Multi-Generational Living
11/16/2019What are your thoughts on multi-generational living? According to a recent Houzz report this trend is on the rise for a variety of reasons such as "Baby boomers wanting to be near grandchildren. College graduates moving back home. Older folks needing help from younger family members. Extended families spending summers together."
Trina Sandschafer, design principal at Booth Hansen in Chicago, shares that “In an increasingly busy world, family remains the strongest connection. People want to make memories with their children and grandchildren and spend time with family.”
Whatever the situation, the overall idea is the same: Families more than ever are reaching across generations to create homes together. This creates a greater need for private spaces in larger homes, as families want to be together while still valuing their privacy.
