I have always wanted a new design when I buy or build a house and I want the design to be unique. I like all kinds of architectural design, but I need to see that there is form and function. I really like looking at Tuscany Villas, and the bold colors and structural design really excites me. I have never been to Tuscany , but I really love it when I read about this country and watch the photos of their amazing buildings. Bold and warm colors really make a Tuscany style house. One time, I was watching this cable show that featured a Tuscany house that needed to be redecorated and fixed. The original house was really boring and had no boldness to it. The owner of the house requested that the designers make sure that the house will look like the Tuscany villas that he really liked to have. I’m not an architect, but I have been studying architecture and design for some time now, and so I can verily say that when it comes to making a Tuscany style house, you need color and many plants on your yard. Tuscany style still goes within the legal and moral bounds of style, form and function. Tuscany inspired designs really use a lot of organic materials and the landscaping also should at least be trimmed a bit so that it is low maintenance. That show that I watched really turned out well because the designers were able to give the owner what he really wanted ; a Tuscany house. The homeowner really liked the colors that the designers used and also the plants that were easy to use and maintain.   The makeover was really very successful and the owner was ecstatic that what he wanted to have as a design was definitely achieved.
