    Featured Reviews for Architectural Designers Woman-Owned

    Jeanne Liem Architecture + Design
    Architectural Designers Woman-Owned
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 25, 2013
    “I strongly recommend Jeanne Liem. My company worked with her on designing and building-out residential projects. Jeanne has a terrific aesthetic and is really hard working. She took the time to truly understand what we wanted and made our vision a reality. From beginning until the end, she has been very professional, responsive, proactive, and being able to come up with multiple solutions to simple and complex problems we encountered during construction. Their design elements are so elegant and well matched with our concept that exceeded my expectations in many ways. Also, they did all those within the budget requirements. They were flexible in all the areas we worked. She made everything so easy and smooth. I do not even want to imagine what would happen if we have taken another route instead of working with her.”
    Paredes-Grube Architecture
    Architectural Designers Woman-Owned
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 7, 2014
    “Xiomara and team completed the design for our project - a 3 story addition to our 1920's home. We are in the process of adding a finished basement/media room, first floor mud room/powder room/family room, second floor master suite, and third floor bedroom/bath. We chose to work with Xiomara because of her focus on seemlessly incorporating the new with the old - you cannot tell we have even done an addition. Our project was complex and required reworking the entire clay tile roof line. Our house now functions beautifully. Xiomara had many great ideas and she took our rough concept of what we needed and has transformed our home. I would highly recommend Xiomara and her team.”
    Anne Architecture

    Average rating: 4 out of 5 starsJanuary 17, 2016
    “S. Diane Johnson Photography photographed the finished project for Anne Sciarrone Architecture, LLC. Anne's work is beautiful and she is a very strong professional. I have worked with her on other projects and each time has been a delight.”
    Moser Architects PLLC
    Architectural Designers Woman-Owned
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 3, 2016
    “I recommended Moser Architects, PLLC to everyone looking to build or renovate in the DMV area. Sarah took our quaint Cape Cod home in North Arlington and made it into a beautiful home for a growing family. We told Sarah how we wanted to keep the charm and curb appeal that fit the neighborhood, and she surpassed our expectations. Our home could not be more functional thanks to Sarah's expertise, and we are always receiving compliments. Our open floor plan with large amounts of natural light could not be more perfect. If we ever take the plunge to purchase another home in NOVA in need of renovations, Sarah will receive the first phone call.”

    “Our project is still in progress, but Gina has been wonderful to work with. She's come up with ideas that we'd never considered that we love.”
    H2D Architecture + Design
    Architectural Designers Woman-Owned
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 4, 2013
    “We LOVE working with Heidi at H2D A+D. Down to earth, super creative, and exceptionally organized. Having completed projects of all types and sizes we know first hand how important it is to have an effective leader guiding things from the beginning. Each time we work with Heidi the plans are thorough, clear, & easy to interpret… so that by the time we show up to perform our tasks, we are set up to do nothing but succeed. Each job has that enjoyable, team approach and energy. And who wins? Everybody! Thanks Heidi!”
    Transforming Architecture LLC
    Architectural Designers Woman-Owned
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 19, 2013
    “Karen at Transforming Architecture was reccoemnded by my real estate agent as she had done work on his home. At our first meeting she gave us an idea of the scope of the projects she has accomplished and the fee structure. She really listened to our ideas and concerns for our kitchen renovation. Karen presented 3 visions for our renovation, one with exactly what we asked for and then two other options. The third design presented involved moving our kitchen and creating an open floor plan. This was beyond anything we could have imagined o our own and made the best use of the space and our renovation dollars. We are currently under construction but Karen is readily available to answer questions and make edits to the design. It is a pleasure to work with her and I can't wait to see her vision come to fruition.”

    “Christie was our architect for a very transformative remodel of our entire house. From a very dated 1970's styled house, that was built originally in the 1920's. She was everything we needed in an architect. Creative, responsive, and very professional. We would highly recommend her services.”

She is responsive to inquiries and problem solving, and understands what designs would be appropriate for my target markets. Her designs have been sought after throughout my community, and I was happy that I had chosen her to design my homes.”

    Architect or Building Designer FAQs
    The duration of an architectural project can vary widely depending on its scope and complexity. A simple home renovation may take several months from design to completion, while a new construction project could last from one to three years. The design phase typically requires several weeks to several months, factoring in time for revisions and approvals. Communication with your designer will provide a more accurate timeline based on your specific project.
    Architectural Designers stay informed on the latest materials and design trends through continuous education, industry publications, and networking with suppliers and manufacturers. They select materials based not only on aesthetics but also on durability, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness. Designers work closely with homeowners to understand their preferences and lifestyle needs, ensuring the selected materials and trends reflect their tastes while remaining functional and within budget.
    Homeowners should start by defining their project goals, budget, and timeline. Gathering inspiration images or creating a mood board can help communicate your vision to the designer. Itʼs also important to research local zoning laws and building regulations. Preparing a list of questions and concerns for your designer will facilitate a productive initial consultation. Ensuring you have a clear understanding of the design process and what is expected from both parties will help streamline the project.
    Architectural Designers are trained to anticipate and mitigate common challenges such as budget constraints, unexpected site issues, and regulatory compliance. They employ strategic planning, creative problem-solving, and effective communication with clients and contractors. Open and honest dialogue throughout the project helps ensure any challenges are addressed promptly and efficiently, minimizing delays and additional costs.
    Many Architectural Designers possess the skills and knowledge to assist with interior design aspects, creating a cohesive aesthetic and functional flow throughout a home. They can provide services ranging from space planning and furniture selection to the specification of interior finishes. However, the extent of their involvement in interior design varies, so itʼs important to discuss your expectations during the hiring process. For projects requiring specialized interior design, collaborating with a professional interior designer might be recommended.
    When selecting an Architectural Designer, look for qualifications such as a degree in architecture or a related field, licensure (where required), and membership in professional organizations like the AIA. Additionally, a strong portfolio demonstrating relevant experience, testimonials from past clients, and evidence of continuing education are indicators of a dedicated and capable designer. Itʼs also essential to choose someone with good communication skills and a compatible approach to design and project management.
