From the album: Design Inspiration
We loved the bold eclectic vibe of Sherwin Williams Colormix Forcast 2019 "Enthusiast". https://www.sherwin-williams.com/homeowners/color/find-and-explore-colors/paint-colors-by-collection/color-forecast/2019/enthusiast With descriptors like "Maximalism", "Cozy Chaos", "Over-the-Top Opulence", and "More-is-More", is there really anything left to say? -

From the album: Design Inspiration
Create a space that inspires you like this eccentric and quirky kitchen. In Chief Architect, you can design spaces in any style from modern and clean to the classic English kitchen and everything in between. This space was inspired by #deVol and their Peckham Rye Kitchen Design. As deVol puts it, “If luxe and bohemian can be used together, then it is the perfect description for the Peckham Rye Classic Kitchen. A crazy mix of beautiful bespoke cupboards, ugly marble, and collections of stunning art and pottery.” -
The quality of our products and services is very important to Chief Architect. Please complete a brief survey so that we may better serve you in the future. Submit your survey for a chance to win a Chief Architect Care Kit. See details on this giveaway at the end of the survey. Take the Survey

We've been working with Blue Collar Builders TV, creating small home designs in a variety of Architectural Styles. These houses are meant to create opportunities for property owners in Paradise, CA to rebuild after the devastation of last year's Camp Fire. Browse this gallery of plan variations in Coastal, Cottage, Craftsman, Farmhouse, Modern Mountain, Federal Saltbox, Colonial, Victorian, and Tuscan themes. If this is a project that interests you, reach out to Blue Collar Builders TV and see how you can participate. Learn more about the project in this blog post. See the full selection of plan options here: https://cloud.chiefarchitect.com/1/samples/projects/paradise-rises/paradise-rises.pdf

Another bird's-eye view, this time illustrates the spaciousness that can be gained by added a few feet and some loft space in the Option 2 floor plan. Even though the head height is low upstairs, there is plenty of room to take advantage of a multi-use space like this. Chief Architect's navigation and 3D rendering tools, along with extensive downloadable catalogs make it easy to see for yourself how a space can be used and lived in, before construction ever begins. -

In this bird's-eye view, we took the floor out of the attic spaces so you could peek through to see the floor below. I like to imagine the family dog and kids running laps around the circular passageway upstairs. Of course, if that sounds unappealing, some doors could be removed from the design so it is customized for other lifestyles. -

Option 3 intentionally leaves most of the attic space unfinished to create an opportunity for home owners. Once the lower floor is completed, it will be move-in ready. The home owner can circle back around later to create 2nd floor livable space on their own terms. -

A bird's-eye view gives a bigger picture to help imagine what it might be like to live in, and move through, this small home. This version's roof doesn't offer space for a loft area like some of the other architectural styles, but it does allow for high ceilings in most rooms and a functional, casual space that makes a small house feel bigger. This view can be easily created in Chief Architect using the Full Overview Camera. We made a new layer set to be used in the camera view that turns off the display of the roof components and ceiling surfaces so we can peek inside the space. The Watercolor Rendering Technique, with Line Drawing turned on, gives this image a more artistic look instead of striving for photo realism. -

On the second floor, this overview depicts a home that only needs 3 bedroom spaces. The forth space makes a perfect office for working from home. -

The first floor bird's-eye view illustrates how this interpretation of the floor plan reserves the main level to common or public spaces. -

I feel like this bird's-eye view does a great job of capturing the Modern Cabin's livable space. -

Bold and whimsical, the Victorian style home is 'done up' with gingerbread details from toes to tip. Chief Architect offers custom assignments for roof trim like shadow-boards and frieze-boards, and railing accents for posts, panels, and newels. We also set up dramatic window trim to capture a hint of the details that can be included in a Victorian house. -

This modern take on a cabin pairs lots of open space and large-pane glass windows with traditionally rustic exterior colors and materials. The shed roof cozies up with a steep gable further pairing the styles. Chief Architect's Roof Beam tools are an easy way to add beams to a project. They are smart objects that recognize roof planes in the proximity and can be updated to fit the roof as the design adapts and changes, as they are prone to do. -

Option 5 has a full height 2nd floor over the bedroom side of the design only. This creates opportunities for vaulted ceilings over the living spaces, making the living area feel big while maintaining 'small house' square footage. This option provides the possibility of 4 bedrooms with 3 full bathrooms. We created two styles using this floor plan, a Federal Style Saltbox and a Modern Cabin.
