Custom Design

Designing and building your home is not really about construction details and materials. It's really about creating an environment that serves all of your aspirations for style, stimulation, comfort, safety and personal associations. It's about creating a place that renders a deep feeling within you that says this is my home as you approach, enter and live in your custom home atmosphere. It's about appearance, and how you feel about your home.

A PAN ABODE Design Professional will help you create your home, incorporating your own features and style. They can guide your design considerations and decisions, or they can collect your impressions and produce a perfect fit. Together, we will produce a home that meets your unique needs and desires. You can follow architectural, contemporary, craftsman, prairie, southwest, Spanish, French, Tudor, etc. Or, you can create a home of your own definition. Whichever path you take, it will be your creation, a representation of your own personal style. Just ask about our Custom Architectural design Service.

The atmosphere of a PAN ABODE is ideal for any lodging or bed & breakfast project you may be considering.

Cabins

Additions

PAN ABODE has produced homes for over fifty years. Because solid timber cedar homes age so gracefully, many current homeowners wish to expand or remodel. We understand that a home designed and built in the 50's will have different features as compared to those built only a few years ago. Our design team can assist you in creating virtually any style addition, remodel or expansion you want. Whether your home is a PAN ABODE or not, we can create the atmosphere that only a PAN ABODE can provide.
