I recently received the enclosed letter from our clients Paul and Cathy Kalenian whose home we completed just over two years ago. I wanted to share it with all of you because it most clearly defines who we are and what we do.
Dear Sharon,
We know you have been designing and building "custom" homes here in Santa Fe for thirty five years, but after enjoying our home for almost 3 years, we feel that you do far more than build “custom homes”. We believe you design and build "bespoke” homes.
The difference between a “custom” and a “bespoke” home is that custom homes, while built for the client, are often the result of merely checking off boxes on a builder’s option sheet. They tend to be more a reflection of the builder’s trademark style than an understanding of the client’s personality.
Our Woods “Bespoke” home is the result of your practice of attentive listening and observation of clients desires, honed by your 35 years of experience. Our Woods home was “tailored” to us, our lifestyle, our views, and our neighborhood, because you listened and understood our dreams. Like a Saville Row suit, our “bespoke” home is one of a kind, because you designed and “tailored” our home to fit us.
Woods does have a signature common to all your homes we have visited. It is attention to detail, utmost quality and incredible craftsmanship. Additionally, each home reflects your commitment that a Woods Home embodies a unique design and it is built specifically to house each individual client’s dreams.
Woods Bespoke Homes are the result of your clean sheet approach to personal design tailoring, followed by utilizing the absolute best materials, craftsmanship and job site supervision. On time, as quoted.
Thank You for building our home for us.
Cathy and Paul Kalenian
