Material Planning for New Construction Homes
In a new construction home, every surface is specified from scratch — floors, walls, ceilings, countertops, tile, stone, hardware, and the hundreds of other material decisions that collectively determine the home's visual character and tactile quality. This comprehensive material responsibility is both the greatest opportunity and the greatest challenge of new construction design: the opportunity to create a home where every surface participates in a coherent material narrative, and the challenge of managing the complexity that this level of specification demands.
