“I think we put in things in this home that will stand out to people — not just how it looks, but also how all of the home’s systems can be controlled through your smartphones,” said Kyle Murphy, owner of Murphy Home Builders and builder of the 2017 Inspiration Home. “You can be sitting in any room, or even away on vacation, and control your lighting. Things like that will stand out to homeowners and people who come into the home.”
Murphy designed the custom floor plan and incorporated emerging design features.
“We tried to make the floor plan open, but also, with that openness, try to create defined rooms so you still feel cozy in a big open space,” Murphy said.Built as a showcase, the 2017 BH&G Inspiration Home will be open for tours each Thursday through Sunday during November, beginning Nov. 2. Featuring styles and designs from some of Birmingham’s top retailers and manufacturers, the five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath house includes a spacious kitchen and living area that opens to an outdoor entertaining space overlooking the pool. The home is about 4,800 square feet.
