the idea factory.
A creative process rooted in the dedicated performance at influential offices in Austin, Los Angeles and Manhattan. Fifteen years of experience in high end custom homes and remodels, community planning, and urban revitalization. Eric Warner opened his first office here, serving the Lake Norman area. This studio is a setting that defies classification. The portfolio of homes produced by the idea factory is a collage of design concepts from the dreams of our clients.
