Our History

Ames Design Build


Ames Design Build is a family run business with decades of industry expertise. By combining the design process with construction budgeting, we are able to create architecture that is unique, beautiful, functional and maximizes value. We are experts at  building site evaluation, initial home design, and accurate budgeting which bring together key components to create superior estate homes.

Since our founding in 1995 we have completed hundreds of custom estate homes.  We started in Southern California in prestigious San Diego communities such as Heritage Estates in Poway, Del Mar, Encinitas, Del Sur and Santa Luz.

Then, in 2013, we made the move to Austin and have thrived on the open spaces and rolling hills.  We have completed many luxury estates in Barton Creek, Spanish Oaks, Signal Hill, Lake Travis, Lake Austin and Madrone Canyon. Our experience and vast portfolio of projects has allowed us to incorporate time-tested qualities that result in the best possible outcome for everyone involved.

Our ability to combine architecture, land, and construction seamlessly creates homes where generational memories are made.
