Showcase Kitchens: Partners we depend on |
 |
|
Our valued collaborator, Erica Caserta at Showcase Kitchens |
|
While there is a time to build custom cabinets from scratch, when it comes to planning a new or remodeled kitchen the options available from cabinet manufacturers provide exceptional versatility, high quality, clever organizing features, and diverse style and finish options. Erica and her team are experienced specialists with a depth of product knowledge and practical experience that no amount of online research and shopping can come close to. They are also great people.
Here's how they help and why we trust their reliable guidance.

Why Cost per Square Foot is a confusing measure |
 |
|
When thinking about building or remodeling folks are rightly eager to understand the answer to an important question: What's possible at what cost? The common assumption is that this can be reasonably answered by determing the cost per square foot for the proposed project. It's not! Or at least it's not that simple. There are a lot of dials to adjust on our cost control panel, beginning with a not always obvious question: What's a square foot?

Great Spaces Every Home Deserves: Inviting Entries |
|
 |
|
You meet the world at at your front door. You want to be able to welcome friends and family at this entry, offer them shelter outside, and enough space to exchange greetings or bid farewell indoors without feeling cramped. This means first and foremost, that folks need to intuitively recognize where to enter. The entry shapes expectations, which you hope are met when you welcome them inside. The best entries also serve your family as graciously as your guests, including nearby space that meet the functional needs of coming and going.

Where Can You Build? The search for land |
 |
|
We keep an eye out for land that could be suitable for building a new Zero Energy Home in a desirable location. This month we're spotlighting two lots on Haynes Road in Avon. Located in a wooded suburban neighborhood near schools, these two lots have the advantage of access to all utilities - no additional costs for well or septic sytems.

Your Guide to Designing and Building a Better Home |

|
We're in the Better business. This is your mobile friendly guide to designing and building a better home. It walks you through the ways in which we think and build differently to create homes of lasting beauty that harvest the sun to produce as much energy as they use. It describes both the process, and the results: barefoot comfort, health, durability and energy security that you just can't get building for the world as it was. It's an invitation to Build Better. |
