Site Determination & Preliminary Budget

Site: Your home should be unique to your lifestyle and your building site; the topography, views, and natural highlights of your property will likely influence the shape and flow of your home.

Budget: A successful home plan begins with the determination of three primary factors: Size and Complexity, Quality, and Cost. As you are gathering ideas for your home you will also want to prioritize your values for your new home and establish a budget that reflects those values.

Design

Most of our homes are custom designs which often require more time and attention to personal detail. Blue Ox Timber Frames will work closely with your designer or you may choose to utilize the award-winning design firm we have teamed up with to help you express your visions and encourage new ideas.

We recommend that, while you gather ideas for your new home, you look through timber frame and home design magazines and books. Highlight photos and floor plans that you may want to incorporate into your own home. The little things are often what make a house a home and should not be overlooked.
