Near Right: Bill Simone���s
philosophy is not to clutter his
design center with samples.
Rather, those are kept in the
design stations and brought
out as needed so as not
to overwhelm clients with
decisions at one time.
Far Right: Custom Design &
Construction���s design center
contains a dozen vignettes:
five kitchens, four bathrooms,
a home office, a home library
and a living/family room.
sioning adding a showroom to their business, Simone says, ���As with any remodeling
project, have a clear plan in mind and have
all your materials and quantities thought
through so you have an idea of the overall
cost, because you do sink a substantial
amount of money into a design center like
ours. And then there is also to the time
factor. How are you going to get it built?
Are you using your own people or are you
using your own trade partners ��� all of
which may take away from jobs that are in
progress. How do you coordinate all of
that?���
