Recommended Home Design Resources   Columbus, Ohio Area Builders and Remodelors
     
We want you to know as much about home design as possible because smart clients make us look good. Knowledge and inspiration come from many sources - here are a few websites and books that we've found interesting and useful.   Here's our "short list". We're picky about who's on our list, and it's not just the contractors who take us golfing. We've had great success with the new home builders and remodeling contractors listed below.
