              Accent Colors: 5 Eye-Catching Design Features for Your Custom Home

              Posted by tbhadmin on

              In custom home design, a strategically chosen accent color can transform a room, creating focal points that elevate the overall aesthetic. At Travars Built Homes, we work with clients to incorporate accent colors that highlight architectural features and add personality to each space. Whether you’re building on your lot or choosing from one of our custom plans, these design elements add unique touches that make every home feel tailored to your vision. Here are five examples of how accent colors are used to make specific design elements pop:

              High Wainscoting and Drop Zone – Avonmore

              The Avonmore plan features accent wainscoting in the master bedroom, drawing attention to a key wall while adding depth and texture. The drop zone also uses a similar treatment, creating a cohesive look that welcomes you home.

              Explore the Avonmore tour

              Dark Shiplap Fireplace – Amherst

              In the Amherst plan, a dramatic dark shiplap accent spans from floor to vaulted ceiling at the fireplace bump out, anchoring the living area with a bold, contemporary feel.

              See the Amherst tour

              Coffered Ceiling – Teesdale

              The Teesdale plan features a dark coffer ceiling in the two-story foyer, adding striking contrast against lighter walls and drawing the eye upward to showcase the architectural detailing.

              View the Teesdale tour

              Barn Door in Accent Color – Noni Cottage

              In the Noni Cottage, a barn door painted in an accent color serves as a functional design statement, seamlessly blending rustic charm with modern style.

              Take a look at the Noni Cottage tour

              Bold Red Front Door – Gregory

              Nothing says “welcome home” like a bold red front door. The Gregory plan uses this timeless accent to make a lasting first impression, creating a classic focal point that stands out against a neutral exterior.

              Visit the Gregory tour

              Why Accent Colors Matter in Custom Home Design

              Choosing the right accent color can enhance architectural features, define spaces, and convey a specific mood or style. Whether it’s a bold front door, a shiplap wall, or an accent ceiling, these design elements make a custom home feel unique and thoughtfully curated. And when you’re building on your lot with Travars Built Homes, every detail can be tailored to your preferences — from accent walls to exterior finishes.

                Studio Spaces and Family Suites: Versatile Living | On Your Lot Builder

                Posted by tbhadmin on

                When you’re building a custom home on your lot in Chatham, Lee, Alamance, or surrounding counties, having a dedicated space that adapts to your lifestyle can make all the difference. At Travars Built Homes, we build custom floor plans with Studio Spaces and Family Suites that provide privacy, flexibility, and functionality — perfect for the way you live, work, and relax.

                Why Include a Studio Space or Family Suite?

                • Privacy and Separation: A Studio Space or Family Suite located away from main living areas can be the ideal setting for a home office, guest quarters, or creative workspace.
                • Multi-Use Flexibility: Whether it’s a playroom for the kids, a home gym, or a personal retreat, these rooms can evolve as your needs change.
                • Resale Value: Adding a well-designed Family Suite or Studio Space increases your home’s appeal, giving future buyers versatile options for guests, in-laws, or rental income.

                Featured Floor Plans with Studio Spaces and Family Suites

                Explore these custom home plans that prioritize separation and multi-purpose living:

                • Harper’s Ferry: This modern farmhouse design includes a spacious Studio Space on the upper level, ideal for a nanny suite, craft room, or home theater.
                • Settlers Ridge: With its separate rear stairway entry, the upper-level Family Suite provides an expansive, private area for guests, teens, or in-laws — complete with a covered porch for added living space.
                • Seneca Falls: A breezeway connects the detached garage to the main home, leading to a thoughtfully designed Studio Space. Use it as a home office, art studio, or private guest retreat.
