These are the special things that set our homes apart and make them unique to us, the "No one else has this." It's how we get the passion for building a new home and tweaking it with our own ideas. Its not just wood, tile stone and glass, its more, its who we are and who we have become. Look closely and seet the finger prints of those who bring a home to life. The owner, designer and the builder who puts it all together.
I just loved the idea and color that made this special and had to share it. It captures the essence of our goals which we all strive for excelence in our daily lives. Its one example of the new ideas that are now coming faster everyday in our home building world and I can't help but be impressed. Yet its only a laundry room, what could be special there, yet I would bet that the ones who use it have their hearts lifted up by the surrounding while doing laundry chores for the family.
When I look back over my career as a builder, sometime I reflect and wonder, " What has influenced me to think about such things and design and decorating. Once construting a home was a great achievement by itself, the ability to use the tools in a way that produces Quality work that speaks for itself. How did we become aware of a customers desires and wishes and most of them have nothing to do with the sturcture we build called a house, we desire to make a home, and that takes more than sticks and bricks. How? I think its one thing and that is listening very early on to the heart beat of the customers that we work with. Somehow it now is the focal point of our process that drives what we do and what our customers have taught us.
So when you think about the daunting task of building a home, think about the wonderfull home you will create and in the end looking back at the effort of getting it all right exactly as you dreamed it.
For the most part a new home owner is usually glad they traded a few short months for a lifetime of satisfaction and enjoyment.
