Building Your Dream: Our Process, Your Vision
The 5 Simple Steps to Your Dream Home
STEP ONE: “Let’s Talk.”™ This is a listening and idea session to establish the scope and estimated budget range for your project. Your space needs, design preferences, and personal details are all identified.
STEP TWO: “Storyboard Process,”™ This step is when your design team is selected and ideas are transformed into a preliminary schematic floor plan. Your estimated budget range is revised to reflect the accepted plan and a chart of allowances is created for the selection process that follows. Specific code or structural issues will be assessed and resolved at this stage.
STEP THREE: “Rendering to Scale,”™ is where selections and specifications are finalized to complete the bid process. A full set of construction plans are created to maximize design, innovation, and value engineering to meet your budget. Upon completion, a final construction agreement is presented for your approval.
STEP FOUR: “The Big Event,”™ is when the Showcase Builders construction team transforms your plans into reality. Your plans are built to specifications.
STEP FIVE: “Happily Ever After.”™ Your project has been completed, on time, on budget, and Showcase Builders has earned your 5-Star review.
Our process, “The 5 Simple Steps” allows you to describe what you want, the design team draws it, you approve it, and builds it.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is considered design-build?
Design build refers to a project delivery method in which one entity, the design build team, works under a single contract with the project owner to provide design and construction services. This one-stop-shop approach aims for a unified workflow from initial concept through completion.
What is design-build vs spec build?
Design build focuses on creating a custom home based on the client's specific desires and requirements, with a unified team responsible for both design and construction. Spec build, or speculative build, involves constructing a home without a specific buyer in mind, often using standard plans and market trends to guide design and construction decisions.
What is the design-build method process?
The design build process integrates design and construction phases, typically involving steps like initial consultation, design phase, construction documentation, bidding, and construction. This method emphasizes collaboration and efficiency, often leading to faster completion times and cost savings.
What does "builds" mean in design?
In the context of design build, "builds" refers to the construction aspect of the project, where the designs are brought to life. It encompasses all activities from laying the foundation to the final touches, ensuring the physical realization of the design plans.
What is the difference between an architect and design build firm?
An architect focuses on the design aspect, creating the blueprints and detailed plans for a project. A design build firm, however, offers both design and construction services under one roof, providing a streamlined approach to building custom homes.
