Featured Reviews for Architects in Rochester, MN

Weigel Designs
Architects in Rochester, MN
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars23 April 2020
“I worked with Steve on a renovation design for my cabin. He is everything you want in a professional. He is responsive, takes time to understand and clarify your needs / goals, adaptable, has great ideas and his designs exceeded my expectations. I really appreciated his adaptability as this was a "design by consensus" (extended family) project and he was asked to produce four designs. He met some tight time frames and did great work for us. I would recommend his work to family and friends and plan to work with him on other projects.”
Bergland + Cram Architects
Architects in Rochester, MN
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars27 June 2013
“Scott Borcherding of the Bergland & Cram firm of Mason City did the interior design restoration work on Frank Lloyd Wright's Park Inn Hotel. A citizens' group had the building restored; the firm won a major national historic preservation award last fall. The hotel is beautiful, reminiscent of FLW's Dana Thomas House in Springfield, Illinois--both are Prairie Style. The project involved the restoration of 62 stained glass windows and hotel rooms.”
Necessories™ Kits for Outdoor Living
Architects in Rochester, MN
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars11 February 2016
“Necessories Kits are awesome! If you've ever done a lego set with your child or as a child, it's a little like that. Take a second and get some advice from the manufacturer, or an area pro, as there are some structural things, especially with the ground you lay it on, that you need to know first. There's a lot of weight with some of the finished kits that would be trouble with preparation of a proper base. Otherwise you'll be really happy with the product. Hope this helps!”

“Shawn started with a one dimensional picture from the internet and created our dream home. He was extremely flexible, patient and easy to work with. He also has a very good knowledge about how to build a structurally well built house.”

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 Rochester 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 Rochester 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 Rochester during initial consultations.
