Ready to Get Started?Our Team
The Bensonwood Design Group (BDG) is built on the legacy of 50 years’ experience designing and building efficient timber frame homes. The team is comprised of experienced Architects and designers, and they benefit from having in-house resources including Master Timber Framers, accomplished Woodworkers and a team of Structural Engineers. Our innovative design team fosters a collaborative approach with clients, builders and consultants alike.
The Bensonwood Custom Process
EXPLORE
The BDG will begin with an extensive exploration of your site and programmatic desires. We use innovative software to evaluate and study potential design solutions.
DESIGN
Experience your Bensonwood Custom home in 3D before it ever hits the shop floor. The Design Group will walk you through potential options and communicate design decisions with high clarity. These 3D models also allow for early cost estimates.
build
After your design is finalized by the Bensonwood Design Group, it will be processed through engineering and virtual fabrication. Finally, it reaches our production facility where the home of your dreams is created in a panelized manner. These panels are then raised in a rapid fashion on your build site.
FINISH
After raising, your local builder will take the reins for on-site work. They will mobilize sub-contractors to complete the project, including mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and final finishes.
SUPPORT
As a Bensonwood Custom homeowner, you will receive continuous support from our design team throughout the construction process and beyond. Our team will consult with your local GC when needed and is available to work with you even after you’ve moved into your new home.
Our Ideology
Bensonwood strives to minimize our impact on the planet, as the most sustainable home is one that lasts generations. We thoughtfully vet and source the materials used in the production of our components and specify safe and healthy bio-based materials to support the wellbeing of our clients. We prioritize an all-electric home to free ourselves from dependency on fossil-fuels. Passive-solar design principals guide the design as we create spaces that are thoughtful in their proportion, form and scale.
Our Process
We lead you through a straight-forward design process that is rooted in understanding the goals for your project. Starting with an exploration of your site and programmatic desires, we evaluate and study the potential design solutions using innovative software. 3D walk-throughs and renderings allow us to communicate the design with clarity. Each custom design is distinctive as it is derived from the homeowner’s unique site and design parameters. We provide early and frequent cost estimates in conjunction with your GC to ensure that as the design evolves, it aligns with your budget goals. We exercise care ensuring that you feel heard, supported and informed as we endeavor through the design and build process.
