custom home journey


your home should be a reflection of your success.

 

You’ve spent years of your life pushing yourself to be the best at what you do.  Whether you spent long nights and weekends studying at a university and working your way up through the ranks of a company to get to where you are today, or you opened your own business straight out of high school, your achievements in life are a reflection of your hard work and dedication.  When the going got tough, you got going.  And look where that led you.  The hard work never stops, but now that you’ve accomplished so much, isn’t it time that you rewarded yourself?  Designing and building a custom home is something very few people do in their lifetime, not because they don’t want to, but because it requires a level of personal triumph and realization that is rarely achieved.

 

will you let your dream home forever remain a dream?

 

Designing and building your own custom home is a lot like writing a book.  Most people have the desire to do it, but very few people follow through with it.  The reason most people never build a custom home is similar to the reason most people never write a book; it is a process that can take years to finish, and most people don’t know where to start.  Fortunately for you, though, you’ve already taken the first step towards your dream home simply by visiting our website.  We are in the business of helping you turn your dream of owning a custom home into a reality.  

 

 

we guide the design process to create a home that reflects you.

Maybe you want your home to be your sanctuary; a private retreat where you can escape from the noise of the world and focus on your personal well-being.  Or maybe your dream home is a social hub where you’ll enjoy entertaining friends and family.  Or maybe you see yourself living in a home that will be the envy of all your neighbors, highlighted in architectural magazines and the object of praise from friends and strangers alike.  Whatever you desire your home to be, we will make it happen.  Our process is specifically designed to tailor your home to your unique needs and wants, so that when you move in, you’re not moving into a cookie-cutter home that could have been designed for anyone, you’re moving into a home that could have only been designed for you.

 

 

Why homeowners trust us as their guide.

Homeowners like yourself trust us over other architects because we excel in three things: creativity, communication, and construction savvy. 

Creativity

The custom home design process, in order to be truly custom, requires a team of uniquely creative individuals.  We intentionally design a select few custom homes each year because, unlike many architectural firms, our focus is on making each home as unique as the people who will live in them, and doing that takes time and effort that cannot be given if we are chasing a high volume of projects.  When you work with us, you are working with a team that thinks outside of the box and pushes the boundaries of design. 

Communication

Designing a custom home is a process that requires an immense amount of coordination between the architect, the homeowner, the general contractor, the interior designer, and the engineers.  Communication is key to creating a seamless process.  While other architects take weeks to return a phone call or reply to an email, we pride ourselves not only on our responsiveness, but also on our proactiveness.  Our goal is for our homeowners to never have to ask us where we are in the process or what the next steps are, because we make it a priority to keep you informed and up to date every step of the way.

Construction Savvy

Our owner and Principal Architect, Matthew Giardina, has over nine year’s of experience building high end custom homes.  Three of those years were spent working for a design/build firm located in the Rice Village area of Houston, and six years were spent owning and operating a home building company.   In 2023 Matthew decided to shift his focus away from construction and spend his time exclusively on design instead, but the lessons he learned throughout his time as a builder directly impact the quality of architecture our team produces.  Unlike architects who spend all their time drafting and never get to see how the things they’re drawing are actually built, we use the construction knowledge we have to inform the design decisions we make, resulting in greater constructability, increased building performance, and reduced construction costs.
