There was a time when kitchens pretty much had a single purpose: Food preparation for the family. As a result, they were no-nonsense rooms tucked away at the back of the house and cut off from guests. Visitors didn't venture into your kitchen, what mattered was what came out of it. Today, however, kitchens are the heart of the home. Families gather in the kitchen to talk, socialize and spend time together. We often eat in the kitchen, (or an adjoining area) as well as entertain guests. Instead of being tucked away out of sight, kitchens are showcased and blend seamlessly into a dining area or a family room.

Basements used to simply be extra space for storage, electrical wiring, and other more functional purposes. Over the past few decades, however, basements have become the perfect extra space in a home for guest rooms, living spaces, multi-generational suites, game rooms, home gyms, and more. That's one of the reasons that basement remodels have become a popular remodeling project in North Shore Chicago homes. Basement remodeling opens a new world of opportunities in your existing home! All of the benefits of adding new space to your room and none of the hassle of expanding your home footprint or shopping for a new home altogether.

Did you know that the bathrooms in your home are among the most trafficked rooms? For some reason, most bathrooms are still thrown together with whatever leftover space and design there is in the budget and floor plan. Imagine if you had time to pause your day. What if you had your own spa oasis within your very own four walls? Every bathroom deserves to be carefully crafted - from start to finish. The elements that come together to make a bathroom feel thoughtful and well-designed can be challenging, but that's why you want a Design Build Team on your side.

In the 20-plus years that I've been working in home construction in the Chicago area, I've noticed that many area residents find a home they really like. The location is ideal for them and the basic structure of the house is great. It's almost perfect. They really like the home, but they don't love it because there are elements throughout the house that either don't meet their needs or don't match their sense of style. Perhaps that sounds familiar to you. If that's the case, how do you go about planning your North Shore whole home remodel so that you end up with a home you love?

Home additions come in many shapes and sizes. No addition is the same - each family we build for has their own needs, desires, style, and goals in mind. In-law suites, new baby rooms, and expanded kitchens are the most common home additions, but there are dozens of other reasons why a homeowner may want to expand their home. Building a new home addition is slightly different from just remodeling. For example, you have to take into account any exterior modifications that need to be made, such as siding material, roofing, property lines, HOA codes, or any other consideration that needs to be made when adding on to a home.
