With the rapid changes in technology the key is to keep spaces as flexible as possible! Some design trends to watch for:
Tablets, SmartPhones, Phablets have made the home office moveable to any room of the house.- Dining is part of the great room or the kitchen has double islands-one for food prep and another for seating. It is more interesting to look at the view than the cabinets.
- Home theaters are wavering as a TV fully integrated with the Internet in the family room seem to work for many.
- Garages also offer flexible space for hobbies and storage.
- Pets need to be considered as well. A doggie door to a secure outdoor space, litter boxes, etc. Our pets have inside entry and garage access which are totally out of sight. Dog showers are also popular or a hand spray with a tiled area.
