over the lake" while maximizing the views from the lower level rooms. Oh .. and did I mention the screen porch and stone fireplace, the barrel vaulted front entry, the beams and massive stone fireplace in the great room .. and and and ! They just did a great job for us !”
Grant & Grant Design Group
Architects in Cashiers, NC
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 July 2017
“I have built seven houses for various reasons over the years and am happy to report that my experience with Grant and Grant was the most enjoyable I have had. We converted a garage into a guest house and I now spend 99% of my time in the guest house! Those guys are first class in every department. They listen, they communicate, and they meet deadlines. I would use them again in a minute. CF”
HOME ARCHITECTS ®
Architects in Cashiers, NC
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars1 July 2013
“Happy to provide my highest recommendation for Rand and Home Architects. It can be difficult for one architect to recommend another as we all tend to think we, ourselves, are the best. In this case, my hat is off to Rand on a number of counts. First of all, he is a consummate professional dedicated to his clients and his profession who diligently works toward staying on top of best practices for detailing for quality construction, energy conservation and attention to balancing short term and long term costs. Secondly, kudos to Rand for the quality of his design work. He does not have a "style" that he forces on clients, but is rather able to design to meet the desires and tastes of his clients. Third, his dedication to the profession of architecture is evident in his work to help educate both clients and architects with insights gained through years of experience. OK, that's the truth about Rand. Just don't tell him that any other architect actually said these things as it may induce shock. :) If you are in his area and considering an architect - call him. You'll be glad you did. John A. Hrivnak, AIA, MBA, NCARB, LEED AP”

“Ryan did an excellent job designing the new front to our old (outdated and ugly) lake home. We love the results. He teamed well with the contractor and also with us. I highly recommend his work. We consistently get compliments on how different and wonderful our house looks now. It was worth the investment to use his services.”

Harris Architects, PLLC
Architects in Cashiers, NC
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 June 2015
“We had the opportunity to work with Harris Architects on their "Casa Melanzana" residential project in Lake Glenville, NC. With much of our work geared towards modern and contemporary homes, it was a delight to build products designed for a more traditional aesthetic. Harris Architects proved to be very focused on both the needs and the vision of their client, and provided creative solutions specific to the project. We welcome the chance to work with them again in the future, and highly recommend their services.”

Architect or Architectural Designer FAQs
An architect is a professional who designs and creates building plans, ensuring the building is functional, safe, and aesthetically pleasing. They collaborate with clients to understand their needs and create designs that meet their requirements. Architects also consider building codes, regulations, and sustainability principles in their designs. They may oversee the construction process to ensure it aligns with the design intent.
If you are looking at a house extension or building a new home from scratch, chances are you are going to need the help of a residential architect. They have extensive knowledge of architectural design, construction methods and building materials, not to mention a strong appreciation of ergonomics – warmth, light and flow within a property. Architects will also be far more capable of seeing the bigger picture – carefully balancing aesthetic appeal with structural safety. With their local knowledge, your 28717 architect will also often help to obtain planning permission and building regulations approval.

    After choosing a residential architect, you will usually start with a consultation to discuss the project. Preferably at your property or building site where the work will be done. Give as clear a picture as possible of the kind of home you are trying to create to your architects. Chat through your goals, projected budget, scope of work, schedule and feedback, together with any very specific requirements you might have. They will explain their process to you alongside any other on-site visits up to and including the build stage, depending on whether they will be involved at that stage. From there they will produce the designs and plans required for your project.
    The cost of hiring an architect in 28717 can vary depending on the scope and complexity of the project, experience, reputation, and location. Architectural fees are typically structured as a percentage of the project’s total construction cost, ranging from 8% to 15%.
