    You should trim this into under 60 seconds. It would fit.

    Architects are a dime a dozen. The expensive ones just charge more and still come across as rookies who delegate the drafting to project managers who often cannot draft a straight line to save their own life. And they have the more fragile egos the more they charge. Get an architect that listens to you and understands your emotional response to design. Most are just getting paid a lot of money to design something they like not that you like.

    I have worked with architects that only care about the inside… we came up with a plan for like a month and not once did he talk about how it would look. Then he gave me elevations and it was all funky without balance and not symmetrical nor asymmetrical balance just awful to the eyes… I then took the same floorplan and played around with window arrangements and roof lines and eventually we came up with a nice looking house that was actually arguably better… big waste of money… I now design them myself on sketchup and then hire draftsman and engineers by the hour to draw it up for final permit set.

    Did you only build a 1 bedroom home on your main living or did i take that wrong? Thanks for the video, we are in the process ourselves

      We did 2 bedrooms on the main level; the master suite and 1 additional ensuite. Good luck with the design....it can get stressful:)

      Having ground floor bedrooms in a family home is so strange to this European. We sleep and bathe on the upper floor(s).

      ​@@eattherich9215 it helps if you are looking after aging relatives or if you plan on living in the home when you are 80, so you arnt stuck in your bedroom because of the stairs.

    I don't understand why people pay thousands of dollars for an architect. My dad has always drawn all of the 700+ homes he has built-the customers shows him what they want and he designed everything. He had one customer that wanted an architect to do it as it was their son in law and told them they had to have architect. They paid $15k for it, and dad had to change so many things. One part the architect didn't want him to change was how far into the ground the home sat-dad told him it was in too deep, he said do it anyways...so he did and not even a year later we got a lot of rain and the basement flooded! Luckily dad had them sign a paper stating that was on them if they chose not to listen. So to me it's a big waste of money, as long as you have an experienced contractor.

      Curious if all the homes had the same look?

      @@mestiza1776 He built both spec and custom houses. So for spec houses he had 10 or so different master plans and changed minor things to make them look different inside and out. But for the custom homes (which is what he mainly did after growing the business) customers showed him what they liked and he made everything from scratch.
