Roger Borland’s Book
Beyond The Floorplan: A Clear Path To Your Forever Home
A significant home involves thousands of decisions across architecture, interiors, landscape, performance, cost and construction.
What if your home could become the most treasured place your grandchildren ever knew—not because it’s flashy, but because it’s right?
In Beyond the Floorplan, renowned architect Roger Borland shares a fresh and practical guide to designing homes that last—not just structurally, but emotionally, functionally, and environmentally. Drawing on over two decades of lived experience, client stories, and tested systems, this book reveals what truly makes a family home exceptional.
Most modern homes underperform. They overheat in summer, freeze in winter, trap stale air, and cost a fortune to run. They may be built fast, but they’re not built to last. Beyond the Floorplan invites you to rethink what truly matters—offering clarity, confidence, and guidance at every step of the design journey.
This book is your blueprint for a healthy, high-performance, energy-efficient home that supports your wellbeing now and into the future.
