Design • Build
We offer a design + build team which makes our building process extremely efficient.
Our Process
Whether you are building your first home, an investment property or a luxury primary home, building can be overwhelming. Given the amount of time, money and numerous decisions that need to be made, you want to make sure that you choose building partners that are reliable, trusted experts that can guide you through the process, build the right team of suppliers and attract skilled labor to get the job done in budget and on schedule. It doesn’t hurt to like the people you will work with for a year or more as well.
With over 20 years of experience in the building process as trusted custom homebuilders and investors alike, we have fine tuned our process for success. With good communication, focus and some fun along the way, we strive to be good partners and even better friends.

The main goal during this phase is to gather information. During the Pre-Design phase, we will research and document your property to understand the context for your design. We also meet with you to discuss what you value in a home, and the spaces, functionality, and styles that inspire you. This provides a foundation for selecting a perfectly suited design team if you do not already have one.
-
This is the phase where we examine how each of the spaces could be laid out to flow, and start conversations about form, materials and aesthetics. The architect and designer explore a variety of concepts and communicate to you through hand sketch ideas, computer modeling, and floor plans. We refine the concept together with you through multiple discussions and iterations as we narrow in on a solution to develop further.
-
During the Design Development phase we refine the layout and start locking in dimensions, engage the structural engineer and begin working on budget, cost, and scheduling.
-
This is where we reconcile the design ideas, specify the materials and systems in the building, and refine all of the architectural details. We work closely with you to select and document the fixtures & finishes that will complete the home.
-
The Pre-construction phase is all about getting a set of drawings converted into a building. We place orders, finalize selections with vendors, select subcontractors and develop the project schedule to determine a completion timeframe.
-
Our teams of craftsmen have the education, knowledge, experience, and passion for working with you and bringing your dream to life. We pride ourselves in best-in-class customer service while running the cleanest job site possible.
The construction process takes an incredible amount of time and it's messy, but our team will make this a fun and exciting experience and will continue to involve your family throughout the process.

One of the most important parts of our design and build process is to help our clients layer their own unique lifestyle over what we have created together. We offer full-service interior design services to help you select/procure finishes, fixtures, and assets for your new experience. After your project is built, we can also help to stage your interior spaces.
