Guest Houses & Specialty Builds

Not every custom project is a primary residence. From guest houses and casitas to backyard offices, above-garage apartments, conservatories, and specialty structures, we create thoughtfully planned spaces designed around your property and the way you intend to use them.

Guest Houses, Casitas & ADUs

Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and casitas are designed to add functional living space without compromising the overall property. These buildings are typically used for giving aging parents their own space while still being close to home, guest houses, pool houses and private offices.

Conservatories are custom-designed structures and are not offered as standard floor plans. Each project is tailored to the architecture of the home, the orientation of the property, and the surrounding landscape to create a glass garden space that feels like a natural extension of your home. Whether used as a greenhouse, garden room, or light-filled living space, each conservatory is custom-designed with structural integrity and aesthetics in mind, creating a unique feature that elevates your entire property.

Shell-Only Construction

Small modern house with white exterior walls, black window frames, and a metal roof, situated in a wooded area with dirt ground.

Shell builds are ideal for clients who want the structure professionally built while completing interior finishes on their own timeline. We handle the critical structural components - including foundation, framing, exterior, and roofing - delivering a solid, weather-tight build ready for customization.

This option is often used for barndominiums, workshops, or owner-finished homes. Final scope and pricing are determined during the planning phase based on the selected plan, project size, and site conditions.
