PODCAST EP 002 - LAND - Where will you build?
106 McQuigg Shown
In this week's episode of the CA-RD Custom Home and Architecture podcast, We guide you through exploring the concept of a minimalist/narrative-driven home and explains why choosing the right property is essential to create one successfully. Building a minimalist home begins with a land search; otherwise, it's almost like you're leaping forward too quickly. Enjoy the episode by tuning in.
Here are key things to listen out for:
1. The process of building a custom home starts with a land search: without your specific piece of property. It's almost like jumping too far ahead.
2. Different ways of interacting with a site: Ensure the interaction with the earth is specific to you when designing your property.
3. JD Carling's goal and commitment: The goal is to work together and bring the beauty of your narrative into physical form.

Notable quotes
● There are different ways of approaching interacting with your site. When doing a custom home, you want to make sure it's specific to you.
● What I believe is that each property has architectural DNA in it. And that if you buy a property or search for one, you deserve to have that architectural DNA brought out of the project.
● Even in the tightest, most minor place, you can find something unique.
● Our goal is to work with you once you buy your land to investigate your property, to make sure you're using it for your highest and best use to get the most simple solution to bring up the beauty you want.
● Our commitment is to treat each property as something as unique and wonderful. I almost want to think of it as like, whatever property you get or have, there's buried treasure there.
● Every piece of land has it's own The Beverly Hillbillies Texas tea / black gold.
