The Plan Drawer: An Alternative Starting Point for Your Dream Home

If you’re thinking about building a custom home, you’ve likely realized just how many decisions go into bringing your vision to life. From layout and flow to curb appeal and functionality, designing a custom home from scratch can be exciting, but also overwhelming and expensive.

That’s where The Plan Drawer comes in.

The Plan Drawer is a specialized part of Residential Designed Solutions that offers a curated library of professionally crafted house plans. Each house was thoughtfully designed to meet the needs of today’s homeowners. These are not generic, one-size-fits-all layouts. These are real plans developed by seasoned designers and architects who understand how families live, move, and grow in their space.

And the best part? You don’t have to settle.

Our team can customize any plan in the library to fit your lot, your city’s building requirements, or your personal style. Need to flip the plan to fit your lot orientation? We offer Right Reading Reverse Plans, so every label and measurement is easy to follow on the job site, reducing confusion and mistakes during construction.

Why Choose a Pre-Designed Plan?
Hundreds of homes have been built using plans from The Plan Drawer library, and most of them include some level of customization.

By starting with a pre-drawn plan, you can:

• Fast-track your design process

• Save significantly on design costs

• Customize the plan to fit your lot and lifestyle

• Receive a complete set of accurate construction documents

All for a fraction of the cost of a fully custom home design. It’s a smart and flexible solution for homeowners and builders alike.

Our Services Include:

• Custom Plan Changes – Modify any plan to meet your needs or local code requirements

• Right Reading Reverse Plans – Mirrored plans with properly oriented text and dimensions

• Custom Home Design – When you want something entirely new, we’ve got you covered
