The default build directory for CMake based projects opened from CLion without CMakePresets.json or already configured CMake project build directory will default to:
cmake-build-debug
cmake-build-release
cmake-build-relwithdebinfo
cmake-build-minsizerel
cmake-build-default (when adding more than 4 profiles of different build types already exists)
This defers from the regular build directory that is conventionally used for CMake configuration output directory.

Notice the Build directory field that specifies the location of build results. The default folders are cmake-build-debug for Debug profiles and cmake-build-release for Release profiles. You can always set other locations of your choice.
