Alright, so you have decided you want to hire an architect, or at least you have considered the possibility enough to do a little research. Now you want to know how you are supposed to decide on an architect, when you don't know anything about architecture, which is why you need to hire an architect! Whew...
First things first, how do you find an architect to work with? I have a few recommendations, first, ask all of your friends and acquaintances if they have worked with an architect, know an architect, or can recommend one. Word of mouth is the single best way to find someone you are willing to trust with a project as personal as designing your home, building, or space. If your friends are unable to provide you a name or two go on to your local chapter of the American Institute of Architects. Or simply Google: Architect, your location, and whatever you want to build.
How will you know if they can meet your needs and give you everything you want? Maybe you have done some research and you have found, as is often the case, that several architects in your location build beautiful homes or buildings and have great pictures on their website. Maybe some are your style, maybe others are not, but now you are confused because if all architects design beautiful spaces how do you know which one is right for you?
Maybe selecting an architect should be like selecting a puppy. Before you get a puppy you do research, you find out what type you want based on how they look, what exercise requirements they have, what certain personality traits are common with that breed, what size they are or will grow to be, how far away are the located to go pick one out, and then when you finally get there you pick the one the grabs your attention. Maybe it's the cutest one, maybe it's the quiet one that plays by itself, or maybe it's the spunky one that shows off and is very friendly.
Similar to selecting a puppy, selecting an architect that will meet your specific needs is based on a lot of different factors. That doesn't mean that every architect is for you, or that you can work with every architect. So here are the key points you need to know and consider when selecting an architect to work with.
