2 HSW Credit Hours

This continuing education course examines how advanced technologies are transforming the design, documentation, and delivery of custom residential projects. As client expectations evolve and digital tools rapidly advance, architects must integrate new methodologies that enhance precision, efficiency, and collaboration while maintaining the core values of custom home design.

Participants will explore the practical application of emerging technologies—including artificial intelligence (AI), Building Information Modeling (BIM), parametric design, and digital fabrication—within the custom home workflow. Emphasis is placed on improving health, safety, and welfare (HSW) outcomes through better visualization, coordination, and performance-based design.

Through real-world examples and implementation strategies, this course equips architects to leverage technology in ways that elevate design quality, reduce risk, and create highly personalized residential environments.
