The Windward Story
The Creative Mind Behind our Brand
Our founder, Brian Haag, was destined to become a builder. Growing up in a small Wisconsin town where sons generally followed in their fathers’ footsteps, Brian’s father was a builder and a developer. His family moved to Cape Coral, Florida, when Brian was 16, and he then went on to study at the University of Florida and serve in the United States Navy.
However, homebuilding is in Brian’s DNA, and he soon launched his own development company based on his vision of collaborating with owners to build personal, original homes. His company grew into a large enterprise, producing over a thousand homes and subdivisions in master-planned communities. While the growth and success of his company were impressive, Brian was no longer able to work personally with every homeowner. Due to his increased responsibilities of running a big company, Brian had to rely on other resources and missed the first-hand experience of building a trusted and connected relationship with clients. His desire to connect with clients and take part in the creative process was the catalyst for the creation of Windward Construction.

Brian understands our region’s unique environment and its effect on home structures. Therefore, every building material and process ensures the enduring integrity and beauty of our Windward Signature Homes.
