Space!
Contemporary homes for sale in Tucson feel spacious. Great rooms, open kitchens, high ceilings, oversized windows, doors, and rooms that open to other areas are the designs that are seeing the most demand. Huge master bedrooms and closets are also a part of this trend.
Simplicity
Contemporary homes in Tucson offer simplicity. There are fewer, but larger, rooms. Formal living rooms are typically non-existent in contemporary design. There are more multi-use or bonus rooms, split bedroom floor plans, open kitchens, and abundant storage spaces. The intent is a simple design that maximizes the flow and space available in a home.
Clean lines
Tucson's contemporary homes for sale also feature clean lines. The arches and cathedral ceilings of the 1990s are no longer evident. High ceilings and huge doors/windows are now the most popular in home designs. Sliding walls are now an almost standard feature in higher-end homes for sale in Tucson. (The 12' wall slides open revealing the living room.) Large, usually square, kitchen islands are typical as well, with high-end appliances. Chef's islands are becoming popular. These are dining areas that protrude from the kitchen island allowing for in-kitchen dining. It's a replacement for the breakfast bar.
