My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Like the simple columns, stone and flat porch ceiling. Also like the beam over the column capitals and am a big fan of the rafters peaking out over the beam. This wood detailing could be cedar vs. painted of course.
