Crafting The Perfect Owner's Suite

This is another dream musthave, especially in homes that are a bit older and do not have an owner's suite from the start. Imagine your perfect getaway: a quiet respite with added soundproofing; a spa-worthy bathroom retreat loaded with smart features; a dressing room with lots of custom storage for your special items; a sitting area with a fireplace and builtins; and even a private deck that is all yours.

Explore your options as to where in your home an owner's suite can be created. This might be in a private wing downstairs, a reallocation of space upstairs, or an addition that is completely new.

Come to the design meeting with your needs, wants, and ideas from images you have seen online. Remember to look to your designer for ideas and layouts that you may not have considered.
