Custom Brick House Plans

Your home, built brick by brick. ✦ We turn a few photos of your house into custom plans for a brick model of it: the roofline, the windows, the porch and the colors, on a base about 15 inches square. A one-of-a-kind keepsake and a wonderful weekend build.

What you'll receive

• A personalized, illustrated instruction booklet (PDF), one clear step per page with the new pieces highlighted
• 3D step-by-step instructions you can turn and zoom on a phone, tablet or computer
• A complete parts list with every piece's color, count and part number, plus ready-made upload files for popular online brick shops
• Studio renderings and a time-lapse video of your build
• A private web page with everything in one place

How it works

1. Place your order, then send us a few photos of the home from your order page.
2. We design a brick model of your home by hand.
3. Your plans arrive on your own private web page.
4. Order the bricks with the parts list (or choose a complete kit), then build it, step by step.

The classic edition

• Usually 700 to 1,200 pieces on a 48 × 48 stud base, about 15 in (38 cm) square
• 3 to 7 inches tall, depending on the house
• About 3 to 8 hours to build; no building experience needed
• We keep what makes the house yours (a red front door, a favorite tree, the porch swing) and simplify the thinnest details, like gutters and wires, so the model stays sturdy

Photos we need

A few clear photos are enough: the front (straight on, if you can), each front corner and the back. Close-ups of special details help too. Old family snapshots and real-estate listing photos often work well. Where a side isn't visible, we fill it in sensibly.

Good to know

• Digital plans: bricks are not included. Every model uses standard pieces in current colors, and we check that each piece can be ordered before your plans are delivered.
• Each model is designed by hand, so timing depends on the house and on how busy the studio is. We'll confirm the timing when you order.
• The booklet is US Letter landscape and prints beautifully in color, double-sided.

A one-of-a-kind gift

Housewarmings, closing gifts, anniversaries, the house you grew up in, the grandparents' home, or just because.
