	Description:		What makes a home look the way it looks? How do you approach designing a home based on where you are designing it and what style to you like? In Episode 85 of The Architecture Happy Hour podcast, co-hosts and architects, Laura Davis and Holly Hall talk about influences that shape home design. In this episode How we are enjoying our new office What does a vacation to Hawaii have to do with home design? Designing from the inside out vs. from the outside in Classical architectural styles vs. site responsive design Geeking out over vernacular architecture How a San Franciscan deals with a hot car ride vs. a Texan Home Design Tips on Choosing Windows: available materials and choices in operation Designing from the inside out The shape and layout of this home on the island of Kauai in Hawaii is driven by the rooms on the inside and how they relate to the view of the ocean. The tropical house has large sliding doors to capture the view and ocean breezes. Deep cantilevered roof eaves serve as floating patio covers with no posts to obstruct the panoramic view.

Photo from realtor.com Orienting the house to take in the mountain view and maxing out the windows is common in custom homes in Park City, Utah. Photo from realtor.com Designing from the outside in A classical revival style is designed from the outside in and is absolutely dependent on symmetry. This home in Highland Park, Texas was built in 1928. Photo from realtor.com Vernacular homes respond to the climate and culture of where they are built In desert climates such as in New Mexico, adobe homes were the vernacular style developed by the native Americans to keep their homes cool in the heat of the day and warm at night. Photo from realtor.com Large windows, deep wrap around porches, and raised foundations are characteristic of historic homes in hot, humid climates. This classic style house is in Savannah, Georgia and was built in 1894 when natural ventilation was a key.
