Building with Intention was created by @brittanychaversdesign
When we started building our custom home, I quickly realized something:
Nobody hands the homeowner a playbook.
You’re expected to make hundreds of decisions throughout the building process—sometimes before you even realize those decisions need to be made.
If you’ve ever thought:
“I want to build a home, but I don’t even know what I’m supposed to be asking.”
This guide was created for you.
Building With Intention is the home-building guide I wish someone had handed me before we ever broke ground.
It walks you through the building process from a homeowner’s perspective so you can better understand what’s coming, what needs to be decided early, what questions you should be asking, and how one decision can affect the next.
Because sometimes the decisions you don’t know to make early are the ones that become expensive—or difficult—to change later.
Building With Intention is an 82-page digital guide designed to help you:
• Understand the home-building process before you’re in the middle of it
• Know which decisions need to be made earlier than you may expect
• Ask better questions when meeting with your builder and trades
• Understand how appliances, cabinetry, electrical, plumbing, flooring, lighting and other selections connect
• Think through functionality before decisions become permanent
• Stay ahead instead of constantly feeling rushed
• Create a home that feels intentional, functional and timeless
This is not a construction manual.
And it isn’t simply an interior design book.
It’s a homeowner’s guide to understanding the decisions happening throughout your build so you can walk into the process feeling more prepared.
Building With Intention was created for:
• The homeowner preparing to build a custom home
• The homeowner who feels overwhelmed because they don’t know where to start
• The homeowner who knows what they like but doesn’t know what questions to ask
• The homeowner who wants to stay ahead of their builder instead of making rushed decisions
• Anyone who wants to avoid the “I wish we would’ve thought about that” moments later
• Prepare before breaking ground
• Think through your floor plan beyond how it looks on paper
• Plan electrical around how you’ll actually live in your home
• Understand how appliance selections can affect cabinetry
• Think through shower design, plumbing, and other decisions that may need to happen before the slab is poured
• Make cabinetry more functional
• Choose finishes that work together throughout your home
• Think through lighting, hardware, flooring and paint
• Know where it may make sense to splurge—and where you can save
• Make decisions in the right order so one choice doesn’t create problems for the next
You’ll have a much clearer picture of the building process.
You’ll know what questions to ask.
You’ll understand which decisions may need your attention sooner than you expected.
And instead of waiting for someone to tell you what comes next, you’ll be able to walk into your build feeling more informed, prepared and confident.
I created this because I remember exactly what it felt like to be the homeowner trying to figure all of this out.
This is the guide I wish I had before we broke ground.
