Design
Let’s design your
beautiful new home.
No one wants to live in an unattractive home that was built for someone else. You want a custom home designed to fit your unique needs and your individual tastes. In order to have the custom home of your dreams you need someone who understands your style and knows how to make it happen. At Whitten, we provide experienced guidance and suggestions to help you through the process so you can have the home you love.

We work with the architects at Architectural Design to provide a large selection of beautifully designed and thoughtfully detailed house plans.
We’ll help you figure out the details.
The problem is, when it comes to building a home, there are literally hundreds of details to figure out. With so many options to choose from, it can be hard to know where to start. The design process can feel totally overwhelming!
We get it! That’s why at Whitten Homebuilders we guide you through the design process so you can enjoy finding the colors, styles, and textures you love without the stress.
Step 1
Identify Your Goals
The first step to having a beautiful new home is to slow down and plan. It’s exciting to dream, but taking time to really think about your goals and needs will ensure you love your new home. Once we identify your wants, needs, and desires, we can select a floor plan that fits your lifestyle.
- Do you work from home?
- Do you have kids?
- Is your family growing?
- Do you like to entertain?
Step 2
Location & Plans
The location of your home is as important as any other decision. The site will have an impact on your homes design, placement, views, landscaping, etc. We can also assist you in locating the perfect home site based on key factors such as desired location, home size, property size, price point and school district. As you work through the financial feasibility, you will be able to start identifying sites for your new home.
- Do you want land?
- Do you want a large yard?
- Do you like trees or open space?
- Do you prefer a neighborhood?

Everything Customized
for You
You’ll love living in a home that was designed, built, and finished just for you. No more compromising and trying to fit into someone else’s house.
Step 3
Exterior Style
You want to have a home that you love seeing every time you pull in the driveway. A home that stops people in their tracks on the street to stare. One of the benefits of building a custom home is that you can design the exterior of your home to be just as awe-worthy as the interior. Things to consider when designing the exterior of your home are: materials, colors, price, maintenance, durability, as well as overall style.
Step 4
Interior Design & Finishes
You are never on your own during this process. We know that while exciting and fun, the selections process can sometimes be overwhelming without experienced help to guide you. Our team will work with you to cover all interior details. We will give guidance and make recommendations as you select interior materials, lighting, plumbing, hardware, glass, cabinetry, paint colors and so on.

Step 5
Landscape Design
Landscaping is more than just planting a few trees or shrubs in your front yard. It provides the finishing touch for your home’s exterior. When choosing plants, we consider overall size, leaf size, color, density, hardiness, and other factors to create a landscape that is beautiful and easy to maintain. We have experience with local plants and soils, and we can help you create a landscape that will enhance your new home.
