SEE FOR YOURSELF WHAT SETS US APART

Our history

Building homes is in our genes. Like some of life’s other greats—pasta, wine and leather—our knowledge and experience was founded in Italy with great-grandfather Samuel Croselli. Samuel passed on his knowledge to his son, who passed it on to his son, and so on to Moderno's current owner, Michael Palmer — Samuel's great grandson. The first Calgary home built by Michael's great grandfather has stood the test of time and today, houses Mission Tattoo on 4th Street and 21st Avenue S.W.

What sets
us apart

In a busy housing market like Calgary, we know that you have many choices when it comes to selecting a builder. We’d love to share with you why we think you should choose Moderno.

Long History of Homebuilding

Long History of Homebuilding

We didn’t happen upon building by chance. It’s been in our family for generations. Knowledge, wisdom and pride of craftsmanship has been passed down from generation to generation, instilling in us a deep passion and capability for building.

Craftmanship

Craftmanship

We’ve said it before but we’ll say it again: Our craftsmanship truly sets us apart. Custom millwork and cabinetry are built on site by some of the best artisans and tradespeople in the business. We don’t build from kits – everything is designed, crafted and installed by hand by professionals.

Structural Integrity

Structural Integrity

Moderno owner, Mike Palmer, is an engineer who believes that a foundation of the home sets the basis for the entirety of the build. As such, we take great pride in the structural integrity of our Moderno homes. Not only are our foundations built using ICF foundation blocks, but our entire homes are built using fully insulated concrete.

Communities of Living

Communities of Living

Our signature communities of living allow home owners to experience not only a home, but an entire neighbourhood built by us. For many, this provides great peace of mind, knowing that you’re surrounded by like-minded homeowners seeking quality builds and a similar neighbourhood design aesthetic, raising overall home values for all residents.
