Featured Reviews for Sacramento Architects

Ogle Design

“Consistently refreshing creative architectural designs. William is a unique architect that understands deeply how to create highly functional buildings that are both efficient and gorgeous. Great work and extremely professional. Highly recommend.”
Roger East Architects
Sacramento Architects

“Roger provided a series of archicad drawings for a Beverly Hills office building renovation that effectively recreated the space. I highly recommend Roger to anyone I know, Commercial or Residential, that is looking for an architect.”
Haley Whiteside Design
Sacramento Architects
23 Apr 2017
“I'm a general contractor and had the pleasure of building an 800 sq. ft. home designed by Mo Whiteside and Kate Haley. I say pleasure because rarely do I find architects who put as much attention on detail as Mo and Kate do. The house is beautiful--well proportioned, quality finishes, and it incorporates advanced concepts in building science, which few architects remain current on. When questions arose around detailing (and they always do), Mo and Kate responded quickly so construction could continue without delay. In short, they have a great sense of design, knowledge of construction, and are easy to work with.”

“Some of the many things I appreciate about David Marlatt, my architect on a large and fairly complex home project: He is imaginative, personable, calm, prompt, works extremely well with contractors and vendors, delivers designs / changes promptly. Not only an excellent sense of design architecturally, but also for interiors, fixtures, etc. Thorough practical knowledge base and expertise in dealing with the multitude of City / regulatory issues. Everything - design, budgets, timing, etc - is thought through carefully, and from many angles. Thoroughly receptive to client preferences, but will also be directive when needed. As his client, I'm am never in doubt that my interests are his highest priority. Plans and designs are created, stored and presented electronically - in 3D renderings as well as floor plans. Easy for those of us who are 3D-challenged to follow. In my view, outstanding in all areas. I can confidently recommend David without reservation.”

“Kurt planned and managed improvements to a condo (2004-2005) that I purchased in Oakland upon first moving to the Bay area. Several years later I happily hired him again to manage the renovation of my new husband's Stanford home (2008). This involved significant changes to a five-bedroom home, ranging from changing the footprint to adding clerestory windows and a new roof line to planning all new bathrooms, kitchen, seismic upgrades, etc. Essentially the house was gutted. Kurt was creative, thoughtful, and professional. Thanks to his work and a fine contractor, my husband and I continue to enjoy our home every day. And visitors, even those who have been here repeatedly, comment on the wonderful ambiance.”

“Scott designed and drafted plans for a master bedroom extension for us. The plans were submitted and approved by the city with no revisions. That was awesome & a relief! He listened to our desires, took time to answer our questions & responded to all our concerns. He is very knowledgeable about codes & rules. He was efficient & his fees were reasonable. It was a pleasant experience working with him. We are looking forward to having our new addition completed. We would highly recommend California At Home to anyone. Thank you Scott, for the great service! CB”

“Jason Bradley and the team at Monarch Design exceeded our expectations with our facility design project. I was referred to Jason after having a terrible experience with another architectural design firm, and Jason was able to come in and quickly get our things going in a positive direction. Jason was extremely responsive throughout the entire project and he was able to come up with some creative solutions to challenging areas that we came across throughout the design phase. He also played a key role helping us identify the right engineering and truss company to complete our project, while playing a critical role in coordinating the various pieces of work from all parties. We've work with different design firms on previous projects and I can honestly say that our experience with Monarch Design and with Jason in particular has been the best to date. If/when we have our next design project come up, Jason will be the first call that I make.”

“We hired Barry because we saw the beautiful work he has done for so many of our neighbors. I am an interior designer and have worked with many architects so this was a leap for me. Barry has been a DELIGHT to work with. He is smart, professional, timely in his response, flexible, and works well with the other professionals on our project. I have found that architects are often either technical architects or design architects. Barry is a creative design architect first, but all his technical skills are excellent as well. He has done extensive drawings, worked seamlessly with all engineers and contractors, gotten our permits, and made us feel that we have a true advocate throughout the process. I would highly recommend him. You will be so happy you did!”

“Dan Weaver of 361 Architecture designed an amazing remodel for our mid-century style Mill Valley home. We thoroughly enjoyed working with Dan on the project. He was extremely sensitive to our needs and concerns regarding design, process, timing and budget. He worked seamlessly with our contractor. The entire process went very smoothly and we were absolutely thrilled with the results. – Renée Harcourt”

His professionalism, his commitment to superior quality design and his impeccable attention to detail is a true pleasure to experience through the entire course of a project. I've had the great pleasure of working with Kenneth for many years and on a wide range of aesthetically diverse projects and he will always be my first choice when in need of the services that he and his firm provides.”

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 Sacramento 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 Sacramento, 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 Sacramento 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 Sacramento 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 California 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.

Questions to ask prospective residential architects in Sacramento:


  • What is your fee structure?
  • What does the cost include?
  • Do you have professional liability insurance?
  • What types of renderings (3-D, video, illustrative) will you produce?
  • What is your experience with similar projects?
  • When do you expect to start and be finished with the project?
  • What do your services include?
  • What happens when the cost exceeds the budget?
  • Would you say your work has a defining style? (The architect's personal style could interfere with your vision.)
  • Will you help with hiring a project manager and subcontractors?
  • What do you estimate the cost will be?
  • What will I need to provide?
  • Do you foresee any complications with this project?
