    **Why You Should Choose a Builder Early**

    Selecting your builder early in the design process helps keep your project on track, on budget, and buildable. With a builder on board from the start, you’ll get real-time cost feedback, avoid delays, and benefit from their construction insight as plans take shape. It also ensures the team is aligned from day one—reducing miscommunication, securing materials and labor sooner, and streamlining the path from design to move-in.

  • 6. Construction Observation

    Ongoing Design Support

    We don’t disappear once the plans are delivered. As construction progresses, we remain available to your builder for design clarifications, site coordination, and adjustments as needed. Whether it’s interpreting details from the plans, making quick revisions, or reviewing onsite conditions, we’re here to help ensure your finished home reflects the design intent—beautifully and accurately
