Turning Vision Into a Home You Can See

At Select Design & Build, the Plan Design phase is where your ideas take shape. It’s where artistry, technical expertise, and your personal tastes come together to create a home plan that’s as functional and durable as it is beautiful. Every detail—big or small—is tailored to your lot, your lifestyle, and your long-term goals.

What Happens During Plan Design

1. Selecting & Modifying Floor Plans

Choose from our award-winning home plans—known for livable layouts, comfort, and timeless design.
Modify to fit your needs: enlarge rooms, adjust ceiling heights (think vaulted great rooms), shift square footage, or even blend features from multiple plans.
Adapt the design to your lot’s orientation, natural light, and unique views.

2. Interior & Exterior Styling Choices

Exterior details: siding, roofing, elevation style, entry features.
Interior finishes: cabinetry, flooring, hardware, stone, tile, lighting, built-ins.
Specialty touches: feature walls, custom ceilings, smart storage solutions, and seamless indoor/outdoor connections (sliding glass walls, covered patios, decks).

3. Detailed Drawings & Visualization

Review 3D renderings or digital walkthroughs so you can experience the flow before we break ground.
Structural and mechanical planning—HVAC, framing, window placement, energy efficiency—are factored into every detail.

4. Feedback & Refinement

We believe design should be collaborative and iterative. You’ll review drafts, provide feedback, and watch your vision evolve until everything feels exactly right. Every adjustment is made with budget, feasibility, and construction quality in mind.

Our Plan Tiers

We know every client has a different vision—and a different level of customization in mind. That’s why we offer three design tiers to fit your needs:

Tier 1: Focused Tier

Designed for clients who want to personalize one of our plans with minor modifications. This tier allows for small structural or non-structural adjustments—such as patio extensions, window adjustments, or ceiling treatments—while maintaining the integrity of the original design. It includes one round of revisions and CAD setup to prepare the plan for your specific homesite.

Tier 2: Tailored Tier

Ideal for clients looking to make more significant modifications to an existing plan. This tier allows structural changes to up to 50% of the home design and includes two rounds of revisions. Our CAD team will develop customized layouts, elevations, and site-specific adjustments to help shape the home to better fit your vision and property.

Tier 3: Innovative Tier

Our most flexible option for clients seeking extensive design customization. This tier supports major structural modifications—up to a full transformation of the original plan. With up to three rounds of revisions and detailed CAD development, this tier allows for a highly personalized home designed around your lifestyle and lot requirements.

If I could sum up building with Select Design & Build in one word, it would be “trust.” From start to finish, the team made us feel confident that our home was in good hands. They turned what could have been an overwhelming process into an exciting and enjoyable journey. We always felt heard, supported, and cared for—like our project truly mattered.

Thank you for helping us create a home that reflects who we are. It’s more than just a house to us—it’s where our favorite moments will happen for years to come.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great process because of the team that helped me through the difficult process of my build.  From initial design through the difficult processing of approvals from the County Select Homes stood behind my build.
The Select Team did what other builders would not or could not do because I was an out of state owner/builder and they handled the whole process.
Thank you Team Select!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolute WOW experience! The only custom home builder I would recommend in Central Oregon! Their quality and design is similar to the luxury home builder Toll Brothers. Whatever your vision, the team will absolutely accomplish the goal for your family. Ray was our Superintendent for our project. He did not disappoint! His communication is clear, punctual and effective. Day or night, he was always available for questions and brainstorming.
We opted to have our home furnished by Pahlisch Select also. Holy smokes! Designer Kelli Weisenfluh is Special Operations Design Specialist! Her kindness and genuine passion for her trade is second to none. Pahlisch is incredibly blessed to have Kelli and Ray. They started as business partners and at the end of project, we are now good friends. Thank you Pahlisch Select for developing a team that supports your culture and passion for the business! You are truly the BEST of Central Oregon!
