The article, by Founder and CEO James P. Adkins, offers valuable insights for homeowners and investors considering high-end custom home construction.

Titled “Planning a Luxury Residential Design Build Project,” the article covers crucial aspects of the luxury home building process, including:

Budgeting for Luxury


The article highlights that luxury home construction typically ranges from $200 to $600 per square foot, a significant increase from traditional custom builds. It advises readers to allocate 10% to 15% of the overall budget as a contingency fund for unforeseen expenses. The guide also emphasizes the importance of considering all costs, from permits and utility connections to high-end finishes and ongoing maintenance. It suggests strategies for cost management, such as direct material purchasing, without compromising on quality or aesthetic appeal.

Creating a Seamless Indoor-Outdoor Experience


The guide emphasizes integrating interior and exterior spaces to enhance functionality and aesthetic appeal. It suggests using compatible materials that transcend both environments and incorporating smart home technology to control both areas effortlessly. The article recommends considering large, sliding glass doors or bi-fold systems to open living spaces to the outdoors and using similar architectural details or color schemes across indoor and outdoor areas for a cohesive design. It also stresses the importance of strategic landscaping to complement and frame views from inside the home.

Navigating Approvals and Regulations

The article stresses the importance of understanding local zoning laws and restrictions, which can significantly impact what can be built. It also highlights the additional scrutiny often faced in elite communities or gated neighborhoods. The guide advises readers on submitting detailed plans to various municipal departments, including planning, building, and environmental agencies. It emphasizes the value of working closely with experienced design and construction teams to navigate these complex bureaucratic processes efficiently, potentially saving time and avoiding costly delays.
