Builder vs. Architect

 

 

VIDALIS ARCHITECTS: Michael A. Vidalis, Ph.D & Associates

When considering a new home, this is the classic middle-class dilemma.  However, these are the numbers:

Builder / Developer: 20% — 30% Profit. 
RESULT: Fast reproduction of a copied design.
 
Architect: 7% — 12% Fee 
RESULT: A transparent fee to advocate for your budget and design a unique solution.
 
So, do you want a personalized space - home or office - that's more budget-friendly, or you just want to head to a builder like most people do? 
 
Besides the cost difference, does a builder / developer  offer "architecture", ergonomics, bioclimatic or biophilic design? Obviously no...
