While it's true that their presentation is striking, it's the intricacy and subtle variation in this series of designs that gives each its own impressive character. It begins with a definitive sense of arrival in the foyer. In one of the selections, this also serves as the entry point to an open den, professional enough to host co-workers or clients and private enough for a personal study or work-from-home venue. In both designs, polished flooring continues beyond the entry and down the hallway before emerging in the great room, a sophisticated space as comfortable for hosting a cocktail party as it is for relaxing on family movie nights. A savvy L-shape sets the nearby dining space and kitchen nearby, where a central grand island benchtop creates a functional focal-point for entertaining. Two walls of sliding glass link both the great room and the separate dining space with the signature outdoor room at the far corner of these homes. With its all-season allure, the outdoor room marries fresh air, natural light and expanded volume throughout the main level indoor living space. For those seeking to balance this openness with space providing more intimacy, one plan in this series introduces an enclosed multi-purpose room through a stylish set of French doors - directly across from the great room.
