Brent is truly a great craftsman. I had the privilege of working for him 8 years ago in his cabinet shop, and I can't say enough nice things about his knowledge or having him as a boss

Cheers to the homeowners for letting us see this masterpiece.

As an architect, this is wonderful to see. Pride in construction and craftsmanship.

True craftsman, not many of them left these days. The quality is second to none

Man what a MASTERPIECE this is. Great effort from the people who laid their hands on that place.

Now this is a cool freakin' video Matt. Please do a lot more of these. This house and the details in it are way above 'top notch'. I bet the owners smile from ear to ear when they are in this home.

Very well done! This gorgeous house is a true “feather in your cap!” Much appreciation to the homeowner for letting us share the beauty of well-done construction and attention to detail!

Beautifully detailed and executed but, man, that entire sea of beige needs some color!

the rounded edges and sheer meticulousness of this house is incredible

What a beautiful gorgeous home, WOW 🤩 Absolutely love the detail that everyone working on this house strives for, AND it shows fantastically in the finish “product”.....the beautiful home, which “pops” with detail & beauty wherever one looks. Love these vids & showing ppl what “IS” possible & what can be done on homes/buildings when you have the right team assembled. Great job👍🏻

God I wish I could take my career to something like this, the wood work and finishing details are just absolutely insperational.

Everything Brent does is magnificent!

Amazing home, amazing craftsmanship and amazing attention to detail. Awesome episode.

What a treat / tour... thanks for sharing with us Matt!!! A gorgeous home...

I've seen a lot of amazing homes in my day, but this one is amazing.

This house is stunning. Kudos to all who made it happen.

Love how you are leveling up with these high end houses. Keep it up

Amazing craftsmanship. I don't usually have this kind of compliment .It is like a fine piece of furniture but with hundred times size of that scale

You're killin' me.. this is just awesome!

A kitchen for the kitchen.....what! That is truly baller status!

Amazing Build! Love the attention to detail on this house!

Finishing details are harder than Building the house it self! Specially in the USA! I have been to hundreds houses from 200k to 50m and always you will find that uneven surface or wall! I thought 100% perfection wasn’t an option over here till I saw this house! I have been following Brent for years, He got a very special rare talent! Great job loved it ! Thanks Matt for the amazing video

This home is art. Breathtaking.

Oufff, this is something, unbelievable! Big thumbs up.

I love the proportionality of window sizes to the overall structure.

In the 1960's - 1970's I was a union hod carrier, plaster tender and scaffold builder working with old school Italian plasterers from Italy in Boston. We built and refurbished ornate interiors of churches and museums, etc. using molds the Italians had brought from Italy.

Wow, I Love the level of quality, every project I have taken on in remodeling and repair projects I always ask myself what I can do to make my work outlast myself, I know that would be rare if it did happen but the level of thoughtfulness and quality are there and it definitely makes me feel great, I can imagine how it feels to be in this builders shoes, his work has a good chance at surviving the test of time. I Love how his minds works, I wish I had him as a mentor! I will definitely have his book one day when I can afford it, often times I put so much work in my jobs I loose myself in them and end up only making 5 dollars per hour.

Wow! That’s beautiful!

So many good ideas for my dream home haha thanks for the inspiration!

Absolutely Beautiful.

Thank you for sharing. Tell the homeowner thank you as well. Beautiful!

Beautiful details.

Even if one was born with wealth, raised around it, and wanted to commission a home build like this, it has to be exceedingly difficult to find the type of skilled trades people to actually execute this level of detail and quality. Glad to know some still exist. What a treat to watch. Thanks, as always, Mr. Risinger!

The amount of detail in every detail is astonishing. One masterpiece of a house.

House is straight 🔥. Well done.

Matts excited.. love it.. gets me excited

jesus... the details are amazing.

That is an amazing house, I love it.

That level of detail takes SO much time. I'm trying to wrap my head around how long it must've taken to do all the finish work on the interior, if the plaster alone was five months.

The stainless steel kitchen and molding looks awesome

Most excellent house!

Gorgeous

Man, Matt you can make anything sound exciting 🙂. But that was an amazing house for sure!

Holy Cow....that stainless steel kitchen is awesome. Detail is....*passed out*....

This house is unbelievable I can’t fathom the amount of time from designing and finishing and the unreal cost that must be but totally worth it

Next level!

