Towne Craft Design Process

The design process for a custom luxury home is all about you – not the builder. You have worked hard and deserve the best in custom homebuilding skills and expertise.

Towne Craft is ready to guide you regardless of where you are in creating your southern Maryland jewel box: you may have ideas on a napkin, you may have purchased a luxury home construction plan online or you may be working with an architect. We have the design resources to pick up wherever you are in this exciting phase of your life.

Retail Homebuying vs. Custom Designing

If the process starts with a standard plan no matter how many options are available, it is not a custom home.

Retail home building begins with the packaging and marketing of a predetermined product on a predetermined lot with predetermined specifications and incentives.

Custom homebuilding is more discerning. The process begins with the question “What do you have in mind?” and expands from that point. The aproaches to the process can vary substantially.

  • Have you already purchased your lot?
  • Have you already selected an architect to create a final set of architectural plans for your luxury home?
  • Have you purchased a custom home plan online and you want a qualified builder to help you modify the plan and construct your own architectural masterpiece?

  • Do you need an experienced homebuilder to provide a full range of services from lot selection, plan development, home construction, to landscape planning and installation?

We will help you sort out the following homebuilding cost factors.
