Passionate Builders
This is a craft, not a production line. We are on site, hands on the work, answering your questions ourselves rather than handing you off to a call center.

Build It Right Design is a custom home builder specializing in high-performance passive construction — houses that stay comfortable through a Colorado winter on a fraction of the energy an ordinary home needs.
“Precision in every plan. Vision in every space.”
Build It Right Design is a Pagosa Springs general contractor operating as Bird Networks LLC. We take on a small number of custom homes each year so that every framing detail, every air-seal, and every finish gets the attention it deserves.
This is a craft, not a production line. We are on site, hands on the work, answering your questions ourselves rather than handing you off to a call center.
Passive-house principles guide every decision — envelope, orientation, glazing, and mechanicals are designed together so the building works as one system.
Detailed blueprints and site execution under one roof. Your home is drawn for your lot, your light, and the way you actually live — then built to match the drawings.
A passive home is engineered to hold its own temperature. Instead of burning energy to fight the weather, the building itself does the work — so the furnace barely runs, even in January at 7,000 feet.
Up to 90% savings on heating and cooling compared with a conventionally built home of the same size.
Thick, continuous insulation with thermal breaks that stop heat from leaking out through the framing itself.
A tested, verified air barrier — no drafts, no dust pathways, no snow blowing through a hidden gap in the wall.
Balanced mechanical ventilation with heat recovery delivers filtered outdoor air around the clock, without throwing away the warmth.
We handle the whole build. One contract, one point of contact, one crew accountable for the result.
Ground-up custom residences designed and built to your brief — from compact mountain cabins to full-size family homes.
Envelope design, air-sealing, super insulation, and heat-recovery ventilation executed to passive-house standards.
Full project management: scheduling, subcontractors, materials, inspections, and budget tracking, start to finish.
Construction-ready drawings and detailing, so what gets built is exactly what was planned and priced.
Site work, foundations, utilities, and grading — getting your lot ready to hold the home properly.
Additions, renovations, and performance upgrades that bring an existing home closer to passive standards.
A completed custom build in Pagosa Springs — vaulted ceilings, a sheltered porch for the weather, and finishes chosen to last.
