One of the benefits of prefab home architecture is that you can take advantage of a well-honed system. Turkel Design offers a selection of puntos de partida del diseño, each of which can be modified to suit your lifestyle. Adapting an existing design has several benefits: it shortens the overall process, increases predictability by leveraging proven design elements, and reduces the intimidation that homeowners can feel when starting with a blank slate.
What?s the best way to navigate this Design Library, and choose the right starting point for you? We recommend beginning by answering a couple of key questions:
Where are you building your home?
Are you building on a small, urban, or suburban lot? Or are you embarking on a rural retreat, perhaps near a lake or a mountain? A design like the Axioma 2610 balances the desire for indoor/outdoor living with the need for privacy from nearby neighbors, relying on elements such as a secluded patio.
For your rural retreat, think about the qualities of the land. If you are building on a slope, Axioma 3250 is designed to integrate with the steepness of the hillside, creating opportunities for additional livable space such as roof decks. Axioma 2750, meanwhile, is another design for building on a slope, with a lower level that tucks into the hill. Does your land face a point of interest, such as a lake or a mountain range, that creates an inspiring view in a single direction? Axioma 2790 is ideal for sites like this. If you?re looking to capture views in multiple directions, Axioma 2650 may be a better fit.
Who will live in your home?
Thinking about the people who will live in the home can help guide you to a decision. In addition to who they are, you?ll want to think about how they plan to live there.
For example, perhaps you?re thinking of building a home that feels appropriately sized for a couple, but which can also accommodate visiting friends or family for overnight stays. A home such as the Axioma 2390 addresses this need with an L-shaped design that creates privacy for the primary suite, with two bedroom suites upstairs and the potential to a convert the main-level den into a fourth bedroom.
Conversely, designs such as Axioma 3250 o Axioma 2650 may be better suited to full-time multigenerational living. Keep in mind, however, that every design starting point is customizable, and can be scaled to accommodate the number of bedrooms (or any other room) that you need.
Every design is a custom design
Regardless of which starting point you choose, Turkel Design will guide you through an proceso de diseño interactivo that customizes your home for the life you want to live. We can also design a fully custom home for you?our portafolio includes examples of projects that did not originate from a starting point, such as Granja Mulmur Hills y Aspen Valley Home.
Regardless of how you begin, your home will be planned with thoughtful design principles, and executed using high-quality materials and a systematized process that builds predictability into the cost, timeline, and quality of the project.
