Featured Reviews for Architects in Clarington, ON

Cornerstone Drafting and Design
Architects in Clarington, ON
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 October 2021
“I am very pleased with the design and building prints developed by Cornerstone . I sketched my thoughts on a paper and Darryl was able to translate it into floor plans for our new home which is a post and beam frame with bailed straw forming the outer walls. Darryl was able to accommodate my unusual requests for a straw bail build and the forty five degree pitch on the roof to support solar panels . If I were to build again I would not hesitate to use his services again.”
Discovery Dream Homes

“Called for a quote and the people there were courteous and helpful. They thoroughly reviewed the drawings and were able to quickly provide a concise estimate to the customer. I have seen some of their timber framing. It is accurate and well constructed. I would highly recommend this company for any timber framing or decorative elements one might need.”

PSobrinho Inc.
Architects in Clarington, ON
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 February 2014
“Peter is very knowledgeable and well experienced international architect with abilities that cover different architectural building types. His experience in working in different countries with different cultures and climates adds to his creativity thinking. He is able to blend his architecture to the surrounding culture, environments yet make them unique and different., e.g. the house in California for the Fonseca family. I would highly recommend Peter to any one who is tired of the sameness of North American residential architecture. Keep up the good work Peter”
Christopher Wallace Architect
Architects in Clarington, ON
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 December 2015
“Chris has been a saviour. I have a 1930's house with a 1980's addition that didn't work at all. He walked around the house and sat down with me to find out what I wanted to use the addition for. He drew up 2 plans for me addressing my concerns and then went back to fine tune them so that I could have exactly what I need. He made wonderful suggestions and pointed out several things that I had not thought of at all. Hiring Chris was a brilliant start to my renovation and I'm confident that as I move ahead, the small cost in this first step will ensure that the large cost of the renovation will be a solid investment in my house.”

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 Clarington, ON 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 Clarington, ON 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 Clarington, ON, 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 Clarington 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 Clarington, ON 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 Ontario 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.