That is a _GORGEOUS_ home! I want to add my thanks to the owners for allowing the tour. I'm in the northern Mid-West though (Michigan) and a house in that general style wouldn't really fit with our snow loads. THAT said, I could really see that sort of finishing technique (interior and exterior) applied to an ICF built home.

Beautiful project! Obviously there's a generous budget behind it. But if we could bring the care to craftsmanship and design to our more modest homes there is still so much we could do to make them satisfying and beautiful.

I love the stainless steel kitchen cabinets

awesome work

This builder makes me even proud to be a Texan born and living close to Ft Worth!

Brent crushing as usual

There is no one even close in the Orlando market that can do that kind of work...you are lucky to get them to even show up at all now days....

Brent's project casa could be named "La Ultima" but that would be bragging, something that Texans never do ;) Really, that masterpiece speaks for itself, and needs no such title.

I can't stop looking at Matt's yoga jeans! Cute!

The kitchen next to the kitchen!

Sweet!

It's definitely not my style, but the craftsmanship and attention to detail is obvious. Well done!

Beautiful Home. Would you care to share some details about the Venetian plaster techniques? For example, what products did you use and what colors. I like the subtlety of the the Venetian plaster effect you achieved. It is not to mottled nor is it too shiny. I find that some applications of Venetian plaster are too gaudy for my taste, but you have achieved a nice depth effect that is not over powering.

Top top notch. Love it that Brent brings the craft to North Texas.

Lots of questions. Did they use a cementitious base layer first or go straight to lime based with marble dust aggregate? Did they make their own? Did you use Larsen plasterweld? Did you use blue board, green board or regular drywall?

A full kitchen within a kitchen.

I know a guy in Havana Illinois who is a plaster man who did his kitchen in Venetian, It's not cheap, 20+ years ago it was $400 a 5 gallon bucket, not to mention what it cost to apply.... Cameras just don't do it justice. You really gotta be there.

Great presentation, thank you. I’m wondering if builder used the Venetian plaster in the showers and do you have footage of such.

Matt, haven’t seen any videos on your personal house in a while. How’s it coming?

I love custom home's

I was going to Venetian Plaster in my house but really didn’t call for that expense. So I came up with a mixture of material that mimicked plaster over the primed drywall and is so much cheaper then any plaster or other fux product. Has lasted 15 years, no cracks, no dusting etc.. through earthquakes and life with kids. I usually do this in track homes where the cost saving is important, it much cheaper than alternatives and really turns out great, little rougher than plaster or Venetian plaster and doesn’t polish well. If the customers want it like the video house then we just use the real thing. Anyhow, my point is there are options, if your creative, to get a high end look without breaking the bank. Great house in video wish I stayed in custom homes, but I was young and ambitious easy money elsewhere. Being a GC isn’t a scalable business model. Service and specialties are. Stay healthy.

Love the detail in the house, Can you provide a link to walk through the steps on how to plaster some of the more unique features? I will look at other videos from Brent to see this level of work and to see if he is chewing gum in other videos ;-)

PS Great Channel

I put people in plaster splints and casts sometimes at work, although we mostly have gone to fiberglass now. Pretty much the same thing as this though.

Matt, could you please show more natural building materials that can be used to replace housing in areas where the fires have hit hardest? There are companies making MDF and other building materials out of various plants, seeds, etc. Anything more sustainable and affordable for the average person seems more important than mansions, as beautiful as they are.

Fletch eloquently put it in his 1984 classic, “hmm, I like what you’ve done to the place. Must have cost you hundreds.” This is incredible

Nice pad.

Out of curiosity, why didn't they just do actual masonry and plaster like would be done in southern Spain, rather than wood frame with drywall? Would it not be up to US code? Too expensive?

I am an electrician and the reasons i would suspect is 1. You need room in the wall cavities for insulation. 2 you need somewhere to run all of your utilities.3 wood comes to very nice clean corners that you can air and water seal.

@NoRoads2AllRoads

@@bradswensen117 all those are done in any Spanish or Portuguese house. Masonry bricks are thermal insulated already. Thermal masonry bricks have an R value of about R-15 nowadays and more. Space for utilities, you carve pathways on brick for all electrical and pipes, and cover that up then with masonry cement/plaster then. As for air seal, nothing beats a full masonry/concrete house. The only areas you need to worry with air sealing is with good quality windows. Not to mention sound, you can't hear a thing fro outside fi you use good windows. As for water seal, well ... it's water proof pretty much.
