Unless you are a real estate developer, you may be wondering: what in the world is a “site adapt”?

A site adapt is the process of taking an existing building design — a set of architectural plans for a prior-produced model — and modifying it so that it fits a specific property. This can include adjusting for the lot’s shape, flood elevation, orientation to the sun, utility connections, or unique conditions on the site.

In other words, instead of designing a building entirely from scratch, a site adapt reuses and tailors an already proven design so that it works properly on a new lot. This approach saves time, reduces costs, and helps home owners and developers maintain consistency across multiple projects. (Instead of reinventing the wheel, we simply take an existing “wheel”, of your choice, and tweak it.)
