Tommasini Design Group
Architects in Thornton, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars16 September 2013
“I went into this project not really knowing what I wanted. I watched a lot of HGTV and had many conflicting ideas. The Tommasini Design Group was able to listen to my needs and wants and come up with a design that was more than I could have imaginged. I would highly recommend this business.”
California at Home
Architects in Thornton, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 September 2014
“Scott designed and drafted plans for a master bedroom extension for us. The plans were submitted and approved by the city with no revisions. That was awesome & a relief! He listened to our desires, took time to answer our questions & responded to all our concerns. He is very knowledgeable about codes & rules. He was efficient & his fees were reasonable. It was a pleasant experience working with him. We are looking forward to having our new addition completed. We would highly recommend California At Home to anyone. Thank you Scott, for the great service! CB”

SDG Architects
Architects in Thornton, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 August 2015
“Jeff Potts at SDG designed us an incredible, award winning guest house! What I particularly like about Jeff is his open and approachable style. We've worked with many architects over the years and many simply don't want to listen to the client. Jeff listens and then delivers a design beyond your expectations. I would highly recommend working with them.”
Matthew Lechowick Design
Architects in Thornton, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars20 February 2016
“Matt has a creative design eye that blends modern ideas and colors. The project he designed turned a dated condo into a modern living space with clean lines in the kitchen and hotel inspired bathrooms. The project turned out better than expected. Little details such as the custom cabinet design make it hard to believe this was the same space as before.”
By Design

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars27 March 2013
“Elma Gardner is a very talented designer and a fun person to work with. We originally contacted her to help us with the kitchen and bathroom cabinetry design and install for our new home. She offers all the design help needed to complete a project. First, she presented a couple of different layouts for us to consider. The designs were fantastic. Then she scheduled appointments for us to meet with her at several different showrooms including: lighting, plumbing, appliance, and tile showrooms. She listened to what we wanted and helped us make good choices. She was available to meet at the job site during construction. Elma runs a great business; she is very organized, efficient and accommodating. She gets things done on time and she is easy to contact by phone, email or in person. The cabinetry company that she works with makes high quality, beautiful cabinets.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 March 2023
“first of all great work! I called a couple drafters and most of which didn't answer the phone or return my calls till like a week later. I was able to find pacific drafting and i was able to discuss my project and even set up a consultation the same week. I have to say the process was pretty straight forward I paid my deposit and they got to work 4 months later I have my building permit.”
Revitects
Architects in Thornton, CA
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 February 2021
“Our project was a Tubb's fire rebuild. While I had done some remodeling in the past, a complete home rebuild was very overwhelming. My home was completely destroyed, so basically we had a blank slate to work with. Travis was an amazing partner for the process. I kind of feel sorry for him, he had to deal with a complete newbie coming off of a traumatic disaster who wasn't really sure what she wanted nor if she could afford it. Yikes! Honestly, he was SO patient and kind. And really, really explained everything so clearly that when I had to make a decision, I was confident it was the right move. Also, he always had clever solutions to design changes or other engineering and understand innately how altering one element would effect other areas of a project. He takes the smallest changes and shows you the big picture. It felt really good to be in the hands of a true professional. He and his team are quick to respond and are just great to work with, it's that simple.”

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 Thornton 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 Thornton 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 Thornton during initial consultations.
