The other day I dropped by a friend’s house in my neighborhood.  She’s gearing up for a major home remodel and commented that she was meeting with an interior designer the next day, but wasn’t even sure what to ask.  We’ve probably all felt like that at one time or another before meeting with a professional, and there are probably people who hesitate to call an architect for that very reason.  The American Institute of Architects has provided a handy list of questions on their website for those thinking about hiring an architect: what to ask your architect.

Feel free to ask us any of these.  We encourage you to visit the AIA’s website for resources that explain the design process, what architects do, and tools to help you through the design process.
