  • Design-build eliminates the "he said, she said" and integrates the project delivery (IPD), saving everyone time, money, and frustration. Builders who learn to design and designers who learn to build or partner are more successful than those who go it alone.

    Design/Build Custom Luxury Homes in Scottsdale | Paradise Valley | Arizona 🏡 Architecture + Design + Construction + Renovation + Home Management 🏜️ Since 1986

    Here's what 38 years of luxury home building has taught me.. The space between design and construction is where dreams often fall apart. Why? Because "traditional" building separates some crucial elements: Architecture in one firm. Interior Design in another. Construction somewhere else entirely. That's why, since 1986, we've taken a different approach. We call it "Design-Build." It's all about bringing everything under one roof: 📋 Architecture, design, and construction expertise managed in-house 🤝 One team working together to avoid problems and avert delays ✨ One point of contact through the entire process The results speak for themselves: 25%-30% faster build times. No finger-pointing between teams. Clear communication at every step. "As a luxury Realtor and an occasional custom home project developer in Paradise Valley I'm very in tune with luxury custom home construction," Gary Todd says. "Calvis Wyant totally nailed every aspect of the design/build experience for Chris and Chuck. Buying a home at slab stage could have been full of problems with anyone else building it but not you guys. Everything was spec'd down to the part numbers for the towel bars. I love selling CW homes." I love that quote from Gary, because it’s a great example of what happens when everyone works together from the start. You don't just build a better home. You create a better experience.

  • What is Virtual Design & Construction (VDC)? We are excited to share insights on Virtual Design & Construction (VDC)! 🏗️ VDC, pioneered by Rubysketch, optimizes project planning and execution through digital simulations before real-world implementation. This process boosts collaboration and decision-making in construction projects. Key benefits of VDC include improved job costing, enhanced problem-solving capabilities, increased safety measures, sustainable practices, and effective risk management. By enabling teams to foresee and optimize potential issues, VDC elevates construction processes. Utilizing advanced tools like PlusDesignBuild and PlusArchitect, which are 3D modelling CAD and BIM tools, VDC models are created to provide detailed digital twins. These tools automate Sketchup and facilitate seamless stakeholder communication. Applicable to projects of all sizes, from small residential homes to large commercial endeavors, VDC is versatile across traditional, lean construction, and prefabrication methods. For those eager to learn, PlusDesignBuild and PlusArchitect offer built-in training videos in every tool, ensuring a smooth learning curve. Additionally, personalized training sessions and resources like the PlusSpec YouTube Channel are available. Embracing Building Information Modelling & Virtual Construction isn't just beneficial for designers and builders; subcontractors and estimators also stand to gain significantly from adopting these innovative practices. Let's enhance collaboration, streamline decision-making, and elevate construction projects with VDC! 🚀 #VDC #ConstructionTechnology #BIM #Innovation

    Everyone loves Sketchup, however many designers use other programs to produce construction documentation. Here is a project created and documented 100% inside Sketchup Pro using the PlusDesignBuild extension. The project was designed and delivered by Ian Veroni. Ian was originally a Revit guy until he came across PlusSpec Community at the #Bimdayout in Western Australia. PlusDesignBuild organizes SketchUp so you can concentrate on the task at hand.

  • This makes drawing walls a lot easier and more accurate.

    Learn 5 Sketchup tips that most people don't know about using guidelines. Andrew Dwight's tutorial video shows how to associate colours with guidelines and stay organized in SketchUp and PlusDesignBuild.

    Colour makes drawing & defining wall guides & line types easier + reduces Sketchup/PlusSpec chaos.
