Our Definition
What Luxury Means When Every Home Is Already Custom
A lot of builders use the word “luxury” to describe a tier of upgrades — a premium package, a selection center with nicer options, an extra $50,000 of features added on top of a base home. That’s not what luxury means to us, because we don’t build base homes.
Every home Anasazi builds is fully custom. There is no floor plan we reuse. There is no finish menu with four options. There is no starting point other than your vision and your land. So when we talk about luxury, we mean something specific: it’s what happens when the budget allows for no compromises. The kitchen you actually want instead of a close approximation of it. The primary suite that feels like the spa you’ve always pictured. The outdoor living space that takes full advantage of 300 days of Eastern Washington sun. The custom millwork that doesn’t look like it was ordered from a catalog.
Luxury is not a price point. It is a level of specificity — the degree to which a home is completely, unreservedly yours. That’s what we build.
"When we say custom, we believe we mean custom — not you have four colors to pick from or you have four things to pick from. It's your house, your choices."
The Foundation of Quality
The Foundation of Quality The Craftsmanship Behind an Anasazi Luxury Home
Craftsmanship at the luxury level comes from three things: experience, accountability, and the right team. John and Stephen Worlund bring approximately 80 years of combined hands-on construction experience to every project — not managing from a boardroom, but on-site, involved, and accountable.
We’ve built in Fairbanks, Alaska. In North Dakota. In mountain climates in Idaho. Those experiences — where thermal bridging fails catastrophically, where insulation must be engineered rather than estimated — inform how we build every home in the Tri-Cities. The standards we apply in Richland or Pasco are shaped by what we’ve learned in much harder environments.
The subcontractor team we use has worked with us for approximately 8 years as a unified crew. Nearly 20 contractors, all vetted, all held to the same standards John and Stephen hold themselves to: quality, cleanliness, punctuality. On a luxury build, this consistency is not optional — because every finish is visible, every joint is inspected, and there is no builder-grade anything to hide behind.
What Luxury Looks Like
Luxury Features: A Room-by-Room Guide
Every item below is a choice, not a standard option. Here is a sample of what Anasazi luxury clients have designed into their homes — and what you can, too.
Designing for the Eastern Washington Lifestyle
A luxury home in the Tri-Cities is not the same as a luxury home in Seattle. The climate is different. The light is different. The way people use their outdoor space, their garage, their porch is different. And a builder who designs around the Eastern Washington reality builds a better home than one who applies a template from somewhere else.
The first thing to understand about the Tri-Cities is the sky. Eastern Washington gets approximately 300 sunny days per year. That number shapes how a luxury home should be designed: covered outdoor spaces are not optional accessories — they’re primary living areas for eight months of the year. East-facing porches give you morning shade and cool evenings. West-facing uncovered patios become unusable in July. We design around solar exposure because we live and build here.
The second reality is the summer heat. Richland, Pasco, and Kennewick regularly see temperatures above 100°F in July and August. A luxury home that isn’t mechanically sized for this climate is going to be expensive to cool and uncomfortable on the days that matter most. We don’t use builder-standard HVAC specifications. We calculate the load for your specific home, your specific orientation, and specify accordingly.
The third thing is the views. The Tri-Cities sits at the confluence of the Columbia and Snake Rivers in a wide high-desert basin, with Rattlesnake Mountain to the west, Horse Heaven Hills to the south, and the Columbia Plateau stretching north and east. From a lot on Badger Mountain South, Reata Ridge, or the Southridge hills above Kennewick, the view corridor is one of the most underappreciated luxury amenities in Washington State.
Finally: the lifestyle. The Tri-Cities has a unique concentration of highly educated, professionally accomplished families — many with Hanford and PNNL careers — who want a home that reflects the life they’ve built. They’re not impressed by showroom kitchens or catalog millwork. They want a home that was designed for them. That’s the client we build for.
