Our Seamless Design-Build Process
We offer an end-to-end service, simplifying the complex new construction journey into six clear phases:
Site & Concept Planning
We assess your land, confirm zoning, and begin preliminary architectural sketching based on your lifestyle needs and aesthetic goals.
Design & Specification
Our architects finalize floor plans, elevations, and detailed 3D renderings. You choose all materials, from the structural components to every door handle and tile finish.
Permitting & Engineering
We handle all necessary structural engineering and take responsibility for submitting and managing all city permits to ensure a prompt start date.
Foundation & Framing
The structure takes shape. We pour the foundation and complete the framing, mechanical rough-ins (plumbing, electrical), and roofing—transforming the lot into a defined structure.
Finishes & Fixtures
We install interior and exterior finishes: siding, drywall, flooring, custom cabinetry, countertops, trim work, and high-end fixtures.
Final Walkthrough & Handover
After final inspections and cleaning, we conduct a detailed walkthrough. You receive the keys to your brand-new, move-in-ready custom home.

The Advantage of Custom New Construction
Why build new instead of remodeling? New construction offers complete control over every element, resulting in maximum efficiency, value, and personalization.
Zero Compromise
There are no existing walls, layouts, or structural limitations to restrict your creativity. You dictate the exact floor plan, ceiling heights, window placement, and room flow, resulting in a home that is 100% optimized for your needs.
Integrated Efficiency
New builds allow us to integrate the latest energy-efficient systems from the foundation up. This includes superior insulation, modern HVAC, solar readiness, and smart home technology that significantly reduces lifetime utility costs and increases property value.
Lasting Quality & Peace of Mind
With all-new materials and systems, you eliminate the risk and expense associated with hidden issues in older homes (e.g., outdated wiring, plumbing, and foundations). Your investment is protected by comprehensive warranties on every system and component.
Code Compliant Design
We ensure your entire structure is designed and built to meet the very latest California building codes and seismic standards, providing maximum security and long-term peace of mind.
