ESTABLISH BASELINE GOALS AND BUILD AROUND THEM
Decide the basics first. Then, your home designer can help you fill in the blanks. Decide how many bedrooms and bathrooms you’ll need. Then, decide how many other rooms you want to include in your floor plan. Decide your ideal budget and list what view opportunities you want to optimize.

FLOOR-TO-CEILING HOME DESIGN
Intentional design means that not an inch of your home’s square footage is wasted or overlooked. Designing intentionally is always our goal with any client, but we especially love working with clients who share our vision. Once we have your baseline goals in mind, like which rooms you want to include in your floor plan, we can work on intentionally designing around those rooms.
DESIGNING FOR TASKS AND ACTIVITIES
Designing around daily tasks, activities, and familial goals is our objective with intentional design.
Here are a few examples:
If you are a coffee or tea drinker, we may opt to create a beverage station in your kitchen. If you love drinking coffee in your bedroom in the morning, we may even opt to create a beverage station or cafe bar in your master bedroom suite.
If you work remotely, we may want to consider creating a home office with a patio and lots of large windows. If your partner runs a small business or side hustle from home, we may want to create a second office with plenty of storage in a separate wing of the house.
If you are considering growing a family, it may be a good idea to have a second bedroom on the second floor that can serve as a nursery and a few bedrooms upstairs for older children.
If you have aging family members to care for, you may want to consider adding a mother-in-law suite.

KEEP IN MIND THE ADDED COST
When establishing a budget, remember that customizing every inch of your home may cost more than your average custom home design. It may be helpful to create a list of your wants and needs and go from there.
In the long run, building intentionally will boost your home’s value and improve your well-being, so it's worth the extra money spent.
A HOME TO LOVE FOREVER
Intentional design means building a home you will love forever. We can design your home to grow with and adjust to your family’s needs. The result will be a highly livable modern home design that you can be satisfied with.
