Construction Help

Design at the heart

Method thrives in that space between imagination and reality. We know how to design from a place of deep consideration, and we know how to manage constructability issues at the tip of a pencil. Let’s dream big, but let’s make sure it can be done at the same time. 

 
 
 

Bring us alongside from the beginning of your dream and we can help shape and articulate that vision from the first step, with an artist's eye and a lifetime of building experience. 

 

Deeply understanding the emotional nature of a project for clients and the technical needs of the builders, we can stand in the breach, calmly communicating your desires to the builders and making sure they are always moving in the right direction. Doing this well requires takes a deep care for people, asking curious questions first, keeping an eye towards making things happen, and keeping the project moving.

It is our delight to come alongside you as a guide in this endeavor. With 39 years of high-end homebuilding in our repertoire, we've seen it all. We know the processes, the trades, the language, the materials, everything that goes into bringing a project home successfully.

We can be your advocate and the custodian of your "big picture vision" communicating it to the builders and making sure they get it too. We speak construction, from ridge height to trim nails. We know what to say and how to  get the character of an idea across to the people who just want to know where to put what.

 

Construction Consulting & Intercession

Home construction projects are extremely complicated and technical but at the same time so personal. They take money, time, effort, and the end result is where you will live your life, so the results are high stakes. Miscommunications, mistakes, delays, aren't just changes on a ledger sheet, but they affect our lives deeply and emotions can run high.
