Christopher @ Architects LLC
Architects in Rochester, OH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 March 2017
“Our company worked with Chris on the large contemporary renovation in Bratenahl. The project offered many challenges from concept, thru design to construction. We have done several projects of this type. Working with Chris was a pleasure that is not always experienced on a complex project like this. His attention to detail, communication and involvement in the project allowed for the entire team to establish a solid relationship with the owner and enabled us to complete the project as expected and with the highest quality.”
William J. Fugo Jr.
Architects in Rochester, OH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars13 December 2014
“Having been in the design-build industry for 25 years and completing multiple high profile projects in Ohio and Florida with William Fugo, I am able to definitively state that he is most outstanding professional I have ever collaborated with. His skill at developing project parameters sets the tone for devising design and functional concepts for each project. This approach is consistent regardless of the size of the project. Large projects including those designated: “Wilderness,” “Valley Overlook” and “Canalside” were complex whole building renovation and additions - yet the attention to detail was maintained throughout the process. His ability to bring highly creative and effective designs to the client is consistently remarkable. Coupled with this architectural skill is the very rare skill to carry the design process to the projects interior. The ability to design interior elements to improve traffic flow, food servicing, senior living amenities, architectural details & finishes, lighting, color selections and furnishing selection & procurement while collaborating with other professionals ensures the finished project routinely exceeds expectations. William Fugo is a methodical project partner. His work is always organized, documented clear & concise and timely. This directly impacts the ability to keep a project on budget and on time. He works exceptionally well with owners, clients and other professionals. This capability also includes the ability to collaborate with technical specialists, contractors and trade professionals - this skill is a source of great relief during the complex construction process.”
Mark Reinhold, Architect
Architects in Rochester, OH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 September 2013
“Mark was the perfect partner in a major renovation of our home. Built in 1936 with wonderful detail, the house was sold as a teardown. Mark was able to take our vision of how our family lives, entertains and incorporate 2 additions which most people are hard pressed to tell old from new. Unlike many architects, Mark was involved from the start (plans) to house construction completion. He worked with our contractor (and the landscaper) throughout and was an amazing resource in tweaking details to achieve best possible outcomes. He was our best advocate and gave us perspective and advice from budgets to decorating! To this day, people stop our family to tell us how amazing our house transformation has been.”
New Leaf Home Design
Architects in Rochester, OH
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars15 October 2012
“Hallie is the architect for a remodel of our home. The project is a large one, requiring many changes, both large and small. She has been easy to work with, always willing to rearrange things as our desires changed. She's offered great suggestions for solutions and resources, and she is affordable. A real pleasure!”
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.”
Professional Home Designs
Architects in Rochester, OH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 November 2014
“We hired Steven to take our rough plans and make them into blueprints for a future home. He was very professional and easy to work with. He made our ideas come alive on paper. When wanting to provide more floor space in the master bedroom for our ailing parents, he worked with us to find practical solutions that made the space functional and inviting. We wanted to have wheel chair accessibility in the home and Steven helped us plan ramps and other accessible areas in our home. He was patient with us when we were deciding on ideas. Steven was someone who we would work with again if given the opportunity and his efficiency is very commendable.”
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.”
Onward Design Collaborative
Architects in Rochester, OH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 April 2023
“After raising our family in a traditional four-bedroom two-story home, my wife and I wanted to downsize into a ranch home in our same neighborhood. The home we purchased was a 1970’s era three-bedroom ranch with “good bones,” but badly in need of updating. We brought Jeremy in from the Onward Design Collaborative even before we closed on the purchase to share our ideas and get his input. In short Jeremy incorporated all the items on our “wish list” in his design, opening up the living area, adding master suite with a walk-in closet and transforming a sunroom from an added-on porch. His detailed drawings were accurate, and he worked well with our general contractor. The results were fantastic and on-budget. We love our completely remodeled ranch “forever” home. Thanks again to Jeremy and Onward Design Collaborative for help making our dreams come true. Gary & MaryBeth Smith”
Architecture Office
Architects in Rochester, OH
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars16 December 2020
“Adam came to us highly recommended and didn’t disappoint. We reviewed Adam’s website which showed an excellent sense of design. During our initial meeting, Adam listened to our ideas and asked questions about what was important to us. Adam provided a comprehensive list of questions in order to understand our vision and needs. During the schematic design process, we were provided with plans that faithfully accommodated these needs and desires. At the end of the process, we received detailed construction documents, which were aided by Adam’s 3D renderings, resulting in accurate building estimates. During construction Adam successfully addressed various issues and problems arising from either unforeseen circumstances or contractor errors. We feel Adam has continually protected our interests, and ensured that the constructor made no changes without our approval and has been an advocate against attempts by the contractor to add on additional fees. Adam is passionate about architecture. He has been involved in every aspect of the project, while being responsive to our design goals - generously offering thoughtful advice throughout. Overall, our experience has been superb. We strongly recommend Adam and A|O.”

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.
