While you may think that working with an architect beforehand gives you a head start on building the house of your dreams, it may actually deter the process. Building a home requires many moving pieces and teamwork from various industry professionals. Therefore we recommend to all of our clients working with a design-build firm. Paradigm Homes has a slate of well-established, highly-skilled architects, designers, and Bethesda home builders to sketch, design, and build a project to completion.
