From Concept to Keys

A Process You Can Trust

We know that building a custom home is one of the most personal and meaningful investments you’ll ever make. That’s why we’ve built a clear, dependable process that puts you at the center — every step of the way.

1

Planning & Design

It all begins with a conversation. We take the time to learn about your vision, lifestyle needs, design preferences, and budget. From there, we work closely with you and your design team — or help assemble one — to develop architectural plans and detailed specifications. We’ll help you think through everything from layout and materials to finishes and sustainability goals, with an eye toward efficiency and long-term livability.
2

Pricing & Contract

Once the design is finalized, we obtain firm bids from our trusted network of trade contractors and material suppliers. With this information, we present you with a fixed-price contract. That means no hidden fees, no surprises — just clarity and peace of mind from day one.
3

Permits & Construction

We handle all the permitting, scheduling, and day-to-day coordination so you don’t have to worry about the logistics. Our crew—including many long-standing craftsmen—takes pride in every detail of the build, from the framing to the in-house finish work. You’ll be kept in the loop with regular updates and walkthroughs, and we’re always available for questions or concerns as the project moves forward.

Designed for the Way You Live

Your home should feel like a natural extension of your life — tailored to how you move, gather, cook, relax, and recharge. Whether you’re envisioning an open-concept great room, a chef’s kitchen with custom cabinetry, or a spa-like primary suite, we’ll build it with the level of quality, comfort, and elegance you expect in a high-end custom home.

We also understand the challenges and opportunities that come with Oregon’s climate. From incorporating passive solar design and energy-efficient windows to using locally sourced materials that stand up to wet winters and sunny summers, our homes are built with both beauty and practicality in mind.
