Engineering experience
you can actually talk to
Grand Designs launched in April 2026 after a company-wide layoff opened an unexpected door. Rather than search for another seat at someone else’s table, Myles built his own — guided by faith and built on nine years of real engineering experience.
Every file Grand Designs delivers carries that floor-level knowledge: tolerances that can actually be held, prints oriented for strength, fixtures designed for the way people really work.
Faith-Driven
Honest timelines, honest pricing, honest work — no shortcuts.
Craftsman Standard
Each deliverable measured against the best work we’ve done.
Client Ownership
Your IP is yours. Never shared, resold, or reproduced.
Honest Marketing
Trust earned through demonstrated work, not inflated claims.
Real tools, real experience — Grand Designs brings shop-floor knowledge to every design.
Experience that compounds
Every role added a layer. The shop floor taught DFM. GM taught scale. DYNA taught the full product lifecycle.
