Building your custom home can be a challenging and complex process. There are many decisions to be made and a lot of coordination between various parties involved in the construction process. However, if you approach this process with a collaborative mindset and work closely with your builder and architect, you can achieve a successful outcome.
The perfect triangle in home building involves a close working relationship between the builder, client, and architect. Each party has a specific role to play, and it is essential that all three work together in harmony to bring your dream home to life.
1. Architect's Role

The Architect's role is to design a functional & aesthetically pleasing home that meets your needs and desires. They are the designers, the creatives and the visionaries. Your Architect can help you create a space that’s practical and comfortable, stylish and unique, and adaptable to your changing needs. They will take into consideration sustainability, unique features and many other important factors to ensure that your dream home is not only beautiful but also functional and energy efficient.
2. Builder's Role
Choosing a builder to work with is one of the most important decisions you'll make when building your dream home. Not only do you want a builder who is experienced & qualified, but one you can trust. A good relationship with your builder is key to a smooth build process and overall satisfaction with your home.
Your Builder's role is to bring a practical approach to your project. They can work directly with you and your Architect to ensure that the design is feasible and can be executed with your budget in mind. Your builder can offer knowledge & insights into the construction process and suggest practical approaches that can achieve cost effective solutions.
3. Client's Role
When you’re building your dream home, you will often have a very clear vision of what you want the spaces to look and feel like. You know how you and your family live, and how this will evolve over time with a growing family, children becoming teenagers, retirement etc...
Your role as the client is to effectively communicate your desires, wants, needs, and most importantly... budget with both your Architect and your Builder. The more open the communication lines are, the smoother the process will be.
The Perfect Triangle
When all three work together (client, architect, builder), especially from the start of the project… the perfect triangle is created.
We believe it's essential to involve your builder from the beginning of the design process. This collaboration ensures that your project is completed on time, within budget and exceeds your expectations.
Effective communication within this triangle is pivotal to bring your dream home to life.
