Just curious how much is the architect fee?[/quote]

Architect's fees, along with engineers and other expenditures BEFORE construction, are called "soft costs" and should range in the 12-18% of final construction cost. Depending on the services included, the architect alone should charge 8%-12% of the anticipated construction cost. 
Beware though that different architects charge differently. Some will charge a clean percentage of the construction cost, others will charge hourly and others will charge a flat fee for different package services.
I am one of those that charge a flat fee broken down per design phases. The fees are based on the complexity and size of the project compared to similar projects done in 2 years. 
Still, if you plan to hire an architect, their fee will represent a percentage of the construction cost of the project.
I hope this clarifies!
