You can truly gauge the effectiveness of your design plan when you are hosting a celebration or have everyone home for the holidays. A well-designed house can be the difference between peace or calamity at Christmas dinner and zen or zany parents over the school break. Luckily, Swanbuild’s clever plans will not disappoint, nor have everyone underfoot.
Multiple living areas: The majority of Swanbuild designs incorporates more than one living space to cater for different ages and tastes. A designated playroom for the kids and quiet retreat, for example, will encourage family members to use particular spaces for relevant activities, and hopefully, keep the peace.
Outdoor areas: Likewise, an outdoor area gives family members more options. They can eat and gather together or separately depending on their mood or the circumstance. For a big celebration like Christmas and New Year, you can combine dining areas to accommodate the visiting crowd.
Walk in or butler pantries: When everyone is home and hungry you can bet that the kitchen will see plenty of traffic. Walk in and butler pantries mean there is literally more room to move, prepare and store. When you are hosting and catering, the bigger pantry also means you can dump dishes where they won’t be seen and get back to more important things, like catching up with family and friends.
Multiple toilets and bathrooms: Unlike many traditional homes, Swanbuild Homes usually include an ensuite and bathroom and occasionally an additional powder room. For big families, especially with teenagers or young children, this is a blessing. When you have a large party for the day or guests staying overnight, having several amenities is also vital to the smooth running of the household.
Swanbuild homes are not only ideal for everyday living but also on the occasions when you have large gatherings or guests staying. That is clever design at its best.
