Better By Design LLC was founded in 2001, in New Albany, Indiana by Bob Linnert. Since that time Better By Design LLC has produced over 2000 house plans for over 140 builders and literally hundreds of homeowner clients. Bob was working as a Designer for a company that designed and built roof and floor truss systems, I-joist floor systems and engineered beams. As part of his job he used numerous house plans every day. One thing that Bob noticed repeatedly was that most plans had conflicting or missing dimensions, load bearing points and walls did not stack from one floor to another. And often the roof planes were designed incorrectly meaning the actual home looked different than the plans. Realizing the need for quality, builder tested home plans, Better By Design LLC was born!
