Recently I shared a post about designing hallways with multi function where in part I spoke about the need for bathroom floor plans to include windows. For this week’s post, I’m elaborating on the importance of including windows, specifically in private toilet rooms for primary suites, ensuite bathrooms and shared bathrooms.

Read MoreTo really understand the potential of space and to get the most out to it, especially when it comes to remodels, it’s like being on a quest of discovering hidden treasures. While working at the drawing board, the process requires the designer to move along a continuum of design development; typically starting with the most obvious, and conservative solutions, and then from there, letting each new floor plan design guide them to the next.

Read MoreI haven’t shared much about the Citrus Point Project, a custom home that will be built in Mesa, Arizona, other than including tidbits in a couple Design Studio Week in Review post. But that’s not because I’m not excited about the project - quite the contrary! I literally had goosebumps last week, when James, the lead architect on the project (from Hebdon Studios) did a virtual walk-around during a project meeting of the exterior of the home. No detail has been overlooked. It’s so good!
