Gnome Architects LLC

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 April 2021
“Excellent architecture firm. I've used Gabe Deck and Derek Spencer on several projects and every time they have done excellent work and have been extremely reliable. Highly recommend.”
Bishop and Smith Architects
Architects in Bear, DE
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 September 2014
“We are very pleased with the result of more than a year's work, starting with pen and paper and a discussion on what we needed in a home, reviewing and editing floor plans, getting to plot plans, elevation views, and ultimately a final set of plans. This was no easy task, considering we were building a new home post-Sandy, at the Jersey Shore, and with flood maps changing during the process, being in dual zoning districts, and with required building heights uncertain. But, finally, we are done (mostly!) Scott, Jack and Bill were all great to deal with, they listened to our needs and wants, and helped us make decisions on the trade-offs you always need to consider when space is limited on the lot and you have a long list of needs and wants. The style of the house is a cape cod, the architectural detail is outstanding and it fits well into the existing neighborhood which is situated one block from the start of the historic district here in Ocean City. Ultimately, we love the house and get compliments on it every single day from strangers walking past and from family and friends who are visiting. So many people have asked us if they can have a tour. Thanks Scott, Jack and Bill for everything.”
Gary Rosard Architect
Architects in Bear, DE
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 April 2013
“Gary helped us renovate the exterior of our home last year and we were thrilled with the results. Our house needed a serious makeover and Gary was able to completely transform and modernize our home while staying within our agreed upon budget. Not only does Gary have an amazing design sensibility, but he is also a pleasure to work with. He delivered plans on time, worked well with contractors and followed through. I highly recommend him!”

k YODER design, LLC
Architects in Bear, DE
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 February 2013
“It was a pleasure to work with Kevin. His design for our master bath was creative and unique, but more importantly, he incorporated our style into his recommendations. Kevin is a perfectionist and this is reflected in everything he does. We highly recommend him.”
Jibe Design
Architects in Bear, DE
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 September 2017
“The centerpiece of our home renovation was a floating, black walnut spiral staircase envisioned by Jibe Design principal Juliet Whelan. It is breathtaking, and brings architectural distinctiveness as well as light into our row home. The project also gave us several more feet of precious space thanks to the removal of a chimney we did not realize was behind a wall. Whelan came into our space and saw all kinds of fresh possibilities, but also succeeded at learning and honoring our aesthetic. It was a pleasure to work with Jibe Design. From start to finish, we appreciated the design sophistication, professionalism and good communication.”
the be architecture studio
Architects in Bear, DE
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars11 August 2015
“We live in an old farm house that was added on to many years ago. That addition was poorly built, poorly planned, falling apart, and needed to be torn down in favor of a new addition. Andy really listened when we described what we were trying to achieve with the new addition. His design matched the old farm house perfectly and we couldn't be happier with the result. Our house now looks like a classic old farm house but has modern amenities that make it a great livable space for our family.”
Hays Architecture, LLC
Architects in Bear, DE
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars28 July 2021
“We hired Hays Architecture to design an addition to our raised ranch home. Ellie was nothing but wonderful - on budget, professional, and completely knowledgeable about addition work to a not-easy style of house. She explained what we could and could not do, gave us options, and worked with our contractor as necessary. We were completely satisfied with her work and recommend this firm as one you can trust with your most valuable investment - your home.”
OSK Design Partners, PA
Architects in Bear, DE
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars28 August 2013
“I've had the distinct pleasure of working with OSK Design Partners and Paul Kiss, A.I.A. on many projects over the past 15 years. The residences they design all have a true sense of place, with great attention paid to the smallest details. Whether traditional, contemporary or modern, each is a unique expression of their client's needs and wishes. The general contractors I've worked with who have built homes by OSK each have commented on how thorough, detailed and well thought out their plans are. Of the many architects I have had experience of doing business with during the past three decades, OSK brings a level of creativity, integrity and excellence that sets them apart.”

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 Bear 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 Bear 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%. For example, if a project has a construction cost of £500,000 and the architect’s fee is 10%, the fee would be £50,000. It’s advisable to discuss fees and payment structures with architects in Bear during initial consultations.
