Lateral Building Design

Is your layout a design Sleigh… or Nay at Christmas time?

Designing a home that will grow and evolve through each chapter of your life is one thing, but don't forget those special annual celebrations!

Ask yourself these simple Christmas Queries to see if your plan is Ho-Ho-Pro… or a Deck-the-Halls No-Go…

🎄Do you have the perfect place for your Christmas tree?
Choose a spot with good visibility, enough space for gifts without blocking walkways.

🌟Are there power-points nearby?
Plan ahead by checking outlet locations to safely power tree lights, garlands, and outdoor displays without overloading circuits. We don’t want extension cables tripping Santa in the middle of the night! He’s got a job to do. Safety first.

🧦Do you hang your stockings, by the chimney with care?
Pick a secure, visible place for stockings—mantels, shelves, or wall hooks—to create a cozy festive focal point everyone will enjoy.
No fireplace…maybe you have a fake mantle? Don’t forget a clear wall for this little décor detail.

🦌Do you host family or friends over the holidays?
Ensure there is appropriate space to rearrange furniture to create comfortable gathering and food server areas, ensuring guests can move freely and enjoy conversations without feeling crowded next to your life sized Nutcracker (we all have one of those, right?)

🎅 Is your entry hall fit for the Clause family, and all their little elves?
Make sure your foyer has space for wreaths, side table décor, and guests arriving with gifts and bags.

🎁Don’t forget storage.
Your decorations and lights need to go somewhere for the rest of the year (unfortunately). Make sure there is ample storage somewhere in your home to keep the magic safe, dry, and ready for next year.

Modern architecture is going green inside and out!

Many new buildings use energy-efficient tech and add green walls or rooftop gardens. These living features help cool the building, clean the air, and boost local biodiversity. It’s a smart blend of nature and design shaping our cities for a healthier future.

Did you know…

The colour of your exterior walls can change how warm, or cool, your home feels?
Darker shades soak up more heat, while lighter tones reflect sunlight — which is why many homes in sunny places like Greece are painted white to stay cool.

New materials are taking this idea even further!
Thermochromic paints adjust their colour or reflectivity with temperature, helping keep buildings cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
Photochromic paints react to sunlight, reducing glare and solar gain.
Countries such as Portugal, Spain, and the UAE are already researching these smart coatings to boost comfort and cut energy use.

When designing your living room, flooring sets the tone.

Options can include timber for warmth, carpet for comfort, polished concrete for a modern touch, or tiles for a sleek finish.

Tiles are durable, easy to clean, and cool in summer — but can feel hard underfoot and chilly in winter, so you may find a rug is a must in these spaces.
