Heartwood House Co
Heartwood House is a residential design studio dedicated to creating homes that feel personal, intentional, and beautifully lived-in. We specialize in custom home design and renovations, offering detailed 3D renderings that help families visualize every corner before construction begins. Our team works closely with clients to understand how they live today—and how their home can grow with them tomorrow. In addition to design services, we craft custom metal décor and decorative vent covers that bring both style and function to everyday spaces. Whether it’s a full home plan or a small detail that makes a room shine, Heartwood House is here to help you love where you live.
Most design studios take every project. We don’t.
We take on a small number of homes each year, giving each project our full attention from the first sketch to the final sheet.
That level of detail only works when the project can carry it.
A new custom home or a substantial renovation, built at $1M and above
You want to see the house in 3D before anyone pours concrete
You'd rather solve problems on paper than in the field
You want one person accountable for the whole set

Our Process
1
We start by sitting down to hear your ideas and understand the scope of your project. This collaborative session allows us to review our portfolio together, answer your questions, and ensure we are the right fit. The goal is to gather the necessary information to build a clear and accurate proposal for your home.
THE INITIAL MEETING
2
Once the proposal is accepted, we move into the details with a comprehensive 1–2 hour strategy session. We review your full inspiration and analyze the building site to finalize the creative vision. By learning how your family functions daily—and clearly defining your "must-haves" versus "nice-to-haves"—we ensure the design direction is grounded in the reality of your lifestyle.
PROJECT KICKOFF
3
In this stage, we will show you the initial concept of your floor plans and 3D model. We use your feedback to refine the elevations and layout, making the necessary revisions to finalize the home's features. It is a collaborative effort to ensure the architectural details and flow are exactly right before we finalize the construction-ready plans.
DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
4
In this final stage, we deliver your completed, construction-ready plans. These detailed blueprints and technical drawings provide your builder with everything they need to secure permits and begin construction. With the design finalized, you are ready to hand the plans to your contractor and get the build started.
FINAL PLAN DELIVERY
“We had the opportunity to work with Mike Brown on the design of our home and were so happy with everything. We were a little weary of designing/building a custom home because of what we heard from other people who did not have a great experience but we have nothing but great things to say and we recommend Mike and your team to everyone we know! He was very quick to respond, personable and available to answer any and all questions that we had, and our design turned out even better than we imagined it! We are so happy and so grateful with how it all turned out!”
