Sustainable design increases in luxury custom homes
Homeowners are now choosing designs that balance modern conveniences and sustainability with classic architecture, rather than following short-lived trends. Custom homes are increasingly being designed with energy efficiency in mind, including high-performance insulation, energy-efficient windows, smart thermostats, advanced HVAC systems and LED lighting.
Luxury custom homes are being designed so outdoor areas feel like true extensions of the home’s interior. Popular features include folding or sliding glass walls, outdoor kitchens and dining areas, as well as resort-style pools. Additionally, natural light never goes out of style and accentuates outdoor-indoor living style. Large windows, transoms, glass doors and thoughtfully positioned openings create brighter interiors that feel more spacious and welcoming. Benefits also include reduced energy use, improved mood and well-being.
