History
Our business began in the Seattle area after we completed degrees in finance and economics. We choose to work in the residential market due to our interest in home restoration and backgrounds in wood crafts and running small businesses. Traveling and working in various international markets allowed us to develop a full appreciation of architecture and various building practices. These practices continue to change as we continue to educate ourselves, building technologies change, and market demands develop into fields such as green building and energy certifications. It is a never ending process that continues to intrigue us and allows us to offer more to our clients.
Specialties
We specialize in remodels (60% of business) and new construction. Our remodeling projects range from restoration of some of Queen Anne and Capitol Hill's premier 19th century homes to some of the regions most contemporary homes. In new construction we lead in green building by being able to build everything from zero energy homes to homes with various green elements from building materials to energy efficient design as our clients desire. We are able incorporate green and archiitectually complex elements into new homes through our automated building systems where we use computer technologies to design and cut the homes. This allows us to cut complex designs and erect homes quickly. But our main specialty is communication. Residential projects involve numerous decisions whether it is a typical bathroom remodel or a custom home. We feel we excel here because we make sure we understand our client's vision allowing us to set realistic time lines, budgets, and expectations.
