How we design an energy-efficient home

Designing an energy-efficient home means balancing your personal vision with proven building science. We design every home to work in harmony with its site, taking advantage of natural sunlight, fitting your lifestyle, and respecting your budget. 

Our design process integrates:

  • Passive solar principles to make the most of natural sunlight
  • A high-performance energy envelope to reduce energy loss and lower utility bills
  • Realistic-looking 3D models of exterior and interiors, so you can visualize your future homes before breaking ground. 
  • A preliminary budget estimate, so your home stays within your financial plan.

 

Each Stitt Home is unique, shaped entirely by the homeowners’ vision and style. Whether you love a modern farmhouse, a barndominium, or contemporary design, our in-house designers make it high performance. 

How we build an energy-efficient home

Once you approve your design and preliminary budget, we help you select a builder and stay involved through every phase of construction. Our team supervises each stage to make sure it’s done correctly for lasting comfort, durability, and long-term energy performance, so you don’t have to manage contractors, material deliveries, or quality control yourself.

  • Direct and responsive communication with our in-house team. No chatbots, no AI-generated responses, and no unanswered messages. Just real experts committed to your project.
  • A less stressful construction experience.
  • A properly built home, meaning no hidden costs, and lower energy and maintenance costs.
  • A data-proven, high-performance home, verified by a third-party HERS Rating.
  • A 2-year energy performance warranty.

 

Currently building at: 
Arkansas: Bentonville, Rogers, Fayetteville, Bella Vista, Garfield, Eureka Springs, Holiday Island, Rudy, and Theodosia.
Missouri: Joplin and Hermann.
Oklahoma: Broken Arrow and Tishomingo. 

Why add solar and battery storage to an energy efficient home?

Renewable energy is the smartest way to achieve true energy independence, even a off-grid home. Beucause a Stitt Homes is already built to use less energy, it needs a smaller, less exprensive solar system to power it than a standar home would.

Solar power is projected to be the most affordable energy source, and it will protect you from an unpredictable grid and fluctuating energy costs, giving you a truly sustainable home. When outages hit other homes, yours stay powered, lights on, and peace of mind intact.
