Omaha, NE, November 02, 2007 --(PR.com)-- One basic floor plan, four different lifestyles with floor plan and elevation modifications to meet those lifestyle needs and desires. This brand new Lifestyle Plan Package is being debuted in the recently released 2008 edition of Spec Build magazine. The Lifestyle Plan Package starts with one basic footprint, and then modifications are made to meet the needs of families with children, empty nesters, single people of all ages and those who work at home. This innovative plan package enables builders to enjoy the efficiency of building a similar plan repeatedly, while allowing clients to select from an extensive range of options to create a home customized for their convenience and enjoyment.

Carl Cuozzo, lead designer for Design Basics of Omaha, NE, says, “In the current, difficult housing market, it’s more important than ever to stand out from the crowd by offering homebuyers something unique.”

Published annually since 1989 by Design Basics, this year’s edition of the popular Spec Build magazine focuses on ideas, advice and solutions to help homebuilders not only survive but thrive with today’s current housing challenges. Other features include advice about current Internet trends, marketing ideas, case studies in plan alterations, and an examination of a mixed-use development. Additionally, because this year’s edition of Spec Build is published electronically and is downloadable as a PDF, Design Basics is able to take advantage of the latest technology and include 25 of the top-selling home plans for each reader’s unique geographic area.

Linda Reimer, President of Design Basics, says, “We understand where our builders are right now. It’s tough for so many of them. That’s why we are focused on solutions, things our builders can use right away to move forward and come out okay on the other side of the current housing challenges.” Design Basics has had a finger on the pulse of the building industry since 1983 and is now the nation’s leading home plan design firm. Reimer continues, “We mark 25 years of service to the home building industry in 2008. In those 25 years, we’ve grown to be a leader our builders can count on for the most popular designs, the freshest ideas, and best marketing support. As we went to production, it was important to us to make sure this edition of Spec Build lives up to that reputation, and without a doubt, it does.”
