Arch Design Homes

They started out building custom homes in the Hallbrook neighborhood. They also developed properties with Don Julian for several years. During this time, they built the Mission Reserve and Woodland Reserve developments. Since then, they have shifted their focus from new construction to home remodeling.
Gahagan-Eddy Building Company
Gahagan-Eddy Building Company was founded in 2002 by Bryce Gahagan and Mark Eddy in Prairie Village, Kansas. They met just out of college while working for a Fortune 500 builder. They wanted to create a company that would better cater to their client’s needs.
Gahagan Eddy’s philosophy is based on a quote from Aristotle, “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.”
They pride themselves on excellence and focus on doing every project to the highest standard possible. The two men find that they have very different personalities but almost identical work ethics.
