Open‑Plan Living with Defined Zones
While open‑plan spaces feel airy, they can sometimes feel chaotic. Use subtle floor‑level changes, built‑in shelving, or varying ceiling heights to delineate zones without breaking the flow.
Kitchen as the Social Hub
A large island, high‑end appliances, and a walk‑through pantry make the kitchen the heart of the home. Add a breakfast nook that looks out onto a garden to keep the vibe light and inviting.
Strategic Bedroom Placement
Master suites are best positioned on the quieter side of the house, with private access to a bathroom and a walk‑in closet. Guest bedrooms can be tucked near a secondary bathroom, perhaps sharing a small lounge for privacy.
Home Office Ready for the Future
Even if you’re not telecommuting now, a dedicated office with sound‑proofing, ample natural light, and built‑in storage can future‑proof your home. Consider a sliding glass door that can open to a patio for a breath of fresh air during breaks.
