Architects in Columbia, MD

About us: "I am an effective, pragmatic, results-oriented, customer-service award-winning licensed senior architect and engineer with almost 30 years of design, construction and development experience. I offer my expertise of having designed almost 500 projects over that time, including over 300 custom homes, as well as having been a senior property inspector and president of 3 architecture firms. I specialize in affordable housing and historic buildings and I have assembled a team of senior freelance engineers and drafters that are experienced with large multi-family, retail, hospitality and custom residential projects. I work remotely from my home in Baja California and my drafters are in the Philippines, so my team can offer you the same quality of work that you would get from a traditional firm for a fraction of the price. Most importantly, I strongly believe in quality, honesty and teamwork. Find out why I'm a top-rated architect here and previously on Angie's List, Yelp and UpWork!"

"I placed a notice on Angi that I desperately needed an architect. I was given a list of 5 companies, however Campbell Architects (CA) contacted me first. As a matter of fact, I do not recall any of the other companies reaching out to me. When I tell you that Johnathan Campbell stepped in and did what I needed him to do which was to draw a PLAT of my property, he also went above and beyond what one would expect someone as busy as him to do. He came in and recognized that in addition to needing a PLAT, I was also having a terrible time getting the work on my property completed because a hostile neighbor continuously contacted the DOB with false statements causing me to incur numerous Stop Work Orders. When I asked Mr. Campbell what his experience was with this sort of thing, he told me and then offered his help. What I found was a very thoughtful, quiet, and professional architect who had seen it all. Not only did he understand the situation with the neighbor, he also understood my plight with the DOB and set about methodically, and very carefully stepping in to argue my case for me. He has the experience, he has the knowledge, he has the patience and he is an established and well known architect in this area, and highly respected at the DOB. It took me six months to get a response from the DOB, but once Mr. Campbell stepped in, it only took one day. My point here is that the magnitude of an individual's professionalism, knowledge and capabilities is reflected in the work product and engagement experience you the homeowner will receive. Here, Mr. Campbell made a WORLD of difference in my life as a homeowner trying to do her best against a system of mostly men who know the system, who can be cavalier and do not really care that we the homeowners have become frustrated with DOB. Mr. Campbell is an ANGEL. If you ever need an architect, he is your guy. He is a no nonsense kind of man who really, really cares about people and understands that most homeowners are "no match" for the DOB machine that controls the movement of homeowners here in the DMV. I am so grateful to Angi for creating a platform where I could find Mr. Campbell. I honestly do not know if I could have survived my nightmare ordeal without his knowledge, strength and capabilities. I now consider him to be a friend. I was shocked that he was willing to help me with the crazy man next door, but he took all of that on. He has made a difference in my mental health and ability to complete the work that I started, which the neighbor constantly stopped. I feel that I got more than an architect when I met Mr. Campbell. When people tell me they need an architect I always tell them JOHNATHAN CAMPBELL FROM CAMPBELL ARCHITECTS. This is the best company I have worked with in years. So grateful to have met him."

"I hired him for plans for a rooftop deck. Joseph was fantastic! His workmanship was great! He was nice, responsive, flexible, and fast. I would recommend him to any friend or family member."
