Fully integrated design process
Pre-Purchase Evaluation
Before you place an offer we will work with you to evaluate the property, local zoning codes, exposure, access, set backs, HOA rules, and provide pre purchase evaluation based on your intended use. This is an important step in the process that can restrict your home if you do not do the research before your purchase. Many sites have HOA governing what can and can't be done, some county restrict water use and designate for only domestic use. Better to spend the time up front to secure the correct property.
Design Development and Construction Details
Each project is developed directly with our client, and as your home takes form we develop site specific details that will provide a high performance home. We look at local history for design features, and learn what makes up the existing fabric of the environment. We currently are in the process of developing a Net Zero home that will provide all of its own water and power, and reusing all wastewater 3 times.
Partners in the Process
We look for partners who support our processes and understand the value we are building into our homes. We strive to provide a high performance home that is environmentally balance.In the high elevations of Colorado we use a SIPS panel construction process that reduces waste on site, and provides R values far above what a stick built home can achieve for the price per square foot. For our SIPS partners we selected Extreme Panel Technologies www.extremepanel.com
For our Timber Frame projects we have partnered with Colorado Timber Frame www.coloradotimberframe.com
