Eiger Homes
What We Built and Why It Worked
When you’re a high-end custom home builder operating primarily on referrals, your website doesn’t need to generate hundreds of leads. It needs to do something more important: validate trust instantly.
For Eiger Homes, a Wisconsin-based custom home builder and remodeler, the goal wasn’t mass lead generation. It was to create a polished, professional online presence that reflected the same level of craftsmanship, integrity, and care that goes into every project. The new site had to support serious, financially ready clients who were already partially vetted through referrals—while reinforcing Eiger Homes as a premier Wisconsin custom home builder.
We designed a clean, image-forward Squarespace website that positions Eiger Homes as an upscale builder with modern refinement. Using a mix of dark and light sections, strong visual hierarchy, and subtle motion effects, the site feels elevated without being trendy. The color palette—blue, black, and white—was refined for cohesion across logos, typography, and section backgrounds, ensuring the brand feels intentional and consistent across every page.
Rather than relying on flashy effects or illustrations (which were intentionally avoided), we leaned into what sets Eiger Homes apart: exceptional craftsmanship and real portfolio imagery. Large-scale project photography drives the experience, supported by minimal, confident copy structured using a StoryBrand framework. This ensures visitors quickly understand:
What Eiger Homes does (custom homes and full-service remodeling)
Who it’s for (serious, referral-based clients)
What to do next (view the process or get in touch)
The site architecture—Homepage, Custom Homes, Remodeling, Portfolio, Our Process, About, Blog, and Contact—creates a clear, intuitive journey. Remodeling pages were designed with future-ready “before and after” display options, allowing for interactive sliders or side-by-side comparisons that highlight transformation and detail.
Because the site is built on Squarespace 7.1, Chris can confidently manage blog updates and content edits himself. We created clean, repeatable blog templates to support SEO growth and long-term flexibility—backed by strategic structure similar to our approach to SEO-driven web design.
The result? A refined, modern custom home builder website that feels as high-end as the homes Eiger builds.
Client Context
Eiger Homes is a high-end custom home builder and remodeler based in Wisconsin, specializing in fully custom builds and long-term, high-touch remodeling projects for discerning clients.
The Challenge
The new website had to establish Eiger Homes as a standalone, premium brand—without referencing its past before this rebrand—while maintaining strong blog traffic and referral credibility.
At the same time, the site needed to reflect elevated craftsmanship without feeling overly complex, trendy, or templated.
Our Strategy
We approached this as a brand elevation project supported by strategic web design. Using principles from our custom Squarespace website design services, we created a minimal, sophisticated layout driven by strong imagery, refined typography, and clear content hierarchy.
We structured the messaging using StoryBrand-inspired clarity—similar to our StoryBrand website approach—so referral clients could quickly understand the value, process, and next steps.
