Full Home Construction: A Modern Build with Timeless Appeal in Columbus, OH

Project Overview

The client wanted a custom-built home that merged minimalistic architecture with natural elements. The lot was an empty canvas, allowing our design and construction teams to create a layout that emphasized space, light, and flow.

The result: a 3,200 sq. ft., two-story home with 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, an open-plan living area, and a fully finished basement.

Key Features of the Build

• Open-Concept Floor Plan: Designed for modern living with a seamless transition between kitchen, dining, and living areas—ideal for family life and entertaining.

• Energy-Efficient Construction: Installed double-pane low-E windows, spray foam insulation, and high-efficiency HVAC systems to reduce utility costs and carbon footprint.

• Exterior Finishes: Combined fiber cement siding with natural stone accents and a covered porch, adding both curb appeal and durability.

• Custom Kitchen & Bath Build-Outs: Integrated luxury kitchen and spa-like bathrooms during construction to match the home's modern architectural language.

• Smart Home Integration: Wired the entire home for smart lighting, security, and climate control, controlled via a central home automation system.

• Garage & Mudroom Design: Created a spacious two-car garage with an attached mudroom featuring built-in lockers and a pet wash station.
