Home architects typically design homes or additions
to homes to meet the requirements of their clients.
Home architects are entrusted with the responsibility
of offering you a unique home design. Generally
speaking home architects either design completely
new homes based on the plot or suggest building
renovations for rebuilding an existing structure.
Home architects typically study a project and
discuss a "home report", "interior
report", "possible additions" and
the "project folio" with you
before finalizing a design, which in itself is
often a serious undertaking. Once the designs,
blue prints and documents are finalized, home
architects often assist their clients with submitting
these to their local municipality office for approval.
Among other things, this documentation is used
in the process of applying for a building permit
without which the construction process cannot
commence.
Duly qualified home architects can be found all
over Canada, ranging from firms that employ significant
numbers of architects and draft persons to one-person
businesses where the owner is a home architect.
