Featured Reviews for Architects in Thornton, CO

Arcadea Architecture
Architects in Thornton, CO
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 August 2014
“David Biek from Arcadea has worked on two projects for us. The first project was restoring a beautiful multi million dollar 4 story grey stone in Chicago. The building was a classic old building in disrepair. David's design work brought the building infastructure into the 21st. century yet he maintained the old world charm. Thanks to the remodel, the building is renting for top dollar. The second project David did for us was some remodleing at our home in Boulder. After the 2013 floods, we had some serious repairs to make on our bottom floor. David redesigned the worst, ugliest bathroom in our home and made it wonderful.The bottom floor has never looked better. You can trust David. He's careful, fair priced, thoughtful, imaginative, and always has good follow through.”
TKP Architects
Architects in Thornton, CO
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 November 2013
“The architects at TKP have great vision and practical ideas. I had spent months working with another architect to design an addition to our 55-year-old home but nothing clicked. Then Karen Keating looked all through our home, sat down and in a matter of minutes roughly sketched out a plan which included a dining nook, den, office, bath and storage room. I knew we'd found the firm with which we wanted to work. Everyone that we worked with at TKP was respectful of our ideas, and then made them even better. We love our three-year-old, 1000 square foot "new" space. It flows beautifully with the original house.”
Summit Studio Architects
Architects in Thornton, CO
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 April 2014
“When selecting an architectural firm for our outdoor living space addition and related interior remodel, we were prepared for the notion that we were going to be taking a long journey together! We wanted an architect that fostered trust and mutual respect, shared a common vision with us and was a healthy communicator. Natalie and Pat provided us with the highest level of experience and service. Their impeccable sense of design and understanding for how to create a space that would perfectly meet our needs over time was faultless. My wife and I love the outdoors in Colorado and with a generous outdoor living space including lounge seating, kitchen, large custom designed fire pit and jacuzzi, it's a substantial addition to our home. The project went smoothly from start to finish and we can't be more complementary about the way that Natalie and Pat led the process. Both offered such a positive attitude in exploring our options and in trouble shooting the challenges that we wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend this firm!!”
Forward Architecture, LLC.

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 July 2020
“I pretty much knew want I wanted to do with my project. I warned Ellen I knew enough about architecture to be dangerous. Ellen recognized my requirements and was instrumental in identifying other considerations needed for the project. Included was a need for a code variance (setback). I was informed by the city, before starting the project, a code allowance(variance) was not required. Ellen’s code research was right. A code allowance was required. With her help, the review board approved the code allowance request unanimously. Our project involves bumping the attached garage eight feet to allow for a utility room between the garage and house. The design includes moving the washer and dryer out of the basement. As simple as the project sounds, there is a lot involved. Ellen listened to my wife’s concerns and ideas on the project. Together we achieved a very efficient design. We are now in the permit and construction phase of the project. I am looking forward to Ellen’s input. Ellen deserves your serious consideration.”
Caddis, PC
Architects in Thornton, CO
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars22 July 2014
“I recently worked with Caddis to design a home I'm building in Boulder County. The timeline took longer than anticipated but they did an excellent job designing the home and working to ensure all of the needs we had were being met. They were very responsive through the entire process and made many suggestions that helped shape a project that we are very excited about and plan to break ground on in the next month or two. If you need an architect in Boulder County, I highly recommend Caddis PC.”

“A fantastic experience on a major renovation to a 1970's ranch. The Team at SSArchitechs worked with us from the first concepts for the plan until we moved into the house. The entire team turned our wish list into a complete vision. Every step of the plan stayed on schedule and on budget! We would definitely use SSArchitects on our next project.”

“I have worked with Dave on multiple custom mountain builds and have found him very through, open to comments, and responsive before and during the build process. We are currently working on two additional builds in Gilpin County were his support and input are greatly appreciated.”

“Nate, and the amazing group of professionals with whom he works, helped us to open up our dark and boring entrance into a bright and welcoming space. He designed a hidden closet disguised by a bookshelf to utilize dead space to store our cleaning supplies (we love showing this to guests!). And made the suggestion that we lay our tiled floor on a diagonal to add a subtle touch of elegance to the hallway. Nate spent the time to listen to our ideas and visions for the space and he utilized his talent, skills and years of experience to design a space that we love; we couldn’t be happier with the way it all came together!”
Hampton Architecture
Architects in Thornton, CO
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 August 2015
“First – know that Hampton Architecture is fantastic to work with. Hampton Architecture assisted my wife and me in making our vision of a modern off-grid cabin a reality. The services started with education and consultation. Hampton Architecture worked with us to collect our idea, and worked within constrains we set. Hampton Architecture painted a clear picture of the process (from concept to Certificate of Occupancy). Ethan presented a design that incorporated all of our objectives for this special property. He even took the time for an extensive site visit to capture the feel of the living land, the view angles, the topography, landscape and colors. I have minor building experience and we were not sure of the reliability of local trades in the remote mountain location – above Marble, CO. Hampton Architecture took care of all the details to get us an approved building permit with Gunnison County (one of the more stringent building code requirement Counties in the State of Colorado). Hampton Architecture proposed a building solution that would minimize our need for local labor – SIP. During the build, Ethan was available for the very few time necessary to clarify plan details – there were 4 total clarifications needed. In the end, we finish with a cabin of our dreams, built within the schedule and budget that we could afford. I’m happy to recommend Hampton Architecture to anyone how needs help turning a vision into a reality.”

A well-chosen architect can design a home that is specifically tailored to your family's lifestyle. Highly competent and professionally-trained designers, many architects in Thornton, CO also use sustainable design principles to maximise the site and materials used, so your home uses less energy and saves you money in the long term.

If your renovation is more than a simple benchtop replacement or roof re-tiling job, then it may be time to find an architect in Thornton, CO who can manage your project from start to finish. Depending on the architecture firm you hire, the scope can span from planning sustainable design into your renovations, to selecting furniture and even interior finishes.

How do I find the right architect for my home design project?


An architect is often the first person you hire for your project. Before taking steps to find an architect in Thornton, CO, ask yourself what you want to achieve from your renovation or home construction. Do you want to improve the liveability and sustainability of your home, or simply expand? What style of architecture do you prefer? Once you have established your motivation, research architects that have completed similar house designs in your 80023 locale and within a comparable budget to yours.

Undergoing renovations, house extensions or building a new home entirely can be stressful. For this reason, it’s important that you and your chosen architect get along and share the same values, especially if you require an architect to help you refine your brief. To establish this rapport, you may need to meet several times with the architects on your shortlist before making a final decision on who you hire. The relationship you have with your architect is very personal, and will involve discussions of your habits, hobbies and tastes, so you want to ensure you have picked someone you feel comfortable in sharing this information with.

Most importantly, you need to trust that your architect will manage your home improvement or house design within budget, while working with site constraints, and coordinating the relationships of all parties involved in the project.

Ideally, your Thornton, CO architect will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. Your architect may be needed to select and hire Colorado subcontractors (e.g. builders, engineers and landscape architects) just as they may need to negotiate contracts with stakeholders. A good client-architect relationship will ensure they are your biggest advocate along the way during construction.

Finally, remember that the most well-known or established architect may not provide the right architectural services for your needs. It all comes down to the individual project.
