Trendy 2016

A new year means new styles and trends of home design and layout! We rounded up a few of our favorite ideas for the new year, and are busily daydreaming of our dream homes.



1. A Warm Welcome

A popular 2016 trend is heating your entrance way floors! We love how this picture above utilizes the farmhouse style entrance way, which is also a 2016 trend that we're looking forward to! Imagine coming in from the chilly weather to an organized front hall (and warm feet!).





2. A Lack of Screens

An emerging trend for your living space comes as a bit of a surprise! A living area that does not feature a screen or form of technology is projected to be very popular this year. We love the idea of disconnecting, and featuring the living room as a warm place to gather for good friends and good conversations!






3. A Workhorse Island with Room

A common complaint from homeowners is the lack of space in the kitchen. We love this island - with a sink! This allows for more storage, and even the possibility to install an additional appliance! We can't stop picturing the ease of  Thanksgiving clean up with more than one sink! Visit our Dream Kitchens Pinterest page for more inspirations!

Light Up Your Kitchen

You can have the most beautiful kitchen in the world, but if it's poorly lit, you'd never know - what a shame! Avoid this common problem by installing appropriate lighting in your kitchen and dining area. There are two questions to ask yourself when you're adding lighting in to your kitchen: what kind of lighting will I choose, and where will I decide the lighting should be?

What Is Panelization?

     Panelization is the process of building wall and floor panels and roof trusses off site, in a environmentally controlled factory, where skilled craftsman, with more than enough experience, are accurately assembling panel quickly and efficiently.       The time period to frame a panelized home, is significantly shorter than that of traditional, stick-framed houses. This means that your brand new home is weather tight sooner, lengthening the life of your home, and ultimately shortening the entire building process.      With panel construction is happening on in a factory, rather than on site, this means less material waste on site. This is another cost savings benefit that also results in a cleaner job site.      Even though the panels and trusses are built in a factory, doesn't mean that you're sacrificing the customization of your new home.
