Modern homes,
built with intention.
ERBA Build is a Los Angeles luxury build studio founded by Ernest, helping clients create refined, modern homes from concept to completion.
Clarity in every stage of the build.
We help you find the right lot, collaborate with top-tier builders and architects, and guide the full journey from land to move-in ready home.
A clear path to your next home.
At ERBA Build, we guide you through every stage of creating a custom or new-construction home in Los Angeles — from finding the right land to planning, designing, and building with the city’s leading teams.
Find
Identify the right lot or teardown in Cheviot Hills, Pacific Palisades, Brentwood, and surrounding Westside neighborhoods, with an eye for design potential and long-term value.
Build
Collaborate directly with vetted builders and architects, including Arzuman Brothers — with Ernest guiding decisions, timelines, and communication throughout the process.
Move
Once your home is complete, we can assist with styling, photography, and selling or leasing the property, so your build performs as beautifully as it lives.
Built and in progress.

Why build instead of buy?
For many clients, building offers a more tailored, forward-looking way to live in Los Angeles — with design, efficiency, and long-term value working together from day one.
Personalized design
Create a home that fits your life — from morning rituals and work routines to hosting, wellness, and family needs.
Modern systems & efficiency
Build with current codes, energy-efficient systems, EV readiness, and integrated smart home technology.
Financial advantage
Building can unlock equity, reduce long-term maintenance, and offer a better relationship between cost and quality than many resales.
A better way to live
Thoughtful architecture, natural light, and wellness spaces create a home that is not only beautiful, but deeply livable.
Thoughtful. Minimal. Intentional.
ERBA Build blends architectural clarity with modern craftsmanship. Led by Ernest, the studio focuses on homes that feel calm, warm, and resolved — spaces that respond to how you actually live.
Our work begins with understanding site potential and your goals, then assembling the right team to design and execute the build with care. Throughout the process, you have a single point of contact and a clear perspective at every step.

Collaborate with architects and builders on layout, flow, materials, and details that shape daily life.
Build execution
Work with vetted builders, receive regular updates, and walk the site together at key milestones.
Completion & move-in
Optional styling and a full walkthrough to ensure your home feels ready on day one.
Sell or lease (optional)
