House Plans For Multi-Purpose Millennial Style

The world is evolving and so is the way we live. Excessive square footage and inefficient home designs are on their way out. Organized, multi-purpose spaces within the urban hub are becoming the norm in terms of millennial house plans and home design. Creatively having access to everything you need within a streamlined and minimalist design is becoming one of the new hallmarks of this design era. Architecturally Distinct Solutions can make your Okanagan tiny home dreams come true.

Millennial Home Design Desires

Affordability and efficiency are among the top ideas that come to mind with millennial house plans. Living in a smaller dwelling space means utilizing what you have to the fullest. Creative storage including hidden ceiling beds, sliding walls, dual capacity workstations and multi-purpose furniture are becoming more popular. Lower footprint living offers many advantages. Helping our planet out with renewable building materials and recycling where possible dramatically saves on numerous levels.

Smaller House Plans Equal More Freedom

Consuming less electricity, water and utilities by changing our daily habits can translate into enormous financial savings. Having to heat a giant house or having an abundance of windows that need to be regularly maintained or replaced, soon adds up. Millennial’s are entering homeownership looking for lower maintenance, smaller spaces that they can completely personalize and enjoy with less stress. Smart home designs feature strategically placed windows and doors to help you maximize daylight while mitigating heat loss. ADS is always excited to hear what our clients have in mind. Having the latest SMART home technology and the ability to control heat, lights, electronics and every feature from the touch of a phone is also a top priority. Enjoy more financial freedom by spending less on bills and transportation due to a tinier footprint within a centralized location. Passive House design services are now proudly offered by ADS and can help you transform your next build!

Personal Touches In Smart Home Design

Customizing a small space takes some soul-searching in order to be truly successful. Evaluating your habits, your goals, your hopes and your dreams are essential for creating a smaller space that works. Understanding your preferences and taking an honest stock of your current lifestyle can help you negotiate the finer details to incorporate into your home design. Architecturally Distinct Solutions looks forward to exceeding our client expectations. Our professional team has the home design solutions you are seeking for every size.

Certified Passive House Designer

LIME Architecture Inc. is proud to offer “Certified Passive House Designer” services as part of the team’s ongoing commitment to environmentally responsible building design. Matt Johnston’s certification is timely as building codes begin to adopt what is known as the “Energy Step Code” with the ultimate goal of ensuring all new homes designed and built by 2032 are net zero ready through progressively more energy efficient homes designs (steps). Net zero is the idea that a home produces at least as much energy as it consumes, and the team at LIME is embracing the movement toward energy efficiency in home design and building and invites anyone considering an energy efficient home visit our offices to discuss in more detail.
