Kennedy Architecture
Architects in Friendswood, TX
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars22 February 2024
“We worked with Kennedy Architecture to build our home. From day 1, Troy was always available to answer questions, make changes, help with design and decor decisions, basically everything I needed. He would help me with ideas, color choices, etc. He created 3D renderings so that we could better understand what he was creating. He is a top notch professional and I highly recommend him for your home design! Thanks so much Troy for everything! Andrea”

“I've done a few jobs with Paul. Paul has great design sense and his drawings are clear and detailed. Paul is demanding but easy to work with and helpful to always keep the project moving. I would not hesitate to recommend Paul for any project.”

“The RD team are outstanding. Despite the trepidation of re-building, RD made it a true pleasure, fun and extremely rewarding.

“Always a pleasure to work with this firm. Very professional and courteous. Worked on large glazed lavastone countertops for a kitchen / residential Jean Pauwels at Pyrolave USA”
Allure Consulting & Design Company LLC
Architects in Friendswood, TX
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars23 July 2022
“Excellent to work with Allure - I had some pretty detailed work. And I had a few revisions, as I kept changing what I was looking for, and they were patient with me. The final product was perfect - and that was due to Allure's commitment to providing exactly what I wanted. Cannot recommend them enough.”
2Scale Architects
Architects in Friendswood, TX
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars1 February 2013
“Greg Swedberg is the principal at 2Scale Architects. We chose him based on the recommendation of a well-known Houston builder. He is proving to be, not only a highly talented architect, but an invaluable asset in navigating the vagaries of choosing just the right builder and decorator. We particularly like the way he personally bonds with his design and works to see that his client’s visions and concepts materialize accurately in 3D. His acumen is that of a well-seasoned architect but his age puts him in touch with contemporary techniques and state-of-the-art design practices. He’s easy to work with and is honest in conveying practical solutions to a client’s personal taste in design.”
Espinal Architects, LLC
Architects in Friendswood, TX
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 November 2015
“Al was the consummate professional! He developed plans for my home. He's was very knowledgeable of current trends and took my general ideas/needs and made suggestions based on that and put it into pictures for me to see very quickly. He knew the style that I wanted and gave me input on things that would look good - he added detail that I can't imagine living without (barrel ceiling, built-in cabinets, special utensil drawers). He followed up on the construction site and even pointed out when those details were accidentally left out - I had not even noticed! I had worked with one other architect before AL and I can't imagine using anyone else for future projects. He is very easy to work with, met my deadlines and very affordable. I highly recommend him!!”
Jay Baker Architects
Architects in Friendswood, TX
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 May 2017
“We just completed a major remodel on our home with Jay Baker Architects. We couldn't have asked for a better experience! The entire team was extremely professional, diligent and hard working-not to mention really nice people. They stayed true to the historical significance of the house while also making it more modern and livable. We are so pleased with the final outcome and highly recommend these amazing architects.”
Fonseca Design Group
Architects in Friendswood, TX
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 March 2011
“Rick has done a tremendous job for me over the last eight years. His architectural work has ranged from a modern barn, pool house/outdoor kitchen,trophy/game room, an expansion, remodel and new construction of a two story home and a one and a half story home. The Fonseca Group was easy to work with and always found time to fit me into their schedule. He did a great job working as a team player with the engineers and general contractors and always met his deadlines on the design and revisions which kept our numerous projects on track and within my budget. If you choose to use The Fonseca Group, you will get the experience and the professional's that every project needs. ”

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 Friendswood, TX 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 Friendswood, TX 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 Friendswood, TX, 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 Friendswood 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 Friendswood, TX 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 Texas 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.
