Build better.

Every stud, beam and duct of your custom home, modelled before the first delivery. Problems get solved on screen, not on site.

Start a project What I do

I spent twenty-five years framing custom homes. Now I build them in 3D first, so your crews walk onto a site where the questions are already answered.

What I do

Fewer surprises. A smoother build.

01

Clash detection, with the fix

Beams through ducts, plumbing through footings, stairs that don't clear the header. Every clash comes as a screenshot, a note and a workable solution, not just a red flag.

02

Field-informed framing models

Models built the way a framer thinks: plates, headers, bearing, point loads, the hard corners. Your crew sees exactly what to build and why.

03

Takeoffs you can order from

Material lists pulled straight from the model, grouped the way the yard reads them. Less waste, fewer dump runs, no second-guessing the count.

04

Trade coordination

One model the architect, engineer, HVAC and plumber all work from. I know what each of them needs and I move the answers between them, so you don't spend your day on the phone.

How it works

Built before you build.

  1. 1

    Send the drawings

    Architectural and structural sets, in whatever state they're in. I build the whole house from them.

  2. 2

    Get the report

    Every issue found, with a picture, a location and a proposed fix. You decide, I update the model.

  3. 3

    Build from the model

    Your crews work from a model that matches the drawings and the engineer's answers. Fewer calls, fewer changes, fewer delays.

About

Jerry Ringwald

I framed high-end custom homes in the Lower Mainland for over twenty-five years before I started modelling them. I know what a set of drawings turns into on site, where it goes wrong, and what the engineer and the architect need to hear to fix it.

Priima is me, working as part of your team: no ego, no jargon, just a cleaner build and a crew that isn't waiting on answers.
