Custom Architectural Plans for New Homes and Remodels

Great homes start with great design. Whether building new, expanding your home, or reconfiguring your space, thoughtful architectural planning is key to a successful project. Oxland Builders provides custom architectural design services and collaborates with you to develop layouts that enhance the way you live down to every distinct detail.

Architectural Design FAQs

What is architectural design, and why do I need it?expand_more

Architectural design is the process of planning and creating the layout, structure, and details of your home before construction begins. It ensures the space works and looks great while meeting building codes and structural requirements. Whether building a new home or making major changes to your existing space, proper design planning prevents costly mistakes and ensures a smooth construction process.

What’s the difference between architectural design and interior design?expand_more

Architectural design focuses on the structure and layout of your home, including space planning, structural elements, and building flow. Interior design, while equally important, focuses on finishes, furnishings, and aesthetics. During our design-build services, we integrate both aspects to create a well-designed and beautifully-finished home.

Can you design a custom home from scratch?expand_more

Yes, we provide full architectural design services for custom homes. Our team works with you from the initial concept to detailed construction plans, ensuring that every aspect of the home is tailored to your style, needs, and long-term goals.

Do you work with engineers and other specialists?expand_more

Yes, depending on the project scope, we coordinate with structural engineers, surveyors, and other specialists to ensure that your design is safe and buildable. We manage these details so you don’t have to worry about handling multiple professionals on your own.

How involved will I be in the design process?expand_more

You’ll be involved in every key decision. Our team collaborates with you throughout the process, from initial sketches to finalized plans, ensuring that your input shapes the final design. We provide 3D renderings, material recommendations, and expert guidance to help you visualize the finished space.

3D Design for New Hampshire Homes

 

Imagine virtually walking around your home before construction begins. With our 3D design services, you can quickly and easily make changes to your home design. This allows you to get the home you want without adding on costly last-minute construction changes.

At Oxland Builders, we use Chief Architect® Architectural Home Design Software to show you exactly what your home will look like before you approve your final design. A leader in the industry, this software provides CAD details and 3D models for home, interior, and kitchen & bath design. This ensures your project is designed to your exact wants and needs. And because we design and draft your custom home or remodeling project in-house, you’ll save time and money.

Our 3D design services are available to all of our clients—whether you’re building a new home or remodeling your existing one.

What Our Clients Think

"We recently had to move our in-laws in with us and needed to build them a room. We met with Brad and he was able to quickly assemble a team to create a space that was suitable for them. I can’t thank Brad, Claudia and the whole Oxland Builders team for finishing this project in record time. They are thorough, punctual and super organized, and thanks to the Buildertred app, I knew when people would be working and when all invoices were due. I know I’ll be calling them again for a future project."

What Our Clients Think

"The team at Oxland was excellent, very friendly, and professional. Working mainly with Rob as our point of contact, he made the whole experience easy by listening to what we were looking for and offering several potential solutions and ideas. As we were adding a new built-in buffet-style cabinet to an existing kitchen, the team at Oxland did an amazing job of ensuring everything matched up perfectly. We couldn't be happier with the look and quality of our new cabinet, and would highly recommend Oxland to others looking to have work done to their home."

Kirsten Larsen Schultz

Coastal-style home with a covered porch and classic architectural details, built by Oxland Builders in New Hampshire

What Our Clients Think

"Brad is an absolute jem. My husband and I were relocating from Brooklyn, NY to Newfields, NH. I called Brad to take a look at an old house we were interested in purchasing to let us know if he felt it was solid and what type of work would need to be done to it. Without even meeting me (only speaking to me over the phone) he was more than willing to help us out. He was honest, professional, thorough and polite."
