Our Story
Terravista Home was founded on a simple belief: building a home or residential project is a deeply personal responsibility, and the process deserves as much care as the final outcome. Shaped by the experience of Lakshmi Narasiman, the company was formed to approach residential construction with greater intention, discipline, and accountability, especially in environments where building demands a higher level of planning and precision.
Rather than treating design, planning, and construction as separate stages, Terravista Home guides the entire journey with clarity and responsibility. Our work spans custom luxury homes, vacation and investment properties, rebuilds, and thoughtful transformations, often set within challenging mountain landscapes and complex terrains where site conditions, access, and elevation require careful consideration. Every project is managed through a structured and consistent design–build approach.
At the heart of our work is clear communication. We take time to understand how our clients intend to live in, use, or invest in their homes, and we guide every decision with care, ensuring quality, value, and long-term confidence regardless of site complexity.
Trusted Leadership
Terravista Home is led by Lakshmi Narasiman (Laks) and supported by a dedicated team that takes responsibility for every detail of the build. Leadership is hands-on, ensuring clear guidance, consistent oversight, and thoughtful decision-making throughout each project.
Our team brings experience across planning, design coordination, and construction execution, working with a shared sense of ownership and care. We also collaborate with trusted architects, designers, engineers, and craftsmen whose standards match our own, allowing us to deliver quality and consistency at every stage.

Process
From First Idea to Final Walkthrough
Every Terravista Home project follows a clear, end-to-end process designed to bring confidence, clarity, and accountability from the earliest idea to final delivery. Our role is to guide each stage thoughtfully, ensuring decisions are well considered and carried through with care.
Homesite Selection & Early Planning
We begin by understanding the land, evaluating orientation, views, access, and long-term suitability. When needed, we assist with site discovery to ensure the home is planned in the right place.
Design & Architectural Planning
Design starts from the inside out, focusing on how the home will be lived in or used. We work closely with architects to align layout, flow, vision, scope, and timelines early.
Interior Planning & Material Selections
Interior planning is integrated early. We guide decisions on layouts, finishes, and materials to ensure design intent, function, and budget remain aligned throughout the project.
Budget Alignment & Cost Planning
Once plans are defined, we prepare a clear and transparent budget reflecting design and site conditions. We help balance quality and value while keeping expectations realistic and controlled.
Construction & Project Management
Construction is managed with hands-on oversight and disciplined coordination. We maintain clear communication, monitor progress closely, and address issues early to keep quality and timelines aligned.
Final Walkthrough & Home Delivery
As completion approaches, we focus on final details and quality checks. Each home is carefully reviewed and delivered ready to be lived in with confidence.
Ongoing Support
Our role continues beyond handover. We remain available after delivery to support homeowners and ensure the home continues to perform well over time.
