3 Advantages of Modern Contemporary Floor Plans

The perfect indoor lighting can make all the difference when creating a cozy living room. An effective balance of practicality and personality is key.  A modern lamp near your workspace or an illuminated sign for extra fun over game areas would light up the room. 

 

Open Living Areas

Entertaining has never been easier with the ever-growing popularity of open, flowing living areas. From small families to big gatherings, these spaces are designed for people who want a comfortable yet stylish place to hang out and spend quality time together. You won't regret saying hello to this modern home trend!

In any home, the kitchen is a place to gather with loved ones and create delicious meals. Modern-day homes treat it as their shining star. So much so that when someone purchases an older property, they prioritize making this particular space shine by remodeling and breaking down walls.

Life is full of special moments and if you're the social type who loves a celebration, having a kitchen with an inviting island allows everyone to gather together in one space. Not only do moms and dads get to prepare dinner while visiting around this hub but it's also perfect for kids doing homework after all their hard work during the day.

With an open and flexible floor plan, you don't have to worry about compromising on privacy. You can easily create dedicated spaces for your guests or office in one area of the house while relishing a cozy master suite on the other side that opens up into a beautiful great room.

Our home is like a canvas ready for us to create our own masterpiece. The center of the house, where we come together as family and friends and each special corner in the house all have a unique purpose just waiting to be discovered.


Space Utilization

With a modern floor plan, creating one harmonious space should be the focus instead of having random areas scattered throughout. It's an artful way to make sure you're making the most out of every inch.

Older homes often feature winding hallways that can easily be seen as wasted space. However, by reimagining these areas into something more usable, such as a built-in desk or bookshelves, you'll gain valuable storage and your home will feel larger than ever. Don't let those extra inches go unused - make them work for you.

Creating more space in any room is simple - organization and storage are essential. Reimagine your kitchen, bathroom, or entryway by adding clever touches like extra drawers, cabinets, and shelves to help make life easier. When it comes down to design concepts, one of the most important principles should be functionality. That way everything has its place while still giving you ample opportunities for style expression.

Homeowners in sunny states like Florida, California, and Arizona know the joys of outdoor living. To maximize their space for entertaining family & friends, modern home designs incorporate large windows to create a seamless indoor/outdoor effect. Doing this can even turn patios into extra rooms. Natural light adds warmth and charm so you can soak up all that sunshine year-round.

New home floor plans offer the chance to get creative. Two different families can have a similar design, but their homes will look entirely unique. You never know what kind of style awaits when shopping for a newly built house.

 

Customization Options

Embrace your personal style and customize an open contemporary floor plan to suit your lifestyle - from a hobby room retreat to home theaters or gyms in the basement. With endless possibilities for design, you can create a dream home that truly feels like yours.

For large families, a super laundry is just the ticket. Not only can you handle all your clothing clean-up in one space, but there's also plenty of room to fold and iron too. Keeping up with everyone's clothes doesn’t have to be chaos. It might even become somewhat enjoyable now that it won't take over other parts of your home.

Having a walk-in pantry in the home is like having your very own personal grocery store. Whether you’re an aspiring gourmet chef who desires to keep all of their favorite delicacies close at hand or have a big family with kids who are always reaching for healthy snacks, this accessible space provides plenty of shelves that make it easy to stock up on sale items and canned goods.

When it comes to the ultimate convenience and keeping your home clean, a mudroom right off the kitchen can be just what you need. Whether you have an overflowing grocery cart after shopping trips or always seem to bring back muddy paws from outside adventures with pets, this unique space is perfect for adding personalized storage solutions that will fit seamlessly into every family's lifestyle. Unlock new possibilities in organization with a modern-day mudroom today.
