New York Construction Expert Offers Advice On Choosing the Right Architect

The team from Arc III Construction Corp., a Brooklyn construction management firm offering an array of construction services, says that choosing the right architect for a remodeling or construction job is the key to a successful project. “A good architect brings a construction concept, whether it is for a remodeling job or new construction, to life,” says Alex Chiesi, president and founder of Arc III Construction Corp., a full service design, remodeling, and construction firm made up of certified professionals that can assist clients in every phase of any construction project. “It takes more than a keen eye for design, however, for an architect to be the right professional for the job.”

When looking for an architect, Chiesi says it is important to look for someone that shares the vision of the client and has a portfolio that reflects his or her ability to bring that vision to life. It is just as important though, he says, to hire an architect that is easy to work with and can listen to the needs of the client.

“When it comes to design, communication is the key to success,” says Chiesi. “When it comes to good communication, it is not just the relationship between the architect and the client, but the relationship between the architect and the contractor or anyone else involved in the construction project.”

Chiesi and his team form a one-stop construction firm serving the tri-state area and they have worked with countless architects over the years. In some cases, clients bring in their own architects, but the Arc III team can also provide clients with professional architects that the company has worked closely with in the past.

“We love bringing teams together for a job,” says Chiesi. “We have in-house flooring, plumbing, electric, and mechanical experts, as well as skilled craftsman, that know how to get the job done right. We know what it takes to work with an architect to help bring a client’s vision to life. It’s all part of a well-oiled machine.”
