A HOME BUILT AROUND HOW YOU ACTUALLY LIVE

You've walked through the new builds. Same layouts, same finishes, same compromises repeated street after street. None of them are quite right, because none of them were built for you.

Building your own home should be the answer. What stops most people isn't the dream. It's how big the decision feels, and not knowing who to trust to get it right.

That's what Clark and Aldine is for. We design and build custom homes across Metro Detroit. One team handles design, construction, and interiors, from the first conversation to the final walkthrough. Nothing handed off. Nothing lost. Just a home that turns out exactly the way it should.

Each of these began as one family's idea of home. We built it exactly as they pictured it, down to the details and built it to be lived in for the rest of their lives.

Your vision to reality

BALDWIN + BARRY

A full historic home transformation carried through every room — structure, kitchen, baths, and millwork resolved as one composition. Generous, commanding, and unmistakably of the house it started as.

LIGHTHOUSE + GREENWOOD

A 1970s home reimagined for the family living in it now. Warm wood, custom cabinetry, and a floor plan that finally moves the way they do — open where it should be, quiet where it needs to be. Effortless without ever looking like it tried.

AUBURN + GRACE

A 1950s bungalow taken down to the systems and rebuilt — new HVAC, electrical, and plumbing behind every wall, every room redesigned above them. Familiar and new at the same time.

ONE TEAM TAKES YOUR HOME FROM FIRST IDEA TO FINISHED BUILD

Most builds get passed between an architect, a builder, and a crew, and the home you actually wanted gets lost in the handoffs. We keep it one team, start to finish, with Michael running the build and Danielle leading the look, so every decision is made by someone you know and talk to directly. We take on only a few homes at a time, which is why the process feels handled instead of stressful.
