Okay, let’s tackle this. So Carlos has skills like architectural design, design research, sustainable design, and interior design, which are all in demand. He’s based in Miami, which is a hub for architecture and design. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median annual salary for architects in the Miami-Fort Lauderdale-West Palm Beach area is around $95,000. However, considering his expertise in sustainable design, which is a highly sought-after skill, I’d estimate his rate to be on the higher side. Let’s look at some benchmarks. According to Indeed, the average hourly rate for an architect in Miami is around $80–$120 per hour. However, for someone with Carlos’ level of expertise, especially in sustainable design, I’d estimate his rate to be around $100–$150 per hour. So I’ll settle on $125 per hour, considering his skills and location.
