From Design to Contruction. From a mere dream to a key in the door

From Design to Contruction. From a mere dream to a key in the door: Convenience and excellence are usually seen as mutually exclusive. For something to have the quality of excellence, it is often assumed that the process of its creation must have been intensive and laboured, full of struggles to be overcome. Our inbuilt scarcity mindset means we often believe that if it comes easy, it can’t be valuable. Thank struggling artists like Hemingway for that…   But it doesn’t have to be this way. At A Living Concept we believe that it is not a struggle, but instead a state of calm and tranquillity that bring about beauty, harmony and elegance. Indeed, a chaotic build can leave excited new home owners with nothing but a bad taste in their mouths, when what they should be doing is enjoying their new home and bathing in the pride of a project well executed. Building (or re-building) a house is a life investment – not only of money, but of one’s personality, effort and love. As such, the relationship with the building process itself needs to be characterised by love and respect as much as the relationship with the final product. It’s important to get it right.
