I am not an architect
Thursday, June 30th, 2011I have always wanted a new design when I buy or build a house and I want the design to be unique. I always want to look at different styles of house and I love to see how function and style come together into a structural design. When it comes to bold colors, I really love Tuscany Villas and other Tuscany inspired designs. I’ve not been to Tuscany , but whenever I look it up on Google, I really love looking at the designs they put on their houses and buildings. Tuscany houses really have a warm color and great structure. There was one cable show that I watched wherein the house they needed to redo is has a Tuscany design. The house had no exciting stuff to look at, and it was really drab. The designers needed to have more inspiration and ideas to make sure that the house looked like one of those Tuscany villas that I frequently see on the internet. I am not an architect, but I have been around these sort of things for quite some time now and I can really say that when it come to Tuscany designs, it’s all about color and some landscaping. Tuscany style still goes within the legal and moral bounds of style, form and function. Tuscany inspired designs really use a lot of organic materials and the landscaping also should at least be trimmed a bit so that it is low maintenance. Going back to the show, the designer really did a great job achieving balance and excitement without compromising the Tuscany style required by the owner. The result was just everything that the owner wanted, plus the fact that although the plants were very easy to take care of, they still look really good on the yard. The makeover was really very successful and the owner was ecstatic that what he wanted to have as a design was definitely achieved.
