They may look like traditionally built homes now, but behind those finished walls is something very different.
Both the main house and ADU were built using Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF)—concrete walls surrounded by continuous insulation to create a strong, energy-efficient home.
If you’re investing the money to build a custom home from the ground up, we think it’s worth understanding what you’re actually building it with.
We documented this entire multigenerational compound from the ground up, so we’re taking you back to the beginning to show you how we built it, why we certain decisions were made and what ICF construction actually looks like before all the pretty finishes cover it up.
Follow along. The finished houses are beautiful—but what’s behind the walls is the part we really want to show you.😉
