They also wanted a home that would be built to last, easy to maintain, and ultra-energy efficient. This shows the exterior of an Asian-Inspired home In addition, from travel worldwide and from family heirlooms handed down, they had objets d’art they hoped to incorporate into the design in order to properly display the art for all to enjoy. The clients’ grandmother was a renowned artist in Korea and pieces of her embroidered artistry act as key focal points in several of the rooms.
