The Publisher
The decision to build a new custom home is the launching of a journey that provides a family with a beautiful home tailored specifically to their family’s lifestyle for now and in the future. The journey of design and construction is a process, while daunting at times, will give a complete understanding of the elements of a custom designed and built home. It will enlighten you to the features and operation of your new home, allowing using it to its full potential and expanding the enjoyment your family will get from your investment in money and time. Upon completion the satisfaction for the journey and the end results will provide a lifetime memory.
There is a perception that designing a custom home and engaging a professional architect and interior designer is reserved for those who are affluent. Not true. The square footage and the purchased appliances and décor are relevant to the overall cost, but the quality of design and construction are common to any home. Designed and built right, a home will stand and serve families for generations. Technology in all areas of our lives is expanding in quantum leaps and the operation of a home is part of the technology growth. To this end, it is a wise person that consults with those whose business is to be trained with solid design principles, with practical design and build experience and whose profession requires them to stay current with trends and regulations. At the end of the day design professionals will save you money with their advice.
