Builder: Home Designs by Bruno
Owner: Bruce "Bruno" Hayn
For years people who wanted a custom home design would seek an architect who could complete the design in a timely fashion, however, due to the cost and/or percentage of fees asked, the consumer often abandon this avenue. This opportunity has created Home Designs By Bruno, a locally based company dealing in designing homes, additions, and drafting services for the general public. Bruno is not only a custom home designer, but was once a builder, which means he has already experienced, many times over, most heartaches and troubles that can occur in a building project. His expertise, knowledge and experience in the home design and building field can clearly smooth the way for the first time builder, as well as the savvy builder, by avoiding many common and often traumatic decisions a home builder will have to make during the building phase of their project.

Designer:  David P Schulze - AIBD
www.dps-labs.com
I am affiliated with the American Institute of Building Design, and I have been nationally certified in building design by NCBDC.  My contribution to this project is it's appearance.  I like to say that:
    o - I am what the house looks like,
    o - Bruno is what the house works like, and combined,
    o - We are what the house feels like.

My specialization in "Curb Appeal" is brought to life in the form of animated computer models and 3D renderings.  On this project, 3D computer models were used for some interior design as well.  Design validation (Building the house using the computer simulation) was especially important because once the clock started ticking off the 106 hours, there simply was no time to "Come up with a fix".  Technically speaking, this is all called "Building Information Modeling".
