Are you eating an expensive meal?

If you want a cheeseburger fast, you can go to a drive-through. If you want something finer, you have to go to a restaurant. Architects are like restaurants and how cheap or expensive they are depends on what you order.  A bottle of wine could cost as little as $20 or well over $100. A three course meal would certainly increase the cost.

So when comparing services, we suggest that time is taken to really find out what is being offered. Architects can be very affordable if you don’t choose the most expensive wine and forego the dessert. Then of course, there are secret ingredients and recipes unique to each restaurant which make it hard to compare.

We refer to this as Design, and it is a difficult thing to put a price on. If design is important to you, then go with your gut and choose an architect whom you feel the most confident in their design ability.
