Rand Soellner Architect was contacted in mid-2006 by Wills Builders, Inc.  Justin Wills, the president of Wills Builders said they were seeking an architect.  A professional on whom they could depend for creative mountain home designs along with detailed construction documents, so that the builder would have fewer problems during construction and so that their clients would be satisfied. Rand Soellner found this very interesting, because he was also looking for an outstanding State-licensed General Contractor who would actually build Rand’s projects the way they were designed, without making unauthorized “cheapening” changes unilaterally, and who would contact him to discuss construction issues rather than guessing. So, Justin Wills and several of his staff members came from Murphy, NC to visit  Rand and see several of his design drawing sets and to tour several of his built projects, convincing themselves that he had the right stuff.  Rand then visited Murphy and toured some of Wills Builders’ projects, noting the high-quality craftsmanship. The personalities and philosophies of design quality and construction quality were compatible and consistent.  Both companies are highly experienced in Value-Engineering, wherein the architect and contractor study conditions and client desires and find ways to give the client the “Most Bang For His Buck.” From that point on, Rand Soellner Architect & Wills Builders, Inc. have been offering and contracting with mutual clients, to give the client one team of professional companies (2 agreements) to both Design and Build their homes. Clients love it. One team of trusted professionals to handle the whole package for you! As part of the business plan, Wills Builders is establishing a location in Cashiers, in addition to Rand Soellner Architect also meeting with clients in their Murphy office.  Joint Design-Build projects are now in progress in Murphy , NC (3), Cashiers, NC (4), Fairview, NC (1) (south of Asheville) and Brevard, NC (1).  The team has also been approached by a worldwide clientele from locations as far away as Jordan.

The Rand Soellner Architect / Wills Builders Inc. team is pleased to announce that we were jointly recently selected and put under contract to both Design and Build 3 homes for a 2,200 acre century-old family estate in Cashiers, North Carolina. Our team will be creating a new main house, a secondary home and a boat house.  All of these facilities will be master planned by Rand Soellner Architect to integrate with existing structures, some of which have been on site for 50 years. Photo by: Wills Builders, Inc. Why we were selected: we were judged by extended family members as having the appropriate skills, experience and sensitivity to create new homes that will both functionally improve, yet aesthetically harmonize with the history of the built and natural features.  Also, Wills Builders Inc. expertise in computerized estimating of Rand Soellner’s designs will help the family to understand the economic implications of their decisions starting from the beginning of design through drawing completion and construction itself.  Furthermore, Wills Builders Inc. computerized time scheduling will help keep the project on track.  Wills will be using many of their reliable subcontractors, known for delivering quality for reasonable prices.  This translates into value for the client.  Top quality design for value-engineered pricing and delivered on or ahead of schedule.  What more could anyone want from their mountain home project?
