Making a House a Home
What makes a house a home?
A home is a representation – a reflection – of who you are and of who your family is. It is a place where you should feel free to be yourself; somewhere you feel comfortable and safe. It is your hive, your intimate space.
Over the past 19 years, my family has lived in three homes – the current one being a short sale from the bank that we then remodeled ourselves. Nine years, two kids, and a dog later, the house needed a bit more love, so in April of this year we began a remodel of almost our entire first floor. The renovation would include our entryway, kitchen, a new window in our dining room, a façade upgrade of our front patio, and turning a three-season room into another room of our home.
Although building and remodeling are about product and structure, it should also be about your quality of life.
