I'd heard that architects were expensive. I chose not to believe it. We met with an architect last week and discussed all of our wants and needs. We got a proposal of $14,000 today. YIKES!!! I've been playing with the demo of the $2500 Chief Architect (www.chiefarchitect.com) application and am thinking perhaps we can just design the house ourselves. We've gotten in touch with two draftsmen (designers as they like to be called) and are going to meet with them in the next few days.
One of them, Scott Sullivan, is kind of a big time guy and designs plans we've seen before on the Southern Living and Coastal Living websites. We figure he can't be as expensive as the architect. The other draftsmen is John Croom and we'll probably meet with him next week.
