We're building this year's Project House amid the rolling hills of North Central Texas, in a 2,500 acre mixed-use community called "Castle Hills".

The developers encourage architectural diversity in the subdivision, and we've managed to achieve a stunning design for the Project House by working with The Evans Group of Orlando, Florida. Founder Don Evans and The Evans Group have won over 500 home design awards.

The Project House is situated in the middle of the block, closely set between two previously built homes, but also sits atop a small hill, with an expansive view in the front to the northeast. To create a sense of privacy in the close-in setting, yet still create an open, sunlit and airy indoor-outdoor flow, Don Evans "pulled the house into itself" by working with a U-shaped design.

The home is designed to be both functional and space-conscious. The formal area includes a Grand Foyer entry into the Gallery that opens into the Grand room, which will feature a three-sided built-in Aquarium wall connecting to the Dining Room. The informal living space includes the home centers around a Gathering Room and Gourmet Kitchen with a Cafe that leads out to a Dining Porch. The entire first floor of the home opens onto the large covered lanais of the tropical pool environment through numerous windows and sliding doors. The idea is to create the feeling of an "oasis" within the home.

The Master Suite features such amenities as a private Master Foyer, Lounge Sitting Area overlooking the lanai and pool, large Master Bath, and His/Hers Wardrobes. The Guest Cabana includes bath, fireplace and large sliding doors that open to a covered trellis with spa.

The second floor of the home is designed with children and guests in mind, with a guest suite, two bedrooms, a playroom with half bath and snack bar, library and Internet Alcove.
