We’ve built a series of base architectural design products and a curated selection of options for customization. We want your HUTS home to benefit from our collective experience and adhere to the high standards we’ve developed. But it also has to reflect you, your needs, your taste, your lifestyle. And, in the end, it must match up well with those dreams you started out with.
We've developed - and continue to add to - a proprietary collection of home plans for studio, one, two and three-bedroom homes. Start with our plans, then modify the layout and finishes with our Studio team It's a fun, structured process that accelerates the move from concept to permit- and build-ready documentation.
Our Studio is a team of designers, construction managers, project managers, zoning and land use gurus, and specialized professional consultants. We create our designs and deliver on developments with a few key principles in mind.
Don’t get us wrong, we love design. But, we also care about housing, and housing that works for real people is equity-positive and, if rented, cash-flow positive. Our approach is designed to deliver homes that cost less to build than their worth and can rent for more each month than they cost to carry.
If you want to spend months selecting tile from the showroom, our approach may not be for you. We love collaboration, but we also believe in empowering our clients to make several big, meaningful design decisions that we can utilize to inform the many, many small choices that go into home design and development.
Good design isn’t just about aesthetics. We design for ease of construction and making more contractors successful HUTS builders. We design for value, making sure our homes set the market and banks, buyers and renters recognize it. And, we design for your lifestyle, so your home is the backdrop for your more perfect life.
Home design, development and construction is a team sport. And, it can go into extra innings. As much as HUTS streamlines the whole process from end-to-end, it takes some time and energy. We’d rather spend that time with good humored folks, whether they be clients, contractors, vendors or our own team.
Imagine several acres of land. It’s around the size of your dining table. Imagine a house. It’s about the size of a monopoly piece. Your property project is at least as much about designing for and working with the landscape as it is the interior space of your home. Let’s work with special qualities of your land parcel, not against them.
In 1965, the average square footage for each inhabitant on a new home was around 300. A house for 4 people? That’s a 1200 square foot house. Easy to heat, cool, maintain, and relatively inexpensive to build. Today? That number's almost 1000 SF per person. We’re out to roll back the clock on that trend.
