The Building Process

Step 2: Define & Design

This phase transitions your Woodhouse project from concept to creation. Together with your RPM and design team, you'll confirm essential details, formalize agreements, and collaborate to refine your home’s design. Whether crafting a fully custom plan or modifying a predesigned option, this step brings your dream to life through detailed renderings and expert guidance. By the end, your vision will be finalized, and your project will be ready to move confidently into the construction phase.

After the initial consultations, it’s time to finalize the scope, timeline, and budget for your Woodhouse home. This step involves reviewing and confirming all key project details with your RPM, including the scale of the home, selected features, estimated costs, and projected completion timeline. At this stage, any adjustments can be made to ensure that all aspects align with your vision and financial plan, setting the stage for a well-defined and smooth design process ahead.

With a clear vision in place, the next step is to formalize the design phase through a Design Agreement. This agreement outlines the design process, details the scope of work, and secures the resources needed to move forward. The Design Agreement also marks the transition from concept to creation, as you begin to work more closely with the Woodhouse team to bring your ideas to life.

Custom Process
Work one-on-one with our design team to design a home entirely unique to your vision, customizing every element from layout to finishes.

Predesign Process
Start with a proven plan and modify it with our design team to suit your lifestyle, blending efficiency with personalized adjustments.

Once your agreement and design path are in place, you’ll meet with the Woodhouse architect and design team to begin shaping your home. Guided by a series of design interviews, this collaborative session allows you to discuss preferences, clarify your design objectives, and ensure that the team has a thorough understanding of your vision. These experts will guide you through options for layout, materials, and aesthetics, laying the foundation for a design that captures your dream home’s essence.

In the Design Phase, your Woodhouse home starts to take shape. Through a series of collaborative discussions and adjustments, the design team will refine your layout, floor plans, and architectural features. This phase ensures that each detail aligns with your vision, capturing the character and functionality of your future home.

2D and 3D Renderings with Fly-Throughs

2D and 3D Renderings with Fly-Throughs To bring your design to life visually, Woodhouse provides 2D and 3D renderings, along with immersive Fly-Throughs. These tools give you a comprehensive look at the layout, structure, and flow of your home. The fly-throughs allow you to explore spaces virtually, providing invaluable insight into the home’s feel and helping you make informed decisions on the final design.

Once your home design is finalized, you’ll enter into a Purchase Agreement. This agreement secures a manufacturing schedule and directs the design team to create full construction drawings. It includes the finalized specifications, materials, and costs, ensuring all parties are aligned and ready for the construction phase. With this agreement in place, the dream of your Woodhouse home is ready to move from design to reality.
