Sightlines, scale, natural light—the stuff that actually makes a house feel expensive aka solid architectural decisions all the way through.

this one raised the bar.

616 Ridge in the Heights—3,960 sqft designed from the ground up. the proportions, the flow, the way natural light moves through every level. this is what the architecture looks like when it’s done right.

Not every architect gets this lucky.

We designed this one for Akrum and the trim work alone says everything. You don’t usually see this level of detail on a spec home 😌

Designed to make the most of an infill lot.

We paired a front residence with a detached garage apartment behind it—maximizing privacy, flexibility, and long-term value on a single property.

Large windows and open living spaces keep the main home feeling bright and connected throughout.

We designed this top-down duplex with private entrances, great light, and layouts that don’t waste an inch.

Each unit: 3 beds, 2 full baths, thoughtful flow, and room to breathe 🧘

Architects see building differently.
That’s why we started Draft House Construction—the sister company to Draft House Design Studio.

Back in the day, “architect” used to mean master builder.
And we think it’s time to bring that idea back.

Because when the people who design your home are also the ones building it? Every detail hits different🤙🏻

Ben’s walking us through the “Treacherous Twins” 👯‍♂️ by .homes 👉🏻 a side-by-side duplex with 2 very different personalities…

One unit keeps things classic, the other goes bold with 24-ft ceilings, a kitchen loft, and dark cabinets we’re starting to see more of lately.

If you’re thinking about designing a duplex (or just want to snoop good layouts), this is one worth checking out.

One of our all-time favorite layouts—now officially sold.
This home was designed by and built by Houston’s Independence Heights. If you missed the reel of Ben walking through the space, scroll back to see why he called this one of the best layouts they’ve ever done😌

Already sold, but if you’re looking to design your own dream build or investment property, let’s talk.
