Building Aubrey Station - Post 10

Over a month ago we had just drywalled and were starting on the siding of Lot 1 at Aubrey Station. Now just a month later, we have: Painted and primed the walls so we can install the cabinetry,    Stained the cabinets and added travertine tile flooring and baseboards,    Installed the sinks,    Finished tiling the showers,    Installed shingles on the roof,    And painted the exterior of the home.     There is still much to do as we prepare this home to be our Model Home at Aubrey Station.  Look for more information as this home will be open in January of 2013!  For more information on the homes at Aubrey Station, please call 858-431-9622 or contact Lori@mddhomes.com .

Tips on making a house a Home

What makes a house a home?  In recent years the definition has shifted away from formality to comfort . Pictured below is a great room with plenty of seating, from an oversized sofa to padded dining room chairs or bar stools.  Solid Wood flooring adds a rich look while the carpeting is soft and inviting .  A home needs to be as welcoming as it is beautiful.  Here, rich, warm colors and seating that can be easily rearranged attribute to a welcoming, versatile room .     Every room should function effortlessly. Below, comfortable furniture with alternate walkways allows traffic flow and functionality .   Furniture should be scaled to suit the space and often times needs to be versatile and flexible.  In a small space like a bedroom, it is important for it to look cozy and yet uncluttered.  Choose pieces that fit the size of the room and open up the space like these upholstered open-arm chairs.
