There are many Builders in Omaha. This can lead to hard decisions for new home buyers in the Metro. Widhalm Custom Homes, Inc. is setting themselves apart by offering architecturally inspired arrangements that are influenced with design elements from legendary architects like Frank Lloyd Wright and Joseph Eichler. Your home is more than a container that holds people. It is an expression of yourself. It really should be used as an opportunity to show your individualism, Widhalm explained, “I feel good design should provoke emotion like your favorite song might. This idea should be incorporated into your home.” Pete Widhalm of Widhalm Custom Homes is a new builder with a fresh outlook for residential design. His approach to form focuses on balance. You will find an emphasis on the way the house flows using defined but very open spaces. You will also find continuity with every surface of the house, not letting the most cost effective approach dictate the form of the home. Widhalm is convinced that the way a space functions is equally important to how it feels. His plans incorporate large eat in kitchens with pantries near the garage, laundry near the bedrooms, and are designed for modern living.
