Hygge” refers to a Danish and Norwegian idea that’s often translated as “comfort” in English. But the word conveys so much more.

“Hygge” stands for a calm celebration of the everyday. It brings to mind familiar places and quality time shared with those you care about most. The word encompasses the satisfaction that comes from doing small things well.

Being deliberate and collaborative from the very start, we can create a dwelling that feels right at home. We know we’ve achieved hygge when your house is both a sanctuary and a statement; when every last detail seems intentional, inevitable.

The Swedish word “Lagom” stands for proportionality, for perfection in simplicity. As the saying goes, “you always want to have the right amount.”

This is exactly how we approach our build process: in a measured, balanced way that defines a clear path through the mass of complicated decisions and moving parts. Each fayze of our process is designed around tight timelines and your budget. When they come together, the entire construction experience feels well built.

Some clients want close collaboration and will give input on every decision. Others trust us to bring their vision to life, from beginning to end. Whether you plan to stand well back or become part of the team, our efforts will keep the project flowing.

Okay, so why Fayzebuilt?

Our team takes a fayzed approach to building your home, anticipating every last detail. Breaking down project plans into the smallest components leads to certainty and consistency as well as flexibility and refinement.

With ambitious standards, we’re never bound to outdated construction practices. You’ll explore multiple choices for materials and methods, finding ways to maximize value at every turn.
