Making Design Studio
Architects in Canterbury, NH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars28 March 2024
“Nick and Dani from Making Design Studio deserve all the praise for the incredible transformation they brought to our home. They skillfully altered our bathroom layout to seamlessly incorporate a laundry area, making our daily routine much more convenient. The open concept they created by opening up the kitchen to the dining room has completely elevated our living space allowing for so much natural light! Thank you for making our home so much better!”
LKM Design
Architects in Canterbury, NH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 December 2016
“LKM Design completed a whole house renovation (and major addition) with us. I say "with us" versus "for us" intentionally. She listened to all of our thoughts , comments, concerns during the design process. In turn, this lead to a very smooth construction process. She was a true professional, as was her staff. I would highly recommend her for any project!”
Robert A. Lenahan Architect AIA PLLC
Architects in Canterbury, NH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 November 2014
“It is my pleasure to write a review for Robert Lenahan. We hired Robert to help us with the renovation of our kitchen. I cannot say enough about Roberts thoroughness, his knowledge and understanding of what we were hoping to accomplish, his strong work ethic and above all, his ability to listen to his clients and make them feel comfortable and secure in decisions that were being made. Roberts gregarious personality is a bonus when it comes to working with other professionals. I would recommend anyone looking for a wonderful outcome to their project to hire Robert Lenahan. We are thrilled with our new kitchen and we are grateful to Robert for his professional expertise!”
Market Square Architects PLLC
Architects in Canterbury, NH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 December 2022
“Rob Harbeson and Adam Wagner at Market Square Architects PLLC ("MSA") simply did an amazing job in the overall process of designing our home. The concept meetings and design suggestions for our 6,600SF residence located in Rye Beach NH with MSA were flawless and the recommendations as made by Rob and his team were then carried out and constructed by the custom builder Dick Southwick (Southwick Construction, Inc.) who did an amazing job at constructing a one-of-a-kind luxurious home in Rye. In meeting with Rob and his team, from the early discussions and hand sketches of conceptual ideas through a myriad of physical design idea changes during the construction process, every phase and facet of our project was done in exemplary fashion! All of the design architects at MSA were very accommodating and welcoming of ideas and changes and made the entire process seamless and stressless. We especially appreciated the 3-D walkthroughs of the residence as designed and created by MSA so we could get a "feel" and "flow" of the home prior to the physical construction. Every member of the MSA team was appreciated by us and their guidance was simply invaluable. We highly recommend Rob Harbeson and his team at MSA for any project both large and small. Simply said, the entire team was incredibly professional, reliable, cost efficient, and effective at every stage of our main house project and detached carriage house project.”
Christopher P. Williams Architects, PLLC
Architects in Canterbury, NH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars19 July 2013
“In early 2008, we commenced a very challenging project with CPWA. We had a lakeside camp built in the 1970's with an octagonal great room and two attached wings. We wanted parts of the structure preserved, parts destroyed and new parts added. The project was a resounding success structurally, architecturally and designwise. We were most fortunate to work with Liz Steel Venus of CPWA. Liz was extremely versital in her ability to handle all three of those components. We have built six other homes over the years and, overall, our best experience was with Liz and CPWA.”
Concept 21 LLC
Architects in Canterbury, NH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 November 2012
“I worked with Galina (Concept21 ) on a number of projects in Weston, Newton, Andover , Jamaica Plane, Boston MA and a few in New Hampshire. She is extremely talented designer who is capable to find a solution under strict project limitations. Her designs are both efficient and very eye pleasing. Galina's high standards and professional ethics always make it a pleasure to work on the projects with her. Stan Berdichevsky, structural P.E. Berdi Consulting.”
Schatelier Architectural Studio
Architects in Canterbury, NH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 May 2017
“Karina is a joy to work with! My husband and I consulted with Karina to try to figure out how to make our house work for us, my in-laws and our growing family. She had some wonderful ideas about how we could make it work. Ultimately, we decided to buy another house but are looking forward to working with her on my dream kitchen remodel once we get settled. I highly recommend working with her! She is so easy to get along with and really takes the time to understand what your vision is and advise you on what may or may not work. I was also impressed that she didn't want to advise anymore work than was within our budget, saving me the heartbreak of falling in love with something I couldn't ultimately have.”
KOAL, PLLC
Architects in Canterbury, NH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars7 September 2019
“Don Bladja and his team at Koal PLLC have provided remarkably professional and creative work product for our home development efforts. It has been a joy to see our vision unfold with Don as he deftly works with our builder, his structural engineering partner, our cabinet maker, and others on our complex project. He has taken a very rough plan, started by another architectural firm with which we were unsatisfied, mixed in quite a number of unique and complicated requests from us along with forbidding site restrictions and has turned it into a detailed set of drawings that has "wowed" all with whom we have shared. Our builder and his tradesmen have easily implemented our shared vision straight from Don's plans. Many of our complicated requests, including a float room, sauna, elevator, and golf simulator/theater/business conference room combination (to name just a few) started as simple ideas scribbled on a napkin. With Don's expertise and experience, he quickly showed us many alternatives; turning our crazy simple sketches into detailed plans that worked within our uniquely challenging house footprint. It has been an absolute pleasure working with Don and his team. We only wish there were more than 5 stars to rate Koal PLLC, so you would more fully understand how impressed we have been!”
Wentworth Style LLC
Architects in Canterbury, NH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 November 2013
“Patty Cooke at Wentworth Style provided a design consultation to guide a kitchen renovation. Within seconds after walking in the door, she identified the primary problem and had a solution. She recommended relocating access to our basement from the kitchen area into the closet in our front hall. Her suggestion -- and other suggestions about cabinetry, lighting, windows and appliance placement -- helped us work with a cabinetry company to create the perfect kitchen in our 1770 farmhouse. Our one hour consultation with Wentworth Style was invaluable.”

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 Canterbury, NH 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 Canterbury, NH 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 Canterbury, NH, 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 Canterbury 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 Canterbury, NH 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 New Hampshire 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.
