Bringing their perspective to a wider audience, Adam and twin brother Ben will be launching their constructionfocused YouTube channel, This Grand House, in early 2026. As he reveals:“ We’ re planning on releasing our first few videos on the channel very soon. The intent behind This Grand House is simple but meaningful: to build better builders and to better educate clients so projects are healthier, more successful, and more enjoyable for everyone involved.
