Building
Your Future

Brixen was formed in 2019 by Alexander D’Orazio and Andrew Iacobelli.

The partnership confirmed their common values – commitment to quality, desire to build communities, and the underlying belief that people come first.

Brixen is determined to integrate these values into each project. Together, Alexander and Andrew hold over 20 years of residential development and construction knowledge. Each of their developments are delivered within budget and within promised schedules without sacrificing their core values.

In just a few short years, Brixen has achieved many goals and in 2022 was nominated as a finalist for BILD’s prestigious Home Builder of the Year, Mid/High-Rise award in the company of giants of the industry; a ringing endorsement of the company’s meteoric accomplishments.
