DesignHouse puts emphasis on service

By ROYCE ARMSTRONG

WIGGINS - A Wiggins home designer has won national acclaim by listening to customers and keeping abreast of building trends, the company president said.

"We offer personal service to help people find the perfect house plans," said Debra Purvis, founder and president of DesignHouse Inc. "We do make changes to our own plans. Women are fewer in this industry, but I believe it helps us design better homes."

DesignHouse recently was named runner-up for the Most Marketable Designer - Builder Sales award presented by Hanley Wood, a business-to-business media and information company.

"The house plan industry is very competitive," Purvis said. "Our challenge is to do the very best we can to provide plans our clients are looking for."

Purvis, who primarily designs country, traditional and Southern style home plans, said one of the hottest trends now is Traditional Neighborhood Design.

"We are developing more TND style plans," Purvis said. "The style makes people feel warm and comfortable... like grandmas' house but with the modern floor plans of today."

Purvis said that in one form or another, her entire family is involved in the industry. Her husband is a real estate broker and her daughter will be a junior at the University of Southern Mississippi in the fall, studying interior design.

She said her company's continued success will come through "listening to our clients' wants and needs.

"And looking to the Lord for the direction in our future. He has opened lots of doors for us."

This open Kitchen/Great Room design makes entertaining family and friends much more enjoyable, the chef of the house will never feel let out. A raised snack bar creates the perfect spot for a quick snack. You can also enjoy the view from your Breakfast Area, on those sunny mornings. The formal Dining Room has a large window and shares easy access to the Kitchen.

The Master Bedroom features a private covered porch accessed through french doors. An optional door for the Master Closet is shown and can replace the closet door in the bath, if desired. The Master Bath is a luxurious retreat with dual sinks, a corner whirlpool tub, large glass enclosed shower and a toilet compartment for privacy. The angles make this bath unique without adding a lot to the cost of the house.

The Laundry Room contains a front loading Washer and Dryer with a folding counter located above. Deep wall cabinets are located above the washer/dryer for even more storage.

The multi-purpose Mud Room contains built-in lockers with a bench for seating and drawers for storage. A built-in computer station is added to the room for your home office area or the children's homework. A Powder Room is located off the Mud Room for family and guests alike.

The Three Car Garage is positioned to take the emphasis off its size. The Garage is "pushed back" to hide the true size and give privacy to the Master Bedroom. Using this arrangement also creates more private space behind the outdoor kitchen.
