Hello and welcome to the latest issue of Modern Home Builders. In this month’ s magazine, we are invited inside the home of architect Tyler Kobick. His home renovation project demonstrates how the curated reuse of salvaged materials can influence design, respect original features and embrace modern functionality. Turn to page 16 to see how Tyler brough his vision to life.

We also gain a personal insight into diversity and the significant role that mentorship can play in developing a career, in our feature from Kristine Anderson.“… these voices guided me and helped form the foundation of who I am as an architect and a leader” she says.
Finally, we look at energy use and how digital technology is a game changer for home energy efficiency. Author Frédéric Godemel states that by“ embracing intelligent home energy solutions, we can each play a meaningful role in shaping a more sustainable tomorrow.”
