Dovetail Construction Archives - Lowell Custom Homes

It turns out the key to happiness and the key to your front door is one in the same. Latest findings point to the well designed home as a significant factor in leading your best life. Home should be a sanctuary of self-care, and the team at Lowell Custom Homes has a few ideas to help you make that happen.

Time is the greatest luxury

Most of our leisure time is fragmented by interruptions from an email, text, or simply caring for others. Since you cannot make more time, it makes sense to make the most of it. That’s where the homes from Lowell excel. Their forward thinking floorplans and distinctive features conserve your time and energy. Known for interiors that weave spaces together seamlessly, our homes will help you move efficiently throughout the day.

You Had Us At Hello

Nothing invites happiness like a well designed entry. From landscaping to architectural details, this is where the journey begins. Our video explains the artistry behind the entry doors in this show-stopping home, with Lulu Belle and Tucker extending a warm welcome.

Togetherness

You cannot make more time, but “time deepening” will make the most of what you have. Face-to-face interactions are an essential part of happiness. A home that supports togetherness can be more rewarding than screen time. We love open floor plans were the kitchen is at the heart of the home. When the layout is spacious and the appliances are luxurious, the kitchen becomes an ideal place for multitasking and gathering.

Speaking of luxurious appointments, a range from La Cornue USA and custom hood by Raw Urth turn this kitchen into a real happy place! Cabinetry by Geneva Cabinet Company.

The den can be another favorite setting for togetherness. This room wraps you in the warmth of knotty alder with its architectural barrel vault ceiling for an intimate cocoon.

Enjoy the Journey

A recommended approach to happiness is to decelerate and enjoy the ride. Home design should accommodate a variety of interests with space to rejuvenate. We think you’ll enjoy a tour of the specialty areas in this newly completed Lake Geneva area home.
