Not-So-Big Parade of Homes

The Parade of Homes of the Twin Cities, a long tradition for home builders and home buyers, starts September 10th and runs through October 2nd. 278 new homes can be seen during this event.

Dwellings, by Accent Homes is showcasing a new trend of sensibly scaled homes with a focus on architectural and interior design detailing. While today’s homes are shrinking, the functionality of creative space planning and design elements are rapidly increasing and proving to be the utmost of importance for today’s buyers. Jim Kuiken of Jim Kuiken Design, creator of the Accent Homes ‘Dwellings’ home series proves that less is more in his new line of custom home designs. ‘Less square footage doesn’t mean you have to give up the functionality of space or the beauty of design, it means your space is designed smarter and more effectively while the architectural and interior design elements create a look and feel of exceptional substance’.

Join in the fun of the 2011 Fall Parade of Homes and visit a Dwellings design at Parade of Homes #259 in the ‘Lakes of Blaine’ and #9 in ‘Whispering Pines’ in Shoreview.
