Home for the way you live…and will live.
Friday, December 17, 2010 at 8:40AM Homes are much more than a financial investment. Their presence in a neighborhood; the ability to personalize the interior and exterior; the memories created by events rooted in the home; these make the home an emotional investment. These investments are what I take to heart in my designs.
I have designed a new home series especially for Boise called the Modern Collection. The goal is to create floor plans that are suitable for your current life style, with adaptability built in so as to accommodate the changes in life. Each plan includes a large central living space with a three point living arrangement, the kitchen facing the family room, (think restaurant display kitchen), and a large dining space to the side and part of the kitchen, (the space I like to call the café part of the kitchen). Then I take the bedrooms and split them up around the house as private spaces. Always, at least one bedroom is designed with built-in flexibility for a variety of purposes; traditional bedroom, den, dining room, home office, workout room, and the like. I have included a third bathroom, so that a second private suite is an option. To cap it off, they have wider hallways and doors, lever style handles, single level living, and the garage is three cars wide.
There you have it, a home big enough to embrace a growing or changing family. The spaces do not have to be left unused as the family evolves. There is comfortable room for adult guests, long or short term. The features and layout were done with sensitivity to users if mobility becomes a concern. The intention is to provide you with a home that can accommodate your life changes, so those investments in your home both emotional and financial don’t have to be traded away when your housing needs change.
