Turn on your TV to any HGTV or DIY show, and you’ll see them tearing down the walls and opening a home. Open floor plan living is a trend that shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon. If you’re still living with “rooms” dividing up your main living space like the kitchen for cooking, the dining room for eating in, and a living room/family room for entertaining, it is now time to check out an open floor plan.
This is a fantastic way to open the main living space of your existing home. It will improve workflows in the kitchen and traffic through your home and let in more natural light. As our lifestyles have shifted to a less formal way of living and entertaining, the idea of a traditional living room and dining room no longer fits how we use our space. Using our design build remodeling process, our clients in Howard County Maryland removed several dividing walls and got the open floor plan they had envisioned. Open living as in one room for all reasons, allows you to enjoy more of your home more of the time. It is the trend that keeps on trending.
