HGTV Smart Home 2015 Under Construction

HGTV Smart Home 2015 is a two-level, high-tech home, built with an open floor plan and modern farmhouse design in mind.

Finished Front Yard

With a contemporary Austin farmhouse style, this simple home is as stylish as it is efficient. “It’s intended to be a very contemporary landscape,” explains the house planner Jack Thomasson. “It feels very contemporary, clean and simple.”

Kitchen

Upon entering, visitors are led directly into the open living room and kitchen area.

To make this charming kitchen completely functional, the design and build team opted for a triangle-style workspace.

While the kitchen island’s counter matches the white kitchen cabinets, the base of the island is painted in a soft gray that complements the room’s neutral color palette.

Dining Room

The dining room is positioned between the kitchen and living area for easy entertaining and traffic flow.

Open to the kitchen, entryway and living room, the dining room sets the scene with streaming natural light and an open floor plan.

“We have really great designer lighting around the house. All of the decorative fixtures throughout the house use LED bulbs, including the candelabra bulbs above the dining table and all the lamps so we have a complete LED story here,” says Jack.

Living Room

The living room is positioned on the side of the house and feature three walls of windows. Wide, sliding low E-glass doors on the far wall lead to a floating deck on the side yard, thus flooding the room with natural light.

In the living area, there's the perfect spot for hanging a large, wall-mounted flat screen television.

As beautiful as it is practical, this stylish living room can also double as a guest room in a house that is sure to have plenty of visitors.

A great mix of patterns and textures comes together to create one cohesive, stylish space. “The living room is very subtle,” explains interior designer Linda Woodrum. “It’s more about the textures and the subtle variations that wrap all around the room.”

Screened Porch

Behind the house is a private porch, perfect for outdoor entertaining and afternoon lounging.

Large insulated low E-glass casement style windows look directly into the screened porch off the back of the house.

“We like the sense that we’ve kept it quiet. The chairs are all very sculptural and beautiful and because all of the wood tones are the same it keeps it interesting but it isn’t too much. It’s very much about being tied in to what’s outside,” says Linda.

Upstairs Loft

Upstairs a carpeted media loft with a large, 84-inch television lend a movie theatre experience. The room is spacious enough to accommodate a billiard table as well.

For a theatre experience, a 7.1 system is installed with speakers mounted in the center of the wall, to the left and to the right, an in-wall subwoofer, and ceiling-mounted side and rear speakers, which are controlled by a tablet.

With plenty of seating and a vibrant color palette, the loft is the perfect place for a slumber party or family movie night. “This is kind of the great big blue room,” says Linda. “I think 20 people could be up here watching TV.”

Master Suite

The master bedroom is accessed via a transition area a few more steps up. “It has a cottage scale,” says lead architect Don Harris.

The master bedroom features sloping ceilings that measure 5 feet on the sides and just over 10 feet at the peak.

Finished Master Suite

The open entrance to the master bedroom from the hall keeps the room from feeling closed off, while providing easy access to the master closet.

Master Bathroom

The master bathroom has a water closet for the toilet, double sink vanity, fully tiled shower with multiple shower sprays and a separate tub with a window overlooking the backyard.

“There are digital controls in the master shower, as well as a remote and a television that is visible from the shower,” says Jack.

Finished Master Bathroom

With smart technology, a relaxing color scheme and exceptional storage options, this master bathroom is quite possibly the best room in the house.
