A Frame house plans origins
In the mid 1950's, an architect by the name of Andrew Geller revolutionized beach homes by designing the world's first A Frame house plans. The style he developed offered functionality and uniqueness to which few other styles could compare. Geller's development came an at opportune time, for more than ever before in American history, a burgeoning middle class could afford to build second homes to enjoy time to relax with family and friends. A Frame home plans let homeowners enjoy models that could boast chic style and commendable efficiency. Today, many find the model as desirable as ever, and for good reason...
Why A Frame home plans?
The A-line shape of these home designs offers certain advantages to which no other can compare. The sloping roof prevents excessive accumulation of snow that can put unwanted stress on the house. Also, the roof greatly reduces wind resistance, and provides maximum efficiency when air conditioning. Characteristic vaulted ceilings allow for upper-level living space, such as a loft, which make great bedrooms for children or guests. Additionally, A Frame house plans often incorporate large, open decks that promote outdoor living.
If you wish to build a vacation home, few styles can match the advantages and versatility of A Frame home plans. However, the A Frame design can certainly be applied to many environments, which is why they are also commonly used for permanent residencies. Please view The House Plan Shop's A Frame category to find out which model will best suit your lifestyle.
