Deeper design elements are the driving force ultimately leading up to the aesthetic appeal of a finished project, publishes wilhelmarchitects.com

Santa Barbara, CA -- (SBWire) -- 12/03/2015 --According to reports from cooperative statistical website City-Data.com, real estate values have surged by an estimated 65 percent in Santa Barbara and the surrounding areas over the last 15 years. While typical market factors play into this scenario, the current uptick could also be accredited to greater emphasis on local remodeling and high-end construction projects taking place during this time frame. This comes as no surprise to the staff of Wilhelm Architects who have been offering their services in the region for some time.

In response to the upward trend, founder Jerry Wilhelm has launched the firm's recently revamped design approach. Wilhelm confirmed, "Exploring new options in any genre is basic human nature, but in architecture, doing so is crucial to being able to offer clients the best of every aspect of our field. While aesthetic appeal remains at the forefront of most homeowners' minds, deeper elements leading up to the final product is the driving force behind a residential architect. Our latest processes incorporate state-of-the-art design technology, the latest construction techniques, newly developed materials and efficient building practices."

Wilhelm Architects has had a hand in a number of projects throughout Santa Barbara and neighboring cities with expertise lying in custom homes and commercial architect services alike. Past ventures include expansive hillside homes, beach houses, educational facilities and commercial buildings. Their skills cover ground-up design as well as high-end renovations on these types of structures.

While style, comfort and functionality are fundamental aspects for a house architect as well as one in the business sector, sustainability is gaining increasing focus among the various agencies involved in overall approval of a design. Efficiency in initial construction has become a requirement due to a growing need for preservation of natural resources; however, this is also taken into consideration throughout the lifespan of a home, retail facility or other type of project. Numerous additional restraints likewise present themselves throughout all phases of the process.

Concluded Wilhelm, "Whether planning around the unique challenges of FEMA requirements when creating a beach home or aiding commercial clients with expanding despite space constraints while holding to traditional architectural designs, our team has a way of rising to the occasion. By embracing the latest developments in our industry and combining them with our own visions and those of our clients, we are able to produce results meeting all demands surrounding a project. We begin with an intention and desire to create. From that point materializes a work of art Aristotle might deem 'greater than the sum of its parts'."
