Jordan Smith takes viewers inside the design phase of a modern custom home in Austin—before construction even begins. Using the Pool Canyon project, he shows how site-specific design, sun studies, and rapid iteration shape orientation, glazing, and shading to capture views while controlling heat gain. By designing with the land and the sun—not against them—Jordan proves that high-performance homes start long before the first shovel hits the ground. LINK IN BIO - JORDAN SMITH | Build Show Network
