Housing Design Matters founder Deryl Patterson is a proponent of home plans that are easier for residents to live in. In her blog, she takes on the idea of building new homes designed specifically for renters.
Patterson breaks the renter's point of view into categories and offers design recommendations for each one, such as a floor plan that gives wide berth and minimizes exposed corners to the Maniac Movers and their heavy furniture. She also provides tips concerning elevations, flooring, and more for builders considering targeting the renter market.
