Exterior Designers?

[Dan D.]

Hello,

Does anyone know the right terms or profession I should be looking into to find an "exterior designer"?

I am looking to change the siding of an existing home, and would like a visual representation prior to making expensive decisions on what finishes to go with.  (Stone, siding, etc).

I know some siding companies will do this, but I'd like to get it done independently of an installation company so I'm getting a unbiased view on this.

Am I looking for an architect in this case, or is there a different name for this.

Anyone with any suggestions in the Minneapolis area, feel free to offer a recommendation or PM me.

Thanks.
