How do architects charge, and what will this cost?

For most projects we propose a fee as a percentage of construction cost (typically 8–15% depending on type and scope) or a fixed fee for a defined scope; smaller studies are hourly. You receive a clear written proposal with phases, deliverables, and fee before any work begins. The figures on this template are illustrative.

Do you do sustainable / LEED design?

Yes. Our principals are LEED-accredited and sustainability is built into our process, not bolted on. We offer LEED and green-building certification, energy and daylight modeling, embodied-carbon analysis, and net-zero / electrification strategy.
