When you are designing a home to build, you have a large number of architectural styles to choose from. More than just the outer shell of the home, the style you choose will determine a lot of choices throughout the rest of the home, and also shows visitors more about yourself.

A traditional home is the most common style in the United States. It is a mix of many classic, simple designs typical of the country's many regions. Common features include little ornamentation, simple rooflines, symmetrically spaced windows. A typical traditional home is Colonial, Georgian, Cape Cod saltbox, some ranches. Building materials are either wood or brick. While the styles presented on our site are custom designed, it is very much possible to reach the same effects with many materials, whether concrete, stone or even synthetics.

People often misuse the terms ‘traditional’ and ‘modern’ as synonyms for old and new. In reality, there is more to modern and traditional architecture than age. In fact, some modern homes are almost a hundred years old, and many newly-built homes carry on the traditional style.
