Focused on Environmentally Sensitive, Venacular Design

At Elevated Timberworks + Custom Construction, our design philosophy is rooted in environmentally responsive, vernacular architecture that works with—not against—the landscape and climate. We create homes that are as durable and high-performing as they are beautiful, designed to support healthier living, reduce energy demands, and harmonize with the Teton region’s unique environment.

One of the most important steps in building a successful custom home is choosing the right piece of land. By getting us involved early—before or during the land purchasing process—we can help evaluate site conditions, solar orientation, utility access, and overall build feasibility. This ensures your property is the right fit for your goals and budget, saving time, money, and potential surprises down the road.

Whether you’re beginning with an architect or seeking a complete design–build experience, we can integrate seamlessly with your team or provide start-to-finish design and engineering services. Through our partnership with Lot 19 Engineers, our clients gain access to licensed structural engineering and extensive expertise in energy-efficient design.

Every home we design incorporates advanced building practices and certified high-performance details, including:

• Double-stud wall construction for enhanced insulation, superior air sealing, simplified utility integration, and reduced thermal bridging.
• Triple-pane, high solar heat gain windows and doors to maximize comfort, efficiency, and passive solar performance.
• Certified Passive House design strategies, including air-sealing details, efficient ventilation systems, and optimized building orientation.
• Energy Star–rated appliances for long-term reliability and reduced energy use.
• Passive solar design principles to naturally heat and light your home using the sun’s energy.
• Air sealing and moisture management strategies that ensure healthy indoor air, thermal comfort, and long-term durability.

To keep you informed and involved every step of the way, we use Buildertrend, a cloud-based project management platform offering real-time updates, transparent budgeting, schedule tracking, and clear communication in one place.

Our goal is to design homes that are site-specific, energy-efficient, and tailored to your lifestyle—spaces that feel right today and perform beautifully for decades to come.

Building Options to Make Budgets Work

At Elevated Custom Construction, we leverage our deep knowledge of building systems and trusted relationships with local subcontractors to help you make informed, strategic decisions throughout your project. Our goal is to align your unique vision and needs with your budget—ensuring you get the best value without compromising quality.

We understand that accurate estimation and thoughtful value engineering are critical to a successful build. Properly specifying building systems and assemblies can be the difference between a project that exceeds expectations and one that struggles to stay on budget or falls short of performance goals.

Our experienced team works closely with you to analyze options, recommend alternatives, and optimize your project scope. By focusing on cost-effective solutions and efficient construction practices, we help you maximize investment while maintaining the high standards you expect from Elevated Custom Construction.

Built to the Highest Standards—Inside and Out

At Elevated Timberworks + Custom Construction, we bring a comprehensive understanding of building science and meticulous construction detailing to every residential project we undertake. Our skilled team of craftspeople pays close attention to the critical control layers that are essential for a truly high-performance home: bulk water management, airtight sealing, vapor control, and effective thermal insulation.

While we take great pride in delivering exquisite finish work that makes your home visually stunning, we know that lasting comfort, health, and energy efficiency start well behind the walls. Our commitment to precision craftsmanship from the foundation upward ensures every home we build provides clean indoor air, safe water, consistent thermal comfort, and the structural durability to stand strong for generations.

By combining advanced building techniques with quality materials and thoughtful design, we create homes that are not only beautiful but also sustainable and resilient—spaces where you and your family can thrive comfortably and confidently for years to come.
