Beautiful House Designs

Seeing the finished house, with big windows overlooking the river and views from every room, I'm more convinced than ever of the importance of professional house plans. Jenny's house is small, no more than 1000 square feet, but because of the excellent design it doesn't feel small. Everything has a place; no space is wasted, but nothing is cramped. She has the ease and convenience of a small house without feeling boxed in.

All houses, not just small houses, benefit from quality designs. I'm renting a house right now and it just makes no sense. The entryway and living room as so dark they are not very inviting. And there's no air circulation in the dining room, so we're all sweating by the second course. There's a window in the shower, so the window frame is rotting away. Very bad planning.

One good thing about this house is the landscaping in the front yard. My rental house is in a hot climate, so the big banyan trees provide valuable natural cooling. This brings up two points about house design: landscaping makes a difference and energy-saving design is essential these days.
