Looking to build a new home in the next year or two (fingers crossed that lumber costs come down) and wanted to know if anyone could recommend an architect around here. Not totally against a draftsman either but would prefer an architect. Already met with Hollingsworth but want to meet/interview a few more before we move forward.
House will be 2500-3000 sqft and not super high end or anything. Lots are already owned.

We just got our plans finished by Hollingsworth. They were slammed throughout the process and a bit slow, but they worked with us and we are very happy with the final product. Builder is very happy with the plans too.

Blue moon, thanks. We liked Hollingsworth but just wanted to see what else is out there. Were you happy with your contractor too?

We aren’t starting for another month, but we are lucky in that our contractor has built numerous houses for our family. He’s great. He looked through our prints, discussed with subs, and was really happy with them.

Overall I was very happy with Hollingsworth but if you use them (or probably anyone else), just know that a lot is backed up now so if they tell you a render is going to be done in 4 weeks, it’ll probably be 6. I didn’t bother them too much about it because they were super patient with us.
