My family dynamic is a little different from the stereotypical one. Yes, we are your standard husband, wife, and daughter 3-person family but that is about where it ends.
We have additional factors that impact our desires and goals as we build up our balance sheet for the eventual acquiring of a home. Like many others, we shop around looking at many different styles of homes but none of them really strike us as the one that meets our dynamics.
See we like the concept of having an attached greenhouse so we can tend to tropical plants from the Philippines so my wife can have a taste of home in her home. That just is not a standard in homes for sale. So we know we need to work at developing our house plans.
Not only do our home plans include a Filipino retreat of sorts but we also need to factor in additional children, office space, space for servers, and space for any of her immediate family that may visit us and / or a place for my surviving parent when one of them passes.
It may be a cool idea to look at log home plans but that is something I need to go over with my wife. I go for functionality and handicap friendly options. The interior design has to meet my wife’s tastes and a touch of the Philippines.
It is cool that there are websites that house numerous home plans to review and decide on. Maybe, just maybe we’ll find one to our liking that way.
