Featured Reviews for Architects in Rochester, OH

Bob Schmitt Homes
Architects in Rochester, OH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars30 October 2018
“I am a Technology Integrator who has worked with Bob Schmitt Homes on numerous projects, both large and small. They are, without a doubt, the most professional builder I have worked with in 30+ years of experience. All of their staff are friendly, professional, and committed to client satisfaction. I always hear our common clients say the most complimentary things about the building process, from design to completion and maintenance.”
Schill Architecture LLC
Architects in Rochester, OH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 April 2013
“Schill Architecture designed our home back in 2004. Working with Steve was an absolute pleasure. My wife and I had never built a custom home, and were not sure what to expect. Steve was very open, honest and helped us learn about the process, not just provide us with a service for a fee and we move on (like many architects and builders do). Steve did not build our home, but kept in touch with us during the construction process, and still takes the time to keep in touch, over 8 years later! Steve has evolved his business into not only design architecture, but now design and build. I personally take making recommendations very seriously, as my reputation is on the line when I recommend someone. Steve Schill and Schill Architecture is the only architect or design and build company that I will recommend.”
FiELD9: architecture
Architects in Rochester, OH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 January 2018
“I've had the opportunity to work with Matthew on a number of professional and civic projects and I respect him and his work immensely. His understanding of the people he serves is reflected in the spaces that he consciously creates. His designs are beautiful, but also functional and sustainable. His encouragement to learn design thinking through a Human Centered Design course even had a significant impact on my work and business. I highly recommend Matthew and his firm FiELD9.”
Architectural Design Studios
Architects in Rochester, OH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 February 2014
“Our vision is a reality as a result of Tony's design. Architects have a tough job of balancing their knowledge with the customer's often changing views of what they want. The good ones guide us to a better end result than even we imagined. We are immensely pleased with the result of our collaboration with Tony and one of his suggested builders. His attention to detail improved the bid process and the building process. We truly enjoy this home everyday and would not hesitate to recommend him.”
Brian Stanley AIA
Architects in Rochester, OH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 December 2021
“Excellent service! Brian was always professional and prompt with any questions we had. He was patient with us, as we made a few changes from the original design. Brian was thorough in explaining the entire process with us, including timelines.”
LESLIE HOHENFELD INTERIOR DESIGN SERVICES
Architects in Rochester, OH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 April 2013
“Leslie was introduced to us through out cabinetmaker. She coordinated our entire kitchen renovation in 2011 and is helping us to do a makeover on our family room now, including a partial renovation of two bathrooms. Leslie has a way of helping a homeowner make good design decisions. She suggests, but never insists. She deftly steers the homeowner away from some items and provides rationale for going in a different direction, all with a sense of humor. One of the most important things Leslie brings to the table is her stable of tradespeople. Those who want to work with Leslie, and get repeat business, know that their work has to be right the first time. Leslie's contractors respect the home and clean up after themselves. When we discovered a plumbing problem during the kitchen renovation (which was not related to the renovation, but a coincidence) on a Sunday afternoon, Leslie had the plumber out on Monday morning! Leslie is always thinking about the project at hand and how she can keep things moving along. She has great ideas and suggestions, and can redirect a project if some items come in over budget. For all these reasons, we're having Leslie back this year and will likely involve her for any future renovations.”
the weidner group
Architects in Rochester, OH
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars29 July 2013
“We used this contractor for a large patio project that involved multiple levels of pavers, sitting wall with caps, cedar pergola and arbor, firepit, and hard wired and low voltage lighting. We were very pleased with the end product as well as the whole construction process. There were some difficulties with the pavers but that was a result of us ordering a paver they weren't familiar with and then items being on back order from the supplier. They were very accommodating and worked with us to select an alternative that we loved. We are very happy with this contractor. Our patio is beautiful. Every project has its own set of issues and "punch list" items. The key is finding a contractor that will be attentive in fixing them. The Weidner Group is one of those Contractors.”

A well-chosen architect can design a home that is specifically tailored to your family's lifestyle. Highly competent and professionally-trained designers, many architects in Rochester, OH also use sustainable design principles to maximise the site and materials used, so your home uses less energy and saves you money in the long term.

If your renovation is more than a simple benchtop replacement or roof re-tiling job, then it may be time to find an architect in Rochester, OH who can manage your project from start to finish. Depending on the architecture firm you hire, the scope can span from planning sustainable design into your renovations, to selecting furniture and even interior finishes.

How do I find the right architect for my home design project?


An architect is often the first person you hire for your project. Before taking steps to find an architect in Rochester, OH, ask yourself what you want to achieve from your renovation or home construction. Do you want to improve the liveability and sustainability of your home, or simply expand? What style of architecture do you prefer? Once you have established your motivation, research architects that have completed similar house designs in your Rochester locale and within a comparable budget to yours.

Undergoing renovations, house extensions or building a new home entirely can be stressful. For this reason, it’s important that you and your chosen architect get along and share the same values, especially if you require an architect to help you refine your brief. To establish this rapport, you may need to meet several times with the architects on your shortlist before making a final decision on who you hire. The relationship you have with your architect is very personal, and will involve discussions of your habits, hobbies and tastes, so you want to ensure you have picked someone you feel comfortable in sharing this information with.

Most importantly, you need to trust that your architect will manage your home improvement or house design within budget, while working with site constraints, and coordinating the relationships of all parties involved in the project.

Ideally, your Rochester, OH architect will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. Your architect may be needed to select and hire Ohio subcontractors (e.g. builders, engineers and landscape architects) just as they may need to negotiate contracts with stakeholders. A good client-architect relationship will ensure they are your biggest advocate along the way during construction.

Finally, remember that the most well-known or established architect may not provide the right architectural services for your needs. It all comes down to the individual project.
