This Home Plan Makeover is the result of a recent think tank in which five women and Design Basics ’ designers transformed a popular existing plan, the Briarwood, 2956-33A-01 into a totally new plan, the Kingsley, 42047-33A-01

To allow you to follow the changes, the women ’s suggestions are highlighted in 15 numbers that correspond with the completed floor plan at right.

The original plan, the Briarwood, 2956-33A-01, is shown at left. The new plan, the Brinkley, 42047-33A-01, created by the group with the help of a Design  Basics’ designer, is shown below, along with photos of the participants. Their suggestions are highlighted in 11 numbers that correspond with the new floor plan at right.

To accommodate the changes, the original plan’s 1806 finished square feet grew to 2485 sq. ft.
