HANDCRAFTED ELEGANCE

VersaillesAdrian Addison

Elise

MTI does not manufacture tubs. It creates bathing vessels that are therapeutic works of art. No mass production. MTI artisans

handcraft each product according to the preferences of the customer.

Bathing vessels by MTI are renowned for the excellence of their design and the effectiveness of their therapeutic form. Whether

simple soaking tubs or air baths providing thermo-air massage, MTI tubs are works of art not only pleasing to the eye but masterfully

formed for bather comfort.

Regardless of material selected, high-gloss cast acrylic or more organic Engineered Solid-Surface, each product is a hand-

fashioned work of elegance.

Solna Kitchen Faucet by brizoThe genius of Brizos Solna kitchen faucet is in what you cant see.

In addition, the Solna faucet comes with Brizos Diamond Seal valve system to maintain the integrity and performance of the faucet for years to come. www.brizo.com

Wood imPreSSionS by croSSVilleMuch as I love hardwood oors, theyve never been ideal for the kitchen and bath, or any room where moisture may damage the nish and the wood. Crossvilles Wood Impressions an-swers this problem with patented porcelain stone tiles to give the wood oor acionados the look they love in any room of the house. The tiles are durable and easy to clean. Four plank shapes are offered in a variety of sizes and six natural wood colors. Crossville claims a history of sustainable manufacturing dating back to the very rst tile it produced in 1986.www.crossvilleinc.com

Mediterranean Within Reach

Discover gracious, outdoor-focused living that ts a slim lotTHIS MAGNIFICENT MEDITERRANEAN abode boasts a surprisingly narrow foot-print, despite offering a resort-like side yard complete with a long, arched loggia and detached guest house. Arched iron gates in the portico offer regal entry to a fabulous secluded courtyard. Rooms surround a pool and fountain with lots of glass for seamless indoor-outdoor living. An open oor plan ensures excellent ow in the common areas, with arches providing beautiful transitions between rooms and decorative ceiling treat-ments appearing throughout the house. The replace-warmed great room also features built-ins. In the kitchen, two islands, one with a snack bar, ensure ample chopping room

while guests mingle around the appetizers. A full bath waits conveniently near. Separate but close, the full guest suite makes for per-fect in-law accommodations or a teen retreat. On the far end of the home, the master suite encompasses an enormous bedroom, spa-like bath, and expansive walk-in closet. The whirlpool tub looks out to the master suites private garden. An adjoining library accesses the private back lanai. Upstairs, the second oor holds two guest suites, each with its own bathroom. Between the rooms, the size-able loft makes a great study center, with a small balcony facing the front of the house and a much larger one that adjoins a deck for views of the courtyard.

Stucco and stone harmonize beautifully on the exterior, topped by a classic low-pitched tile roof.

The products below are only a handful of the thousands available, but these have been chosen for their innovation, ingenuity, and beauty.

Get to Know your SiteMark Johnson, editor in chief of Cabin Life magazine, suggests rst getting to know your site. He recommends pitching a tent at your location overnight so that you can see how the sun and scenery interact throughout the day. Your location will help to determine what kind of plan you choose: for a lake or ocean cottage, youll want your public spaces, rather than bathrooms or laundry rooms, facing the waterfront to take full advantage of the loca-tion. In a mountain setting, panoramic windows will allow you to see all the surrounding peaks.

With any vacation home, youll want abundant outdoor living spaces like decks, patios, and porches for such luxuries as watching the sunset, dining alfresco, and of course, taking in the views. Think about the position of the sun and the direction of the prevailing winds, and be sure to have outdoor areas that are protected from sun and wind, as well as areas that are open to sunlight and breezes.

Making it personalConsider your lifestyle, says designer Dan F. Sater II, president and CEO of the Sater Group in Bonita Springs, Florida. Do you like to entertain? Do you work at home? Do you have frequent visitors? Understanding how you live and how to accommodate your interests is very important in making sure the home plan you select meets your needs, he says. Consider how youll be using the home and what your main activities will be when youre there. Are you likely to have only your immediate family using the home, or do you enjoy entertaining friends for extended stays?

The answers to these questions will help determine whats important to you in a plan. For instance, if you intend on hosting

many overnight guests, be sure to choose a design with ample sleeping space, but this doesnt necessarily mean having lots of bedrooms. Lofts are common sleeping zones in cabins, though Johnson notes that if young children will be frequent guests, con-sider a more noise-proof arrangement so that theyre not easily woken by noise from downstairs (nor will rambunctious little ones disturb the grown-ups). Novel solutions include wide window seats that double as beds, or bunk rooms. Its a good idea to have at least two bathrooms. One idea thats gaining popularity is an outdoor shower, Johnson says, which provides an ideal spot to hose down after shing or playing in the sand. If the friends you invite to your getaway home tend to congregate in the kitchen, You might want an extra station for somebody to chop up car-rots, he suggests. Having sufcient storage space is important too, for stashing beach umbrellas, sports equipment, and outdoor furniture during the off-season. Once youve established your pri-orities, you can search for designs that devote square footage to your favorite areas. You can also consider modifying a favorite de-sign to accommodate those uses (see page 190 for more info on modifying a plan).

