Multigenerational home trends
BY CAROLINE WRIGHT
As thousands of fami- lies in Hawaii know, multigenerational
housing can greatly enhance the lives of all who live under the same roof.
This is especially true when the space under that roof has been designed with multiple nuclear families in mind. And, for real success, understanding household members’ lifestyles is es- sential.
“Multigenerational hous- ing can be a brilliant solution for unexpected life challeng- es, like working from home,
remote schooling and sup- porting family members in fragile health,” says Bonnie Oda, client care director with Graham Builders.
Additionally, notes Oda, combining the resources of each family member is often the key to affordable home ownership.
“In many instances, Grand- ma owns property, and her children and grandchildren have the earning potential to fund the project,” Oda continues. “Separately, each might not be able to achieve a custom home, but togeth- er, the vision of a family home is fully possible!”
FULL-SERVICE MULTIGENERATIONAL EXPERTISE
Homeowners rate their ex- perience high with Graham Builders, because this local design-build firm is full-ser- vice. In addition to develop- ing award-winning plans and beautifully crafted homes, the firm helps coordinate all the pieces that homeowners need for a successful project.
“We didn’t know anything about building a house, how do we design it, how the permitting process works, etc.,” recounts a Manoa homeowner. “Graham knew how to manage the whole project, from financing, de- sign, permitting, demolition and to build in a way that helped us to feel we were taken care of. It was very comforting.”
PRIVACY AND INDEPENDENCE
Combining family units is tricky, and the importance of hiring a design-build company with experience in developing plans that offer privacy and indepen- dence can’t be overstated. The Graham Builders team
