		<description><![CDATA[    "People think that it's this veneer - that the designers are handed this box and told, 'Make this look good!'. That's not what we think design is.  It's not just what it looks like and feels like.   Design is how it works." - Steve Jobs  

Although volumes have been written in the pursuit of defining "good design", the above quote, taken from page 10 of the book Design Is How It Works by Jay Greene, may be the best summary of that elusive definition that I've found.  Makes sense - considering the source.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the custom home industry, there are basically two delivery methods: design/build and traditional bid and build.  Among design/build firms there are two delivery methods as well. There is in-house design and outsourced design. With in-house design, the architect or residential designer is on staff.  With outsourced design, the architect or residential designer works for him or herself, or for a separate firm.  In Austin, most builders outsource the design.  Shan Jenkins, of Jenkins Custom Homes, has done it both ways, and he strongly advocates the in-house design approach for a variety of reasons.  Some of his reasons, like the cost savings and time savings, are very practical.  Others, like the way the client has more control over the creative process, are less obvious to the casual observer.  Either way you cut it, however, it makes building a new home a better experience for everyone.]]></description>
