Custom home design is the process of creating a unique house that is tailored to an individual's specific preferences and needs. It involves collaboration with a designer and focuses on personalized layouts, materials, and features. This approach allows for a home that reflects the homeowner's lifestyle and taste, providing flexibility in design to prioritize what matters most to them.

High-performance and passive house designs prioritize energy efficiency and comfort. High-performance homes use high-quality materials, advanced construction techniques, and efficient heating/cooling systems to reduce energy consumption and environmental impact. Passive houses take this a step further, maintaining a comfortable temperature year-round with minimal energy use by utilizing natural heating/cooling sources and being extremely well-insulated.

Architectural rendering is creating realistic images or models of a building before it's built. It helps visualize the design, showcasing details like layout, materials, and textures. This tool is essential in custom home design for previewing and refining a project before construction, ensuring the final outcome aligns with expectations.

Addition and renovation design involves updating or expanding existing structures to meet new requirements or preferences. This process tailors spaces to current needs without building anew, focusing on enhancing functionality, aesthetics, and value. It can range from minor updates to major expansions, integrating seamlessly with the original design while introducing modern conveniences and styles.
