Architectural Collaborations

The Architectural Collaboration program by the Acorn Deck House Company represents a forward-thinking approach to custom home design and construction. By combining the creative visions of independent architects with the company’s prefabrication expertise, this program delivers custom homes that are not only beautiful and unique but also built with precision, efficiency, and a commitment to sustainability.

Benefits of the Program

Customization and Quality: The collaboration between architects and the Acorn Deck House Company allows for a high degree of customization, ensuring that each home reflects the homeowner’s vision and needs. The integration of prefabrication in the process enhances the quality and precision of the construction.
Efficiency: The prefabrication process not only ensures quality but also significantly reduces construction time on-site. This efficiency is a key advantage, allowing homeowners to enjoy their custom homes sooner.
Sustainability: Prefabrication is known for reducing waste and improving energy efficiency, both in the manufacturing process and in the final construction. This approach aligns with modern sustainability goals, making it an attractive option for environmentally conscious homeowners.

Integrated Design and Fabrication Process

Once a design concept is agreed upon, the collaborative team develops detailed working drawings. These drawings serve as the blueprint for the prefabrication process, which takes place in Acorn Deck House Company’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facility. This facility is equipped to produce high-quality, custom components for each home, ensuring precision and consistency in the construction process.

On-Site Construction

After the prefabrication stage, the custom components are transported to the construction site, where the home is assembled. This phase benefits from the meticulous planning and precision of the prefabricated components, allowing for a streamlined construction process that maintains the integrity of the original design while ensuring a high level of quality.

Talking with [Acorn Deck House Company] staff made me seriously consider using [this] firm, but what finally ‘clinched it’ was that Acorn Deck House architect collaborations were encouraged… [It was a] happy collaboration. [My Architect] Glen Fontecchio worked with [Acorn Deck House’s] staff to design a home perfectly suited to our needs. Without a doubt, the final house is spectacular and really shows this dedication to the entire project.Joan R, Rhode Island Retreat Owner

The house was conceived of as a camp: two structures with sloped roofs linked by the open, glass living room and decks. The living room is the campground and campfire between two cabins… Acorn Deck House was very accommodating to our architectural goals, while providing feedback as to ways to improve the efficiency and affordability of the structure.Glen Fontecchio of Glen S.
