Twin Cities Architect

Full Service Residential Architectural Services

Change is inevitable. Good change is good. Many people are afraid to seek out the help of an architect. You may have never worked with an architect and be unsure as to where to start. Or, you may be concerned that the cost will be prohibitive. I offer several package options that allow you to get the information and ideas you need to move forward with no surprises in pricing.

Why Hire An Architect?

Using an architect means you will understand all of the options available.
Architects, because of our extensive education, passion and decades of experience, are not bound by the materials we need to offload or “the way our crew always does things.” This means more creative options. This means getting what you want, not what is convenient for the builder.
Your architect is your advocate. Your architect is your liaison between you and the builder. In some cases your architect also acts as the intermediary between you and the city, an advisory board, HOA or Heritage Preservation Commission (HPC).
Architects see all of the options.

Builders are not architects. Designers are not architects. Only architects can sign drawings. Only registered architects have taken and passed the grueling, seven section, three-day architectural registration exam (ARE). There is a difference.

Experience Matters

About Guy Williams Architecture

I started working solo in 1990 after a decade of working for big firms. I’ve done commercial buildings, multi-family homes, churches, shopping malls and other public buildings. My passion however, has always been single family residential. I’ve been practicing architecture since 1982.

Guy is easy to work with. He listens to my ideas and together we have found creative solutions to several remodeling projects including turning an empty attic into a master suite, a simple cabin into a beautiful retreat, & a cramped kitchen into a bright family space.

As a real estate agent I know what good design looks like and feels like. I hired Guy both as an architect and a builder to remodel my bathroom with a request to have it fit into the existing mid-century architecture. Guy did a fabulous job. I refer him to my clients.
