How Our Process Works

Your custom home journey begins with discovery. You'll discuss how you live, what spaces matter most, and what makes a house feel like home. In Cranberry Township and surrounding areas, that means accounting for lot shape, natural light, and the architectural character of your neighborhood.


Bottega Drafting + Design uses sketches and drawings to show you how rooms connect, how light moves through spaces, and how the exterior massing relates to the lot. You'll see elevations, floor plans, and material options at every stage. This personal, collaborative process ensures your home design is tailored to your lifestyle.


Zoning research and layout optimization are handled as part of the service, so you know your design can be permitted and built. You'll receive construction-ready plans that guide contractors through every detail, reducing miscommunication and keeping your project on track.

Building a custom home raises important questions about design, permitting, and construction. Here are answers to help you understand what to expect.

Details That Matter Most

How early should I involve a designer in the process?
As soon as you know your lot or have a property in mind. Early involvement allows the design to respond to site conditions and streamline permitting.
What site factors influence the design?
Lot shape, tree lines, natural light patterns, and neighborhood architectural styles all shape the design. In Cranberry, these factors ensure your home feels naturally placed.
Do you help with zoning and permitting?
Yes. Zoning research and code compliance are included, ensuring your design meets local building requirements for Western Pennsylvania municipalities.
Can I see what the home will look like before construction?
Absolutely. You'll receive visual tools including elevations, floor plans, and massing studies that show you exactly what the home will look like.
How long does custom home design take?
Most projects take eight to twelve weeks from concept to construction-ready plans. The timeline depends on complexity and the level of detail required.

Your custom home should be a reflection of your life, your lot, and your long-term goals. With the right design partner, you'll move from concept to construction with confidence and clarity.
