Every contractor that Jenny recommended from survey, septic, and builders we met with were all very professional. We did not have to expand our search beyond any of Jenny’s recommendations. She made the entire process very simple and stress free." |
TEAM WORK makes the dream work!

COMMUNICATION is key!
We ALWAYS prioritize communication and encourage you to reach out with any questions you might have. No question is silly or too small. After all, you’re not supposed to be the expert in building design, we are! |
Jenny always promptly responded to our phone calls and emails. She patiently answered all of our crazy questions. Her word and commitment is as good as gold.” |
It's All About the Views!Jenny's lifelong connection with Mother Nature inspired her to design for greater integration between the indoors and outdoors.
We believe each house should utilize the natural features of a site by maximizing the best views possible and working with the sun path across the property to create a comfortable home uniquely suited to its environment. By incorporating biophilic design techniques, we’re able to bring the aesthetic beauty and natural healing properties of the surrounding environment into your home. |
Jenny is excellent at maximizing the view and considering the natural terrain of the property, both of which are very important to a lake front house." |
Jenny's Story, from Tragedy to Triumph
A couple of major life events in Jenny's mid 20’s helped mold the designer she is today. Though they were mighty challenging at the time, she's grateful for the lessons they provided, sending her on a path that would differentiate her skills in the industry.

The success of Pippin Home Designs has been greatly enhanced since my husband, superhero, forever teammate, and partner in life, Wes Stearns, joined me full-time in the business in 2014. We have continued to grow and thrive ever since.
He supports me and our clients with his skills in CADD, 3-D CADD, his invaluable input as a professional photographer and artist, and by making sure I take a break when I need to. I, and all our clients, are grateful for the myriad of ways he enhances the entire process. We look forward to joining you on the path of designing your future. Welcome Home! |
