Rebecca Poole, Residential Designer
Building Designers in Portsmouth, RI
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars23 November 2020
“I hired Rebecca Poole to draw up plans for a new 2 car garage that I will be having built. When we met with her, and I explained what we were looking for, she took some measurements to begin work. After a very short time, she notified me that the elevations were done, and after that, the final plans were generated. All of the plans were of excellent quality.....very professional !! Rebecca was a pleasure to work with, and her services were reasonably priced. I highly recommend Rebecca if you are looking for this type of service, and would hire her again in a second if needed. Rich P Johnston R.I.”

“As an architect, I had a delightful experience working with Vincent and Will to document existing conditions for a couple of renovation/addition projects that I'm working on at Katie Hutchison Studio. They were highly professional, attentive to detail, and thorough.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars5 September 2017
“I had the opportunity to work with Maureen in a redesign of an awkward first floor plan. I felt her insights and recommendations were sensible, cost effective and made the spaces both more user friendly as well as more efficient. She was easy to work with and sensitive to our time constraints. John”
Duxborough Designs
Building Designers in Portsmouth, RI
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 February 2013
“We met Doug while searching for a new home. Our realtor recommended him to us. We knew we wanted to find a place in town and then renovate it. Doug actually worked with us on 2 posibilities that fell through and then with the 3rd which we bought. He did the leg work on all 3 with the town hall and the building inpector to make sure we could do the renovations we were thinking of for them prior to making an offer. While working with Doug on our plans we found him to be very professional - always willing to meet with us and incorporate the changes in the designs to meet our vision. Doug went above and beyond to make sure our permits were in order. He actually attended 2 different Town Building Design meetings with me to answer any questions they had regarding our plans. He gave us an estimate and stayed true to that .... He worked well with our builder and the job went smoothly. I would definite use Doug again in the future. WE LOVE OUR HOUSE !! It is exactly what we wanted -- thanks to Doug and our builder.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 January 2021
“The best there is. I’ve worked with many 3D rendering specialist over the years and none produce the quality and realism as the folks at Sparrow Hill. Their renderings are nearly indistinguishable from reality, they can truly bring your visions to life.”

RL Design
Building Designers in Portsmouth, RI
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars8 May 2017
“Richard saved us! Is is so difficult to find someone with building experience who also can architecturally design a home. Our project was both a restoration and a new addition. It is also is in a historical district near the ocean. Richard has provided us with a beautifully designed home with many intelligent design elements. Our home has small and large living areas, plenty of storage, a chef's kitchen, and a gorgeous outside shower. Richard has also chosen products which will make our home need less maintenance in the future. We were extremely fortunate to find Richard and recommend him with five stars!”

How to find the right building designer in Portsmouth, RI for your build or renovation


As with all other professional services for home design and renovation, the best way to choose a building designer is to assess their past work against the style and requirements you have for your individual project.Most states don’t have specific registration processes for building designers, so it’s best that your search is based on past work and referrals. Some industry bodies or professional associations, such as the Building Designers Association of Victoria (BDAV), offer a list of members, which you can check against bodies such as the Victorian Building Authority (VBA), to gauge their type of work and any registration numbers.

Once you have a shortlist of building designers, engage in face-to-face talks about your brief, to ensure you’re on the same page. To get the most value for your money, you want someone who understands you, agrees with your ideas – in relation to sustainable design, space and function – and has the qualifications and enthusiasm to translate ideas to paper and into a reality.
