Our Story
Wiegand Design and Build is built on a legacy of expert craftsmanship and innovative design. For more than four decades and spanning two generations of our family, we have been dedicated to building homes that inspire.
How it started — a note from our CEO & Lead Designer
We know that the best houses are the ones that are built to be truly lived in. Our design and build philosophies are inspired by our lives — including time spent traveling together. On our honeymoon, we stayed at a small house on a little island in Nova Scotia, tucked neatly next to the ocean and fully surrounded by trees. The house embraced its natural setting, featuring large windows facing the ocean and allowing sunlight to bounce off the water. The cedar shake siding and large timber structures blended in with the forest surrounding it. The wood-burning fireplace and large French doors connected you to the outdoors and allowed the scent of woodsy, ocean air to flow. With its minimalist design, the home was an oasis, an escape from the busyness of life, and provided all who visited with a place of inspiration and rest. Although our stay was only five days, that experience of captivating, minimalist design has never left us.
Two years later, we spent significant time traveling throughout New Zealand and Australia. Again, we experienced first-hand architecture that embraces its surroundings. Featuring a minimalist design and highlighting raw, earthy materials, the homes we stayed in intentionally created space for inspiration and respite — yet still met our day-to-day needs.
Inspired by our travels and what we learned about experiential living — as well as more than a decade of experience in the industry — we made the decision to design and build homes that inspire and captivate you, that embrace natural elements and indoor/outdoor living, and that offer a place of respite and peace.
