Charlie Smith has been designing quality custom homes and commercial buildings in Central Texas and the Texas Hill Country for almost 30 years. He knows from the moment you make the decision to build, you need someone who will be with you throughout the entire process.
Building Designer vs. Architect.
Most people think they need an Architect to design their home, but that is not true. A building Designer can provide everything that an Architect provides in residential home designs- from plan designs to full sets of construction drawings.
Building Designers are required to meet all building codes and subdivision requirements that an Architect does. The Building Designer can design up to 20,000 sq. ft. and up to two stories for commercial projects.
The only major difference between a Building Designer and an Architect is the price you pay for the same work. Building Designers generally charge half the price an Architect charges which makes it more affordable for a Building Designer's clients and builders.
