I have worked with Tom on several projects over the past 12 years and he has been a pleasure to work with. He is able to visualize the project and make creative suggestions that make the project more than you had imagined. He is able to conceptualize what you are imagining and render it. He is an artist as well as an architect and he has made our living space aesthetic, comfortable and practical. We use and enjoy every inch of the living space he designed.

How We Charge For Our Services
|
Architects - Commercial
- $85.00 to $125.00 per hour (plus materials) Pricing depends on the type of project. Is it a simple T.I., or is it a more complicated rebuild of the interior, or is it a new commercial building?
|
Architects - Residential
- $95.00 to $125.00 per hour (plus materials) Again, it depends upon the complexity or difficulty of the project
|
Designer - Building
- $85.00 to $120.00 per hour Smaller clients, with simpler tastes and smaller budgets are easier to work for and thus get a lower fee. Clients with Luxury tastes want "Luxury" style service and design that costs more....
|
Interior Decorators - Residential
- $85.00 to $120.00 per hour (plus materials) Interior decorating for me is part of a larger Architectural project and thus the hourly fee is the same
|
Interior Designers - Residential
- $85.00 to $125.00 per hour (plus materials) - 8.00 to 12.00 percent of construction cost I try to work with each client to what fits their budget
