I review floorplans constantly. One of the biggest difficulties people have is that they don't know what they're looking out for. They don't understand how the lines on the page will translate to a finished home. Here are some of the main things I look out for when reviewing the lines on a page. Let me know if any of this hits home for you. KX

I get asked about the difference between these 2 materials all the time. Here is a breakdown. I hope this helps KX

HI all! I hope you're all well! I have received some images back from the photographer of one of my most recent jobs and wanted to share. Happy to answer any questions! KX

If there is an item to splurge on in your build or reno., it’s on natural stone. There is nothing artificial that even close to compares (There are many different types of stone you can choose that will suit your life) but the beauty, depth and character are second to none. This piece was locked on today and I am one happy designer 🫶🏻

Hi Kate❤️ I’m currently building our beach home in California. I’m torn about the slanted roof above the dining that creates a large triangle dropdown. I’m debating creating an even lower soffit all the way(drawn in blue at 9’ high) between the the kitchen+great room(new build) & dining (existing old roof) to square off the triangle so we don’t see that huge triangle in the new build area. But then we won’t get the grand kitchen + great room ceiling instant reveal when we enter the house from the foyer. Our architect suggests to embrace the old structure because we can’t fool people to think that part of dining has a low and slanted ceiling, so might as well just make the entire home grand and open. I understand the super open floorplan is almost over; I just would like to make the right decision on if I should just leave the current beam at 11’ not trying to separate the 2 areas and simply embrace that eyesore? Or i should square off and drop the soffit for a formal divider between the old and new build? Any advice would be appreciated xx
