How Pinterest, Houzz, and Facebook Can Help You Build Your Dream Home

With the thrill of building your very own dream home comes the overwhelming choice for design, both inside and out. Of course, when you turn to Glenn Layton Homes, custom home builder Jacksonville Beach, you will have guidance and great suggestions. Still, it is best to narrow down your own personal style and preferences before work begins. To do so, take advantage of websites such as Pinterest, Houzz, and Facebook, which offer tons of inspiration and handy ways of keeping your ideas sorted.

Facebook, with groups for just about any interest, is a great place to find design inspiration. In fact, Glenn Layton Homes recently held a competition on their Facebook page allowing people to vote for their own favorite design elements for a specific house, including exterior paint, hardwood floors, granite countertops, kitchen island cabinet color, and pendant lighting. A look through their Facebook page will provide plenty of inspiration for anyone with a love of coastal living design.

Houzz is a great website for interior, exterior, and garden inspiration. From apartment to grand home, everyone — amateurs and design experts — has photos and tips for decorating any space in your home. As well as browsing for your own inspiration, you can follow individuals and businesses, read helpful stories, ask for specific advice, and even do some shopping. This website has quickly become the new way to design your home and Glenn Layton Homes has been named the Best of Houzz 2015 for both design and service.

You’re sure to find plenty of design ideas all over the internet, but Pinterest provides an excellent way of collating all of your ideas and sources, as well as offering up new ideas and designs. Best of all, you can create individual boards for every specific room, or even create multiple boards for different designs for the same room to help you visualize different options. The options are endless.
