The concept of a one-stop shop builder’s design studio is not new: building a custom home is a complicated process that begins with an architectural plan and demands hundreds of structural and design questions, all coming together in critical layers on a tight time schedule.
About twenty years ago, builders created the concept of design studios to help clients manage all the choices and bridge the gap from architects/designers to contractors and implementation.
New Leaf Custom Homes was one of them: the luxury home builder opened the New Leaf Design Studio in 2014, at 9840 North Central Expressway, to handle the entire design package for client’s custom homes, everything from floor plans, architectural construction documents, and permit drawings, custom cabinet drawings down to interior finishes and landscaping.
A First: The Design Shop Experience Now Available Nationwide
Now, for the first time, The Design Shop is available to home builders anywhere, in any state— for clients who want custom-designed homes and a seamless building experience. The gist: the company wanted to be able to provide comprehensive design services to clients anywhere in the nation and for any a la carte services. Opening the design shop guarantees a full service or a la cart design service all over the nation.
Clients can choose anything from time-tested custom design plans to furnishing and styling only. The Design Shop is 100% able to reach a wider swath of people outside of the local custom home building realm.
“In the years we’ve been in business, we’ve designed hundreds of projects from small kitchen renovations to 8,000-plus-square-foot luxury homes,” says Ryland Clark, Director of Business Development. “The thing that makes us so unique is that we have, over the years, created some of the best construction documents in the country. They’re incredibly easy to understand and no detail is left out, making them perfect for contractors … even if they aren’t familiar with our design studio.”

New Leaf Custom Homes Paves the Way

Over the years, they have assembled a team of home experts dedicated to the design and building of stunning, high-quality custom homes. Their in-house designers grew in both experience and number as they cultivated the signature New Leaf home style. With Melissa at the helm, this team began extending their expertise in architecture and interiors to clients building throughout Dallas and beyond—and thus, The Design Shop was born.
