Home Builder Awards 2020

9 2020 Home Builder Awards BUILD home is so much more than just a home. It is a reflection of the person, or people, living inside of it. The furnishings, the quirky little additions, and the colour schemes all serve to bring out the personality of those living there, and make it more than just a house with four walls and a roof. Specialising in creating these custom homes for clients all over the world, SMDA understands better than most how important it is to have a home that means something to those residing there. Drawing on every aspect of its expertise in the international hospitality and residential field, SMDA creates personalized homes that are filled with the beautiful details that fit each individual lifestyle. The clients that SMDA serve are busy, successful, and demanding individuals for whom nothing but the best will suffice. In delivering the best, the firm designs and create the dream house that fulfils the client’s every request, requirement, and residential need. Flexibility is key for any custom design firm, and SMDA prides itself on believing that its style is whatever the perfect style for the client is. Whenever starting a new project, there is always a considerable amount of time spent at the beginning simply getting to know the client. Using the answers to these questions, the home then begins to take shape in a style that is specific to the client and their needs. Detailing can be the key difference between a good project, to an extraordinary dream home. The time that the team at SMDA spends on thinking through each of the details is second to none within the industry, and the results speak for themselves. Under the sage guidance of Shanna Kerr, the firm enjoys intimate involvement in every case to make sure the outcome is the best it can possibly be. There are many custom homes that have been built whose very architecture radiates the personality of those inside. One of the most perfect examples of SMDA’s custom homebuilding expertise can be found in an extremely large house in the Los Angeles area. Given the home’s massive size and the enormity of each room, the team worked diligently to create spaces that would work well both when entertaining large groups, but also be comfortable and homelike when the family wasn’t hosting guests. The family itself also had small children, and the home itself began to include playful details to ensure the children had a space all their own. The team also showed off their interpersonal skills, sitting down with the family to talk about dreams and aspirations, and how these would impact a space that was being created. Every client is kept informed of all decisions throughout the process, especially the major decisions. If a client is not available for an Jan20444 A in-person meeting, then SMDA employs the latest video call and conference call technology to ensure that every client understands the decisions that are being made regarding their dream home. As another way of helping make sure clients are crystal clear on every aspect of their custommade home, the firm primarily communicates through imagery. A word could mean anything to anybody, but images can show a client exactly how their space will look. This use of imagery continues throughout the process. Once well into the design and construction phase, SMDA utilize photo-realistic renderings to help clients visualize what the finished space will look. The team then produce extremely detailed drawings that show how each element comes together, before encouraging mock-ups of things like mouldings and cabinets. The team also insist that they are onsite regularly during construction to help oversee the proper realization of the vision. Custom homes are a luxury that many of us dream about, but for those who can make it happen, there is no better company to work with that SMDA. Its commitment to delivering the absolute best, taking into consideration everything about the client, is completely unmatched, and the homes themselves are absolutely stunning. Architecturally, internally, and personally, these homes are nothing short of a luxury, and the work of the firm is fully deserving of all the plaudits.
