Why you Should Hire a Design Build Firm?

A design build firm takes care of the design and construction of your project. Usually, when you are starting anew remodel or a build you would start with talking to a designer or architect and taking your plans to a contractor to build your home. With a design build firm, you get to work with an architect and builder that are already working together to build homes. There many reasons why you should consider working with a design build firm and here are the reasons why.

Hire a Design Build Firm

Teamwork

When you are working with a design build firm you are working with an architect and builder that are in business together already build multiple homes together. It can be difficult to navigate a home project when the designer and builder do not agree or communicate well. In the end, it will cause delays in the timeline. The goal is to have a team that already works well together to make sure your project stays on course and meets your design goals.

Staying on Budget

Working with a design build firm your architect and builder are working closely together from the beginning to avoid any setbacks during the build. Although you can’t predict what may happen during the build phase it will help if your builder is prepared and understands the vision of your designer. Anything to avoid slowing down the process of your project will help to avoid any extra costs.

Experience

When you’re looking to hire a professional for your project you want to make sure they know what they’re doing. Hiring an experienced professional will help leave you at ease with the process.

Visualize welcoming friends into a softly lit lounge where a 600-bottle, climate-controlled cellar glows behind ultra-clear glass. A single tap on your phone lowers the temperature two degrees, LED ribbons spotlight a 1990 Château Latour, and the conversation shifts from market headlines to terroir. That experience, part theater, part craftsmanship, part investment vault, is driving the latest boom in luxury home wine sanctuaries. In 2025, serious collectors no longer hide vintages in a dusty basement; they showcase them at the very heart of the estate, turning storage into social space. Recent design reports even call the modern wine cellar a “jewel box” for the ultra-affluent, thanks to glass enclosures, app-controlled thermostats, and gallery-style lighting. But what transforms a mere storage room into a sanctuary worthy of your first-growth Bordeaux? Let’s uncork the essentials, backed by real Fratantoni projects and the latest industry data.

Building a custom home should be an experience marked by excitement, creativity, and complete trust in the team guiding you through it. But as we’ve seen time and again, placing your dream in the wrong hands can lead to disappointment, delays, and costly mistakes. At Fratantoni Luxury Estates, we’ve earned a reputation for building exceptional homes for discerning families across the nation. Many of our clients come to us after working with firms that didn’t meet their standards—and they’re often relieved to find the level of service, detail, and sophistication they expected from the start. Before you commit to a design/build firm, watch for these five red flags that could derail your custom home experience and discover how we intentionally do things differently. 1. Vague Proposals and Unrealistic Estimates If a proposal lacks clarity, feels overly “cookie-cutter,” or seems too low for the level of finishes you expect, take pause. Bespoke homes require bespoke planning. At Fratantoni Luxury Estates, our proposals are precise, detailed, and tailored to the scale and style of your estate. You’ll know exactly what’s include and what to expect so there are no surprises down the road. 2. Disconnected Teams and Outsourced Design When architecture, design, and construction are handled by different firms, communication gaps are inevitable—and those gaps show up in your finished home. Our in-house team of architects, designers, and builders work seamlessly together, ensuring a unified vision and flawless execution. This full-service model is how we create homes with harmony, balance, and timeless design integrity.
