Why did you form Ethos Building?For over 20 years, I wanted to develop a construction company devoted entirely to smaller homes that are not only architecturally designed but actually affordable. As I worked through the development process, I explored new and innovative building techniques and spoke with friends-who also just happened to be architects-concerning their own homes. It made perfect sense that if a home was carefully designed and budgeted to be constructed efficiently, it could possess architectural distinction and still leave the client flexibility with the material selections. This is true value, but the concept only works if the architect, client, and builder work as a team toward this common goal of keeping the material and labor costs in line.
