Carpet Diem, our own design center
The design center is where it becomes yours.
Free design assistance at our own design center, Carpet Diem — finishes, fixtures and upgrades, chosen with a consultant.
Personalize it
Sit down with a design consultant.
Buying a resale means living with someone else’s choices. Building new means you sit down with a design consultant and choose the finishes that fit your taste and your budget — cabinet styles, countertops, flooring, lighting, fixtures, and more.
We’ll guide you toward selections that look beautiful together and keep your build on schedule. By the time you walk in on move-in day, every room feels like you.

What you choose
Everything you picked comes together.
Cabinets, countertops, flooring, paint, and lighting — everything you picked at the design center comes together. This is where the house becomes your home.

Early, on purpose
Lock your selections before the walls close.
Early in the process, at the design center, before construction reaches those stages. Locking selections early keeps your build on schedule and your budget predictable.
Every device in the smart-home package comes standard in every single-family Candlelight home. No à-la-carte packages, no surprise line items at the design center.
Good questions, straight answers
