Architectural Design Services
Building a custom home is truly unique because it’s a home that has never been built before. This requires home plans to be drawn up and vetted for feasibility. Our in-house design team offers this service.
There are many inherent challenges with building a custom home, the most common being missed expectations, change orders and schedule delays. Without the right process, building a custom home can be truly frustrating. The Falcon Framework 6 Step Process has been developed and time-tested to address and avoid these common pitfalls.
The key is effectively bridging what we call “The Big Three:”
- Your Lot Selection
- Home Design
- Budget
Without dovetailing these three key components from the outset, a disappointing build experience is nearly guaranteed.
In our experience, the budget is the most difficult to communicate with regards to a custom home design, and therefore is often glossed over by traditional architects or designers. Not because they don’t care, but simply because they aren’t intimately familiar with the costs of construction. And who knows costs better than the builder? With Falcon being both the designer and builder, we are able to offer invaluable guidance from the start, giving you the critical information you need to make informed decisions. Frequently Asked Questions like:
- Is building a custom home the best decision for me?
- Will this home design fit my budget?
- Will this particular lot accommodate my needs?
- What is the cost difference between these 3 options?
- I love this look. How much does this add to my build costs?
- If I want to move in by next Thanksgiving, what needs to happen by when?
We might not be able tell you what you WANT to hear, but we will tell you what we believe to be true, a Core Value at Falcon Alaska.
