Me and my wife are looking into open-concept living and this audio was perfect for giving us a step by step guide to everything we needed to know. The author was really experienced and its saved us a lot of time, energy and effort by streamlining our choices to be more specific to what we ideally want from our new home. It's great there is a section about budget concerns as we have a tight budget and really can't afford to overspend on this dream project but the time is right and this audio has given us a lot of confidence about putting all the information into action. We hope to apply everything we have now learned to be in our dream home in around 6 months from now. Highly recommended.

Open-concept living has been something I’ve thought about for a while now, and some of the incredible designs of these homes is nothing short of remarkable. Some of the aesthetic elements get the imagination running and helps one get really excited for future homes and future investments. One of the key takeaways here is that the author, M.R. Boss, caters to almost any (reasonable) budget. But lets face it, unless you already own something to turn into a barndominium, or unless you are very wealthy, you’re probably going to need a bit of dough. But that’s no reason why you can’t start dreaming up your imaginary dream barndominium, ready for when you want to invest. I love the design secrets given here that don’t take away from of overall aesthetic delights homeowners might be after. Great stuff
