SOUTHEAST BUILDINGSClemson · Lake Hartwell

Home Design

Homes designed around how you actually live.

Led by Jeff Schiffer, RA, NCARB — a licensed architect who also builds, leases, and manages property — we design custom homes and residential projects across the Southeast with real-world durability, cost, and livability in mind, from first sketch to final inspection.

Custom homes

New residential design from site analysis through construction documents — homes that fit their lot, their climate, and their owners.

Additions & renovations

Thoughtful additions, whole-home renovations, and adaptive reuse that respect what's there and add what's missing.

Rental & income properties

Duplexes, guest suites, and short-term-rental-ready layouts informed by what we've learned operating our own — designed to earn.

Design consultation

Feasibility studies, schematic options, and pre-purchase walk-throughs before you commit to a property or a plan.

Permitting support

Drawings and documentation prepared for local review, with revisions handled until you're cleared to build.

Construction phase

Site visits and builder coordination so what gets built matches what was drawn.
