Design types - the family home

The family home.

Designed around the people, not the floor area.

The family home is where Storybook’s principles earn their keep daily: the kitchen at the heart, zones that give everyone room, and something for every member of the household.

The principles at work

A plan that keeps a family close

Shared life gathers around the kitchen and flows to the covered al-fresco; private life retreats to zones that respect each person’s need to recharge. Storage absorbs the chaos. The garden does the rest.

  • Kitchen central to all living
  • Zoning and privacy for every member
  • A designated place for every family ritual
About floor plans
