Meet the newest member of the Wentworth, Inc. design-build team, Gyan Manu, Project Architect! Gyan believes very little in life can happen without considering architecture. As Gyan is involved in the design-build process from start to finish, communicating ideas and solutions to clients through sketches, scaled models, 3-D computer modeling, renderings, and perspectives, he is inspired by the world around him.
A so-called ‘cosmetic’ kitchen makeover is a more economical way to give your kitchen a new look and feel, while adding to the resale value of your home. And in a depressed economy, this can be the most sensible way to get a fresh, new kitchen without breaking the bank!
Though not always the first consideration for homeowners, windows can be an important aspect of a remodeling project. In order to maintain consistency and aesthetics, windows should always be in sync with your home’s architectural style.
Tile is a wonderful design embellishment for any home remodeling project and is especially important for kitchen remodeling and bathroom remodeling. When properly selected, tile is functional, practical, and beautiful.
All of us want a warm welcome when we arrive home. After all, owning a home is a meaningful experience, and it’s something you’ve worked hard for. For this reason alone, having an inviting, aesthetically appealing home entry has a lot of value. And, of course, a new entryway design can boost curb appeal and add market value to your home. This is where the rubber-meets-the-road in terms of smart design adding true dollar value.
A sunroom is a place where the indoors meet the outdoors and the cozy comforts of the home merge with the organic freedom of nature – that romantic spot where sunny days are great for watching flowers bloom and beautiful sunsets and rainy days make for cozying up with a favorite book. The spot may not be a necessity, but with its glass windows revealing an expansive sky above or another gorgeous view, a sunroom is a beautiful luxury worth exploring for your home.
As architects and designers, we frequently learn of materials and products that can bring individuality and personal touches to a home’s design. If there’s a particular style, feature or detail you love, there is most likely a way to incorporate it into the design of your remodeling project. A home should be well-designed, but it should also be personal and uniquely yours!