Above all, have fun with the process, and make the home reect you! Johnson recommends lling an idea journal with

magazine cutouts of favorite homes, furniture, and decorating ideas. Another way to make it personal: incorporate local materi-als like stone or wood into the design to convey a unique sense of place.

practical considerationsThe idea of creating a home with unbelievable water views or rug-ged isolation is, of course, very exciting, but before packing your water skis know which precautions you need to take in order to make your home last. Does the area receive signicant snow? You may want a steeply pitched roof. Building a beach cottage? Homes near the ocean face the challenges of salt air, wind, and erosion. Waterfront homes require specialized foundation sys-tems, such as pilings, elevated oor systems, breakaway or ow-through walls. It is important to consult your local building depart-ment and get the assistance of a local engineer, Sater advises.

Fire may be a concern, especially in wooded or rural areas. Cabin Life offers great reproong tips in the magazine and online, such as clearing brush and trees within 30 feet of your home and making sure its accessible to re trucks. Johnson also advocates outdoor sprinkler systems, noting that a lot of cab-ins have been saved this way. A great resource for this topic is www.rewise.org.

In houses that may be unoccupied much of the year, security is another important issue. While you may wish to invest in an alarm system, Johnsons top method of theft prevention is simple

An open layout is great for accommodating guests, with plenty of seating and space for multiple cooks to work in the kitchen. And of course, this area should overlook the water. To learn more about this home, visit eplans.com and enter plan code HWEPL14013

and time-tested: Make friends with your neighbors, especially year-round residents. They can call you if they notice something unusual happening, or a stranger prowling around. Other easy steps: keep window blinds down to hide valuables like at-screen televisions, and strive for a lived-in look even when youre not there. Johnson recalls a reader in Ohio who leaves garden tools out to make it seem as if hell be right back. On the higher-tech side, web cams or remote monitoring systems are useful not only for seeing whats happening at the lodge but can keep track of climate inside the home and will alert you if, say, the tempera-ture drops below a certain point. Remote control is also useful for heating up the cabin a few hours before you arrive to ensure a toasty evening.

Though theres plenty to think about when youre planning your dream getaway, the rewards are many. When asked why one should build a vacation home, Johnson thoughtfully replied, Because you want a vacation lifestyle thats focused on gathering with family and friends and connecting with the outdoors. What could be better than that?

Coastal homes are designed to avoid signicant damage from storms and coastal ooding. Like this one, the ground level may contain little more than parking and storage areas, while the living areas are elevated, giving them the additional advantage of access to sea breezes and water views. For more information about plan HWL1900185, see page 192.

Assembling the team that will work on your project is a crucial step, one that will have a direct effect on your end productand your happiness. Of course its important to check references and to ensure that your professionals are properly licensed, but given the extensive interaction youll likely have with your team members, a personal connec-tion can be just as important. Ask yourself, does this person explain things well? Will I enjoy working out details with her? Does he have the same taste and sensibility? Does she understand my budgetary needs? If, for instance, you need to stick to a budget, you may not want a builder who is used to working with unlimited funds.

architect: In most cases you dont need an architect or residential designer when you buy a set of home plans. Is there something you want to change about the plan? Modication services can make all sorts of alterations, from adding a bathroom to redesigning the exterior. See page 190 for details.

engineer: Dan Sater says, We try very hard to make sure our plans are as detailed and complete as pos-sible. However, local building requirements vary from state to state and county to county, so nd out which regulations apply in your area. If questions arise from your local building department, or if there are issues about building on a particular site, you may need an en-gineer to address these concerns.

contractor or Builder: This individual will be involved in every step of the process, so its important to nd a reliable, trustworthy builder. Always check references. Ask former clients if the builder or contractor kept to the timetable, and if he or she came in on budget. A revealing question to ask references: What could this contractor have done better? Often homeowners dont want to say anything bad if they were happy with the contractor, but this question may yield some very telling answers. To nd a builder in your area, head to the builder directory at www.eplans.com or www.dreamhomesource.com.

interior designer: Its helpful to consult with an in-terior designer early in the process, even before you start to build. He or she can help you make decisions in terms of how the spaces ow, and about interior specications such as windows, door styles, hard-ware, cabinetry, appliances, and plumbing xtures. The more decisions you make early on, the more smoothly the process will go.

LIGHT-FILLED ROOMS ALLOW AMAZING VIEWS throughout the interior of this Mediterranean plan. The living room, dining room, and kitchen all ow into one another for ef-fortless movement and conversation between spaces, even to the spectacular outdoor relaxation areas. A massive island adds lots of counter space and seating room in the huge kitchen, with additional space for casual bites at the bar or at the breakfast nooks charming banquette. A row of dening arches and built-ins are luxurious details in the living room, where the second-oor balcony draws the eye up. Angled lines melt into the outdoors with retreating glass walls here and in the kitchen. Step out to the spacious outdoor area with a vaulted octagonal ceiling and re-place centerpiece, which is further complemented with a stunning outdoor kitchen for entertaining. A separate cabana suite off the rear grants stylish independence to a guest or live-in relative.

On the left side of the plan, nd ultimate relaxation in the master suite, which dazzles with several walk-in closets (one of them with an island and windows), a fantastical bath with a walk-in shower, and an exercise room that can become a serene sitting room.

Upstairs, a separate world beckons family or guests with three complete suites, an outdoor deck, an adjoining loft area with ample room for relaxation, billiards, and a computer gaming alcove even a sepa-rate laundry room. Together these features make this a great primary home or getaway home for large families or couples who frequently host guests.
