LEVELS OF SERVICE:
Custom Home Design
▱ At LGA Studios, we’re dedicated to delivering creative, reliable solutions to design challenges. We love working with our clients to create homes on any scale and in any style. What matters to us is that we deliver the home you’ve been dreaming of.
▱ Our Levels of Service allow you to customize your custom home design experience by determining in advance what features and services you require for your project’s success. You’ll never be charged for services or options you don’t use, and you may also add on any additional services or features that interest you.
▱ We want to make sure we’re the right team to meet (and hopefully exceed!) your expectations and needs, and your selection will allow us to best accommodate your project based on our availability and staffing requirements.

TESTIMONIAL
“We decided to hire LGA Studios, and it has been an incredible journey to work with the team at LGA. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome and integrity of this business. Larry Gilland listened to the desires for our custom home plans and executed them with detail. We had very particular desires for our home design and some challenges with our property but Larry had the solutions and designed the perfect home. He and his team are excellent and professional! Without hesitation, I would recommend them and would call them to design our next home.
We had no prior experience with building a custom home so we completely relied on their expertise to walk us through every detail of it. The team is friendly, kind, and knowledgeable so it’s been a pleasure to work with them.
LGA Studios has been featured in top magazines for best architectural design, luxury, innovation, plan, and have numerous awards for their work. With their experience, LGA met all our architectural and engineering needs to exceed our expectations. Deciding on LGA Studios is the best thing we did for our family. Thank you, Larry Gilland and LGA for our beautiful custom home!!”
