JMK Building Designs

Not every ‘upgrade’ is actually an upgrade… 😅
Some of these before & afters are a good reminder that design decisions can make or break a home.

It’s great to see architecture and design with real character. The problem is, not everyone thinks this way. And developing a sense of taste takes time. So, property owners might make decisions to change their homes that they personally enjoy, but which objectively make the building look worse. There’s this one online account that posts side-by-side photos from Google Maps showing how people’s houses have changed over time. And it is sad to look at what happened. We’ve collected some of the most egregious comparison pics to show you what to avoid doing.

Good design isn’t just how a home looks — it’s how it works.

Some of the most common issues we see don’t come down to finishes… they come down to layout 👇
• Kitchens disconnected from outdoor areas
• Not enough storage planned early
• Poor indoor/outdoor flow

These are the things that are hard (and expensive) to fix later.
Getting them right from the start makes all the difference.
