FOUR WAYS TO DESIGN YOUR HOME
Choose the option that fits your needs
1. Site Specific Home Designs are available from Bast & Rood Architects. Buy a finished design from Bast & Rood Architects. Rob and Mac have created several designs to choose from. This will be your most affordable option. You will choose your kitchen interior and some finishes.
2. Customize a design from Bast & Rood Architects. Have something in mind that is not included in any existing design? We can figure out how to include it, still within the house size and your budget. A fee will apply depending on the scope of changes.
3. Commission a custom design (within the permitted footprint and size) by Bast & Rood Architects. Bast & Rood will charge 6% of the construction cost.
4. Hire your own architect for a custom design (within the permitted footprint and size). The cost for this option would be negotiated between you and your architect
