The #1 Reason A Custom Home Project Fails:
Pre-Planning Gets Skipped
Our Project Kickstarter saves you from budget surprises, permit landmines, carrying costs, and epic amounts of unnecessary stress.
Don’t Become A Statistic. Become A Success Story
Over 90% of custom home builds FAIL due to budget overruns or unbuildable designs. At that point, homeowners throw in the towel, eat their sunk costs, and wonder how this could have all been avoided. Our Project Kickstarter is a holistic assessment of your wish-list, lifestyle, site, constraints, and more. With all this in hand, we’ll know exactly what gets built, how much it might cost, and how fast you can get to open the front door for the first time!

Preparing Your Custom Mountain Home. My Family’s Passion For Generations
Dear Future Homeowner,
I am so glad you’re here. In a world where plug-n-play and two-day delivey get most people into trouble with plans “off-the-shelf,” there is 100% a better way.
My name’s Brian Reeves, Founder and Lead Architect of Enduring Design Architecture and third-generation mountain architect.
My grandfather built a mountain home that is still the gathering place for our family. So many memories of holidays and summers and celebrations exist in that place. They are all ours. They are all special. They all endure.
If being immersed in a living space built from the environment that surrounds it, we’re about to have a great conversation and I look forward to meeting you!

We Build Homes Inspired By…
Your Life Isn’t Cookie-Cutter. Your Home Shouldn’t Be Either.
In a world of cheap, mass-produced template homes, you deserve to have something truley your own. Something that can’t be coped. Something that represents who you are. Something that helps unlock the potential of everything still left to achieve.
As a third-generation mountain architect, I’ve lived the experience of enjoying a sense of generational place and being. A connection to the land, family, and possiblility. Somewhere in the exposed timbers, cedar shingles, stone pathways, and cand-crafted details is something nobody else can have. That’s what’s in store for you.

Kind Words From Clients. Homes Built With Certainty.
Brian has been excellent to partner with. We appreciate his attention to detail, clear communication, and professionalism. A great sense of classical design as well as modern materials. Highly recommend.
Curtis R.
We used Brian to design a two-story addition on our 100+ year old home. He captured the style so it wouldn’t look like an afterthought. He took construction costs into account in his design. Wouldn’t hesitate to refer friends and family!
The Fremouws
Brian designed a new roof for an old cabin on our property and did a fantastic job. He kept the look of the old cabin but designed 4 gorgeous roof options for us to choose from. Highly recommend!

Designed For Life. And Built To Last Even Longer.
A craftsman home is the original eco-friendly home. Locally sourced materials. Locally manufactured hardware and finishings. A design that endures because it is made from the stuff that surrounds it, fills it, and supports it.
When we have our first few conversations, we start with this. We want to know where your existing site is. How the sun moves across it. What surrounds it. What’s within it. How you live and who will live there with you. All of these topics are important because there’s choreography that exists between what you want, and what your site allows. And this is exactly where our work supports you.
Don’t get stuck with designs that don’t work. You deserve to have a conversation with an architect who can translate your lifestyle and code compliance into a final result that will inspire your family for generations. The best way to ensure you actually get the keys to a home you love is with our proven Project Kickstarter.
Watch Your Design Come To Life
Our clients love how easy it is to see their homes come to life with 3D drawings and virtual walk-throughs. Materials, furnishings, light, and flow can be experienced first-hand without ever having to wonder what it will look like.
But before we even get there, there’s a conversation that happens. Where the first impression of your wants, your needs, and your site lend themselves to a hand drawing that becomes the starting block for everything that follows.
A hand-drawn sketch of your home’s design is where we start and while it’s a raw first impression of the final structure, it’s the start of believing in your design, and how it all comes together (it’s also not uncommon to see this keepsake framed and hanging by the fireplace)!
