Designing Your Dream Home: How Home Front Build Can Make This Come To Life
Designing your dream home isn’t just about picking the right tile or finally getting that kitchen island you’ve been saving on Pinterest. It’s about aligning vision with values and creating a space that feels as good as it looks. One that evolves with you, holds your stories, and strengthens your daily rituals. At Home Front Build, we believe the most successful homes are a perfect marriage of history and modernity, craft and comfort.
Built on Experience, Rooted in Legacy
With decades of architectural preservation, luxury remodeling, and thorough planning and construction in Los Angeles, our team doesn’t just design homes we bring them back to life. From Spanish Revival to Craftsman to Mid-Century, we understand how to honor a home’s bones while enhancing it for contemporary living.
Our founder, artisans, architects, and interior designers work side by side. No silos. No hand-offs. Just one fully aligned team, all under one roof, with a deep respect for the legacy of every home we touch.
Why Clients Choose Us (and Stay With Us)
We don’t offer cookie-cutter solutions. Instead, we ask questions that matter: How do you want your home to feel? What do your mornings look like? Who gathers in your kitchen on weekends?
This emotional and personal approach lets us build not just for beauty, but for belonging. Our process is both structured and deeply human.
Architectural Design Meets Construction Mastery
Unlike other firms, Home Front Build offers a complete in house experience: Licensed architects who specialize in historically rooted yet future-ready designs. Interior designers who personalize every finish to your family’s needs. We are master builders who understand materials, craftsmanship, and the integrity of timelines.
Home Front Build blends architectural expertise, design thinking, construction know-how, and artisan-level execution under one roof.
We combine the roles of architect, designer, engineer, builder, and artisan. Someone deeply involved in every stage of a construction project from concept to completion.
Here’s how Home Front Build’s master builder approach stands apart from conventional methods:
Cohesive Design & Construction: We oversee the entire process from ideation, design, and permits, to material selection, construction, and final finishes. We lead with a design-build philosophy, streamlining collaboration between architects, designers, and builders from day one.
Depth of Knowledge: As master builders we understand both design theory and construction realities. We know how a wall should look and how it should be built. With decades of experience in historic renovations and modern custom builds, our team ensures clarity, communication, and excellence every step of the way.
Design-Forward Thinking: We don’t sacrifice aesthetics for efficiency, we harmonize beauty, function, and longevity. With decades of experience in historic renovations and modern custom builds, our team ensures clarity, communication, and excellence every step of the way.
Detail-Driven Craftsmanship: Our work is usually more timeless and detailed. We honor building traditions while incorporating modern needs. Every corner, every material, and every line is selected with intention- prioritizing beauty, sustainability, and function.
Client-Centered Visioning: As master builders we are known for advocating for the client’s long-term interest. We don’t cut corners and we design homes that evolve with families. We don’t just hear your ideas; we translate them into spaces that tell your story and meet future needs.
By contrast, many general contractors typically enter the process after the design phase, managing construction based on existing plans from a designer or architect and often with limited input on how those plans could evolve for better performance, efficiency, or aesthetics.
Project-Only Scope: Typically step in after design is complete. Execution-focused rather than vision-driven.
Limited Design Input: May offer feedback but don’t lead design strategy.
Efficiency-Focused: Prioritize timelines and budgets, but sometimes at the expense of aesthetics or long-term quality.
Vendor Dependent: They often rely heavily on subcontractors and may not have strong control over design integrity.
Transactional Relationships: Work can feel more like project fulfillment than collaborative creation.
At Home Front Build, our fully integrated design-build approach ensures your dream remodel, new build, or addition never gets lost in translation. From first sketch to final structure, every idea is carried through with consistency, collaboration, and care.
The Power of Intuitive Design: How Home Front Build Creates Emotionally Attuned Spaces
Design affects how we feel, think, and live. At Home Front Build, we blend intuitive space planning with wellness-forward materials like low-VOC paints, FSC-certified woods, and formaldehyde-free insulation and integrate biophilic design principles that reconnect you to nature and yourself.
We believe:
Light should lift your mood. That’s why we prioritize natural daylight, layered lighting, and energy-efficient window placements that bring warmth and clarity to your mornings and calm to your evenings.
Circulation should support your rhythm. Our layouts eliminate awkward bottlenecks and support how you truly live from the morning coffee ritual to the weekend dinner flow.
Air and material quality should improve your health. We use breathable plasters, smart ventilation, all-electric systems, and sustainably sourced finishes that reduce allergens, toxins, and indoor pollutants.
This isn’t just luxury. It’s life-enhancing design. Whether you're planning a healthy home remodel, a luxury home addition, or building your dream home from the ground up, Home Front Build ensures every detail supports your emotional and physical wellness because we believe your home should heal, not harm.
