Where The TV Belongs, And How A Family Crosses Paths

Some of our best-fit customers are already asking if they need a TV spot in the main living space. Could it go somewhere less open, less public? I like starting with that question because it puts the placement of the television up for discussion instead of treating it as a given.

We already have several customers thinking this way. They’re wonderful people, and they’re open to what I call collisions: those moments when family members cross paths in the house. That’s something I want us to think about as we talk through a home.

These customers are questioning whether a child’s bedroom needs to function like a private apartment, with little reason to spend time in the shared parts of the home. I share that concern. To me, there’s a real difference between having some privacy and arranging a house so everyone can disappear into a separate world.

That’s the conversation I value: where the TV belongs, how much separation we want, and where those everyday collisions can happen. The customers I’m describing are already thinking about those choices. We can start there, with the kind of family life they want the house to make room for.
