Residential Design: Back   Home


Philosophy:

Our design process for all design is exemplified in residential design. The design of a home should be the result of thorough analysis of the selected home site, the needs of the family, and the budget established for the home. The sun, views, access, utilities, and natural conditions of a site are critical in planning a home design. Hobbies, pets, ages, size of, and future plans for a family are critical elements in a home design. The family's budget is obviously important, we would never waste the time designing something that our client can't afford to build, or live in afterwards.

To copy a design from another family or a book of generic designs is only appropriate if you have exactly the same site and family. Of course, certain ideas, spatial relationships, and appearances can be communicated by showing other homes and other designs.
