There are MANY paths to the final destination of a new home. All paths will get you there, but where they differ is in degree of difficulty. You want your process to be as easy as possible, with the understanding that the path of home design and build is inherently arduous. Yes, it is rewarding, enlightening, and beautiful!

The Terrain & View
The terrain and available views of your building site should be top priority for your designer.
Many new homes have challenging building sites, especially those in the lake and mountain areas where we specialize.
Designing a home is like putting together a puzzle. Some of the most important pieces of the puzzle come from the environment. Make sure your designer has already established an intimate relationship with Mother Nature and is able to decipher important clues like lay of the land, movement of the sun, seasonal weather patterns, tree coverage, water runoff, and more. When your home is complete it should look as though it truly belongs on the site it was designed for. The Summit
