"This was a major design project in our second home, with a deadline for our daughter's April wedding. Marva Williams, owner of DWOTC, worked with me from the very beginning (Oct 2016) to give our house a much needed upgrade to "Coastal Chic" without being overly cutesy-beachy. As this was a long distance management project for me, Marva became my onsite eyes and ears, regularly sending text and photo updates. Her attention to detail in supplying detailed quotes and samples, room by room and item by item idea book, follow-up discussions and revisions, and personal responsibility for the security of our house was always professional and friendly with complete dedication to the success of the project and our happiness with the result. Always open to my ideas, Marva's own design sense and years of experience captured the style I desired for our home, and she worked out every detail with me, persevering until I was satisfied with the plans. Work began in early January 2017, and as I was not present for the messy interior work involving painting, flooring and bathroom vanity construction, and furniture deliveries, Marva managed her work crews efficiently and arranged for a thorough commercial cleaning after they were finished. She accepted my online purchase shipments at her office and brought them to my house in her almost daily 20 mi (one-way)commute. I was so pleased when I made my first on-site visit, about 6 weeks into the project. Marva had placed the new furniture and accessories, used existing bedding to make up beds, hung some existing art work, included a surprise custom embroidered sofa pillow, and even added a bouquet of fresh flowers to welcome me to my beautiful home. During my visit we worked together to identify punch list items and make new choices for the master bedroom furniture (Marva readily agreed to take back the first selections which were too big for the space). Additionally she worked with her specialty painter to redo the finish of the kitchen tabletop (650 year old cypress she had sourced!) The wedding deadline was achieved and the result is lovely-- a calm, cool, and charmingly comfortable home that we can enjoy for more than just summertime. Marva prepared all revised quotes and payment schedules, emailing scanned invoices and outside vendor (plumbing, electrical) bills to me for payment. Her initial deposit and agreement was fair and concise; accounting of payments to her were accurate and timely. At final project completion, sign-off and payment, Marva presented me with a notebook with room-by-room paint chips, information for furnishing fabric care, and warranties. Extra paint cans were labeled and stored in plastic bins. A delightful woman to work with, Marva has an endearing personality and good sense of humor, which contribute to her positive attitude. Her willingness to work long-distance and her trustworthiness were essential to the success of this project. I HIGHLY recommend Marva Williams and Designing Women of the Carolinas."

Architects questions, answered by experts

Mid-century modern architecture was a popular home style throughout the U.S. from the 1950s to 1970s. Most homes feature a wide and symmetrical floor plan with low-sloped roofs and floor-to-ceiling windows. Its minimalism and balanced appearance are back on the home style scene, particularly when maximizing sunlight, airflow, and a blend with the home's natural surroundings.

Hire an architect at the very beginning of your home-building process. An architect’s training and expertise can guide the process from start to finish to ensure you don’t miss or have to redo any important steps. An architect will also provide valuable input on design, materials, and other details right from the beginning.

Building designers charge between $2,000 and $50,000, depending on project scope, complexity, and customization.

A home elevator is a fantastic way to improve your home’s accessibility. Elevators allow anyone, even those who use wheelchairs or walkers, to safely move between floors within your home.

Dumbwaiters may allow you to move items up and down floors, and stair lifts can move people up and down, but elevators are the best option if you need space for people, their belongings, and/or mobility aids such as wheelchairs.

That said, home elevators cost more than other options, such as stair lifts. Consider your needs and your budget when deciding the best way to make your home more accessible to a person with a disability or a person who is aging in place.

Open floor plans can come with drawbacks—mainly the lack of privacy and noise dampening. Walls act as an important barrier for traveling sounds, meaning in an open floor plan you could hear your dishwasher running while sitting in your living room. Storage limitations and separation of activities (for example, keeping the kid’s playroom away from the dining room) are other reasons some homeowners are opting out of an open floor plan.
