The Value of Traditional Architecture |
|
The first thing to note is that the term ‘traditional’ is not a style, but a collection of elements that has been repeated over time, evolving through many styles.
The basis of traditional structures is really innovation, which means combining the best of what has come before with the best of today to build what will be even better tomorrow. Therefore the true value of traditional architecture comes from those builders that are constantly improving their product in areas such as design, material selections and efficiency – “Built with the integrity of the past, and the technology of the present.” as we like to say here at Flynner Homes. Many of us would love to live in an historic Victorian, Bungalow, Colonial or Craftsman style home, but do not want the drafty windows, squeaky floors and inefficient heating and cooling systems. So by taking the unique characteristics of the past, such as architecture and hand-crafted detailing and combining it with sustainable durable materials along with ENERGY STAR or LEED certifications, we create homes that people love to call home.
