Some Ideas to Consider …

  • Open the Door to These New Trends

    When you’re planning your custom home there are a lot of decisions that must be made to ensure the design is cohesive and aligns with your personal style. For many homeowners the selection of both interior and exterior doors seems simple. But in reality, you can significantly enhance the look of your home with unique and innovative doors.

    Today’s hottest trends for doors include:

    • Flexible doors- Doors with panels that slide behind one another or accordion style doors give you the flexibility to open up spaces to your exacting preferences.

    • Barn doors- Attached to sliders on both the ceiling and floors, barn doors elevate both form and function in a home. Consider adding visual interest by painting the door a bold focal color.
