Initial Consultation

We start with a detailed consultation to discuss your goals, ideas, and lifestyle. Whether you’re looking for a cozy retreat or a modern family home, we’ll design a custom house that aligns with your vision.

Site Assessment

We evaluate the unique characteristics of your land—whether in Calgary, the surrounding areas, elsewhere in Alberta, or beyond. We’ll assess zoning laws, lot orientation, views, and site accessibility. Our team collaborates with Calgary custom home builders to ensure your custom home design plans meet all necessary regulations and conditions for a smooth process.

Conceptual Design

Our team of residential designers will design a fully tailored home that balances aesthetics, functionality, and practicality. We ensure your custom home design aligns with local regulations and your personal vision.

Collaboration with Builders

Once your custom home design is finalized, we work seamlessly with your chosen builder to ensure a smooth transition from design to construction. We collaborate with Calgary’s top builders and can provide recommendations to ensure you have the best home builder for your project.

“Brent and his team designed our beautiful house. We spent quite a bit of time going through the process and could not be happier. Brent was very thorough, talented, personable and helped us design the perfect house. Most importantly for us, he listened to what we wanted. We would highly recommend Ellergodt Design!”

FAQs About Custom Home Design

Do I need both a residential designer and a home builder?

Yes! While a custom home builder focuses on construction, our role as custom home designers is to create the design plans that guide the entire build. We’ll ensure your custom home design reflects your needs, complies with zoning laws, and is ready for construction by your builder.

Can you recommend a custom home builder in Calgary?

Absolutely. We have strong partnerships with many of Calgary’s top custom home builders and can recommend the right team for your renovation based on the scope and style of your project.

What’s the difference between a residential designer and an architect?

In terms of home design, a residential designer and an architect produce similar results. However, in Alberta, an architect is only required for multi-family dwellings with more than five units. For custom single-family homes, our residential designers work closely with architects in Calgary when needed to ensure that your project meets all necessary requirements.
