With so many architects in Chennai claiming to be the best, it is vital that you do a bit of research before jumping into a conclusion. When you are building a new house, ensure that you get connected with a few local architects who have years of experience in the field.
You will have the tendency to pick just one architect and entrust him with all the building process without giving a second thought. But when you interview two or more architects, you would get to realize that the second architect was better than the first in many ways.
Question the architects; express your desires and let them come up with their ideas; choose the architect who meets your expectations.
**Here are a few questions you should ask before choosing an architect in Chennai;
1) What are the various projects you have worked on?**
Before, your architect starts chanting about his efficacy and diligence, ask him if he has worked on other similar projects in the same locality. Ask him about the usual challenges he faces during the building process.
2) Who will design my house?
When an architect represents a company, ensure that you ask him as to who would be handling the designing process. Express your interest to meet him in person; a reputable organization would always be happy to meet your expectations.
3) In what ways would you help me with the Project?
Few architects offer more than just designs and blueprints. Ask him about the other project management services he is willing to offer; few architects in Chennai help hiring contractors, making design adjustments during the process, managing and reviewing invoices, etc.
4) How much would he charge?
Some architects ask for a percentage of the total project while few others have a fixed price based on the design required. Ensure that he provides a very clear price sheet along with the deliverables so that you are sure of the processes you are paying for.
Finally, the person you choose should have incredible and creative thoughts; he should be a good listener and must also be a problem solver.
