Custom Construction
Ground-up homes designed to live in for decades.
From hill country aerie to lakefront retreat, we build new homes that solve for how families actually live, not how a spec house assumes they do.

Why Bijou Builds
We build homes the way we would build for our own family.
Bijou Builds is a relationship-first custom home builder serving Austin and the Texas Hill Country. We work with architects, designers, and homeowners from the first sketch through the final punch list. One team, one standard, one point of accountability.
No volume targets. No subcontractor handoffs on the work that matters. No surprises on the things that should never be a surprise.
- Design-build collaboration from day one
- Hyper-communication, weekly site updates
- Honest scope, honest pricing
- Built to last 50 years, not 5
Luxury Remodels
Vintage Austin homes reborn with modern precision.
Bigger than a refresh, smaller than a rebuild. We take homes with good bones and bring them to current systems, current finishes, and current life.

Lake Austin Retro Reno
Lake Austin, TX
A completed lakefront retro renovation on Lake Austin. Bold mid-century color, themed bedrooms, a yellow-and-magenta great room with diner-bar living, and a glass-railed lakeside deck. Built as a one-of-one Lake Austin escape that leans hard into its retro identity.

Barton Creek Modern Refresh
Barton Creek, Austin, TX
An active Barton Creek renovation of a Tuscan-era hill country house. The work centers on the kitchen and the core living spaces: a plan that interrupted itself is being opened up, and the systems behind the walls are being brought up to the new layout. The gallery runs from the house as we found it through the current phase of construction.
