Building in Johnston

Design with a pedigree.

Johnston, on the northwest side of the metro, has design history of its own: the Paul J. and Ida Trier House, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, stands here. It is also home to Camp Dodge and to the headquarters of Pioneer, with Saylorville Lake and Jester Park just to the north.

We design for that kind of setting, from wooded lots to wide views. Our own design team draws every home in-house, and we refine the design with you through each revision. Then we build it for one fixed price, not cost-plus, covering design, permits, site work, the house, finishes, landscaping and pools.

The house

The Trier House is one of the Frank Lloyd Wright homes in Iowa, and a reminder that great design ages well.

The water

Saylorville Lake and Jester Park sit just north of town, with acreage settings nearby.

The studio

Johnston borders Urbandale, so our studio is minutes away for every design meeting and selection.

Every home is different. Timing depends on your design, your lot and the size of the home, and larger homes take longer. We talk it through with you at your first visit.
