I have received a few private comments regarding my last post and I though I should probably share a few of them.
1. Hiring a licensed Architect does not always guarantee a good design.
I agree.
2. A slick web site doesn’t guarantee good design.
No argument from me. I have stories.
3. Additional costs of poor design include:
- Redesign after construction starts – much more expensive that pre-construction changes.
- Framing mistakes due to poor dimensioning
- Little or no detailing
I’m sure there is more that can be added and I invite everyone to have their say.
