How we build a new home.
A custom home takes thousands of decisions, from the lot and the floor plan down to the hinges on the closet doors. The usual way splits those decisions between an architect, a builder and a dozen suppliers, and you end up paying for every mix-up between them.
We keep it with one team. That covers architecture and interior design, engineering, city permits, ground-up construction and the millwork package (kitchen, closets, doors and built-ins), which we plan with the house and build in our own shop. We do tear-down rebuilds on lots our clients already own and new construction on land they've just bought. Your project manager sends you a written update every week, from the first drawings to the final walkthrough.

What we build
New homes we build.
Tear-down & rebuild
For when the lot is right but the house isn't. We handle demolition, plans and a new home on land you already own. In established neighborhoods this is often the best value.
Family custom homes
Homes planned around how your family actually lives, instead of a builder's standard plan with your name on it.
Hillside & view lots
Sites that need real engineering for grading and retaining walls, with a design that works with the slope and the view.
Fire rebuilds
Rebuilds after the 2025 fires, documented to the city's rules and carried by our team from design through final inspection.

Cost
What a custom home costs in Los Angeles.
We quote custom homes per project after a feasibility review. The price is fixed in writing before we start.
Get a price range for your project.
Every project is different, so we don't use a price list. Tell us about yours and we'll give you a range that fits your home. It's free and takes about two minutes.
- A realistic range for your specific scope
- What will move your number up or down
- A first range from your answers, before any visit
What drives the cost.
- The lot itselfA flat infill lot and a hillside lot are different jobs before any walls go up. Grading, retaining walls, soils and access set the starting cost.
- Size & complexity of formSimple shapes are efficient to build. Cantilevers, curves and glass walls need extra engineering and cost more.
- Finish & millwork levelThe same floor plan can be built at very different finish levels. With millwork from our own shop, we can adjust that level to fit the budget.
- Systems & performanceHVAC zoning, solar and battery readiness, smart home systems and insulation. It's cheapest to decide these during design.
- TimelineGround-up homes usually take twelve to twenty-four months. A realistic schedule protects the quality of the work.

“We hired this team to convert part of our garage into a laundry area, a guest bathroom, and a shower. They did an amazing job! The tile work, wood accent walls, and vanity turned out great. The guys worked very clean and neat, kept the place tidy every day, and finished everything on time. Highly recommend them!”
