The right plan is the most important part of the building process. A lot of time goes into this process. Hundreds of different plans are studied and looked at. Past projects are reviewed to benefit from those previous winners. The covenants of the subdivision are studied to help us understand the guidelines. Notes during the year are reviewed on feedback and conversations I have had with realtors and builders. But most importantly, the comments received from the previous parades, and the Sunday open homes, do the most to influence the design of the home. If you get a chance, and happen to visit the parade next June, please stop by and introduce yourself, and let me know what you think. I will most likely be sitting close to the front door greeting and visiting with our guests.
Once all the thoughts and ideas are put together, I then try to squeeze it all into a plan which will fit on the lot. The biggest challenge is to fit the homes on the lots. Wisconsin has a beautiful rolling landscape, which results in many lots sloping all different directions, and lots with many different shapes, angles and curves. It seems like just about every town or village has a different set of setbacks for the front, sides and rear. Take a look at this year’s plan by clicking here.
