CUSTOM KOTO HOMES
A Home That’s Uniquely Yours
Koto offers a comprehensive custom house building service for those seeking a unique design-led residence. While our signature Scandinavian-inspired builds embody minimalist elegance with charred timber cladding and a deep connection to nature, our team of architects and interior designers can craft a one-of-a-kind home - tailored to your vision, your site, and your lifestyle.
Whether you wish to adapt an existing Koto design or create something entirely bespoke, our process ensures your home harmonises with its surroundings while reflecting who you are.
Our Approach
At Koto, we believe in the art of quiet luxury and nature-driven design. Every project is an opportunity to create architecture that is deeply rooted in place, balancing modern living with a profound connection to the landscape.
Our process is holistic. Architecture, interiors, light, and materiality are considered as one, a harmonious expression of design integrity.
We know that creating a home is one of life’s most personal journeys. Every decision matters. Every detail reflects you. Our role is to listen carefully and guide you with clarity, shaping and refining together until the vision feels exactly right.
We make the complex simple, taking you from first sketch to finished home through four clear stages. This end-to-end approach ensures consistency of vision and quality throughout, creating homes that are beautifully resolved and ready to inhabit.
The Bespoke Journey: Four Stages
CONCEPT DESIGN
We begin with a conversation, exploring your site, vision, and needs. From these ideas we develop early sketches, floor plans, and 3D models, paired with a clear cost overview to keep everything aligned from the start.DETAILED DESIGN & PLANNING
Your concept is refined into detailed drawings and visualisations that bring the home to life. We coordinate surveys, prepare sustainability assessments, and manage planning submissions so the process feels seamless.TECHNICAL DESIGN & BUILDING CONTROL
Every detail is resolved at this stage, from structural design to mechanical and electrical layouts. With full technical drawings and compliance secured, the construction phase is smooth and stress-free.Construction
Your home is brought to life with precision and care. Whether modularly crafted off-site or traditionally built on your land, we manage the project through to completion, ensuring the highest standards from first foundation to final handover.
Two Ways to CUSTOM Build with Koto
1) MODULAR BUILD
Fast and precise, modular homes are created in a factory environment where quality can be closely controlled. Large components are then delivered and assembled on-site, minimising disruption and reducing build time.
2) TRADITIONAL SITE BUILD
Crafted directly on your land, this approach allows flexibility for changes and adaptations as the project evolves. It’s ideal for more complex sites or for those who value the craft of a step-by-step build.
No boundaries. No templates.
Every bespoke Koto home is an act of design excellence.
Architecture with clarity, proportion, and purpose.
Materials chosen not only for their beauty but for how they endure, age, and ground you in place.
Living With Nature
Rooted in biophilic design, your home brings the outside in.
Light that changes with the day. Rooms that breathe with the seasons.
Natural materials that calm and connect. A home that restores as much as it inspires.
Built for Tomorrow
Sustainability is at the heart of every Koto home.
