Design Your Home to Last for Decades
The book that teaches you how to design a future-proof home that adapts to different phases of your life.
A Home that Grows & Moulds With You
Every Corner Built for Long-Term Memories & Legacies
A Safe Haven that Adapts to
All Seasons of Life
Without any renovation or remodeling, will you feel 100% comfortable and content living in the same home in 20 years?
Let’s face it. Life changes, but your home and the location doesn’t have to be – once it’s designed to be a Future Home.
Most people are never able to stay put in the same home. It’s easy to think that various season of life requires a different dwellings – a 2 bedroom apartment when you’re single or newly married; a big suburban establishment when children come into the picture; then a modern version of that big house when your career advances; and back to the small unit when you finally become a empty-nester heading into retirement…
All this time, energy and money stressing over upgrading, remodelling, moving and downsizing…
Is it really worth it?
What if there is a way to create a home that is future-proof, a truly adaptable home for the different seasons of your life, no matter whatever life throws at you?
In Future Home Design, let’s rethink and be smart about your home, and design it to eliminate these problems once-and-for-all:
- You’ll never have to move out of the area you love to live in.
- You won’t need to worry about overcapitalising or budget blow-out.
- You won’t need to worry about looking for a new home every time your life changes.
- You won’t need to complete with the Joneses and worry about future resale value.
- You won’t need to put up with living in a home that’s too hot in summer and too cold in winter.
- You’ll have peace of mind knowing you’ve invested in what matters for you and your family.
Hi, I am Farinah Husodo, author and Practising Architect from Melbourne, Australia.
My wish is for every homeowner to be able to enjoy the dream home that they love to live in. A home that fits like a glove and you can build your life in throughout the different phases of life. Somewhere you can create memories over the years and leave to your next generation.
My architecture principle is to create simple, beautiful spaces, functioning to its original design intent for the joy of its users. I believe we can enjoy both beauty and function in our homes, just as nature around us blends these two elements. Beauty and function should be timeless, adaptable and pleasurable elements used to create our future home.

Does the world really need another book on home design?
Everyone deserves a safe and restful place they can call home. That doesn’t mean you need to be uprooted from where you are planted, just because your life changes.
Home is a vital need for every human, not just as a shelter or a building to protect us from the weather. It is a collection of meanings where we keep our memories and build our history, lives and legacy.
One thing that remains the same all over the world: a home is at the heart of everyone’s deepest longing and desire.
What set me on this journey was hearing stories during my time as a volunteer involved with rebuilding Aceh, Indonesia, after the tsunami, and back here in Australia, about the need for a lasting place to call your own. And how stressful and expensive it can be to move because your home is not designed for your current and future needs.
As an architect in the 21st century, I wrote this book to help homeowners get reliable information and advice that enables them fulfil their dreams of living in a healthy, comfortable home that they can enjoy with their family, friends and even pass on the legacy to their next generations.

What people are saying about the Future Home Design Book
I LOVE this book. I have read a third of it then had to get up and assess my own house for how to make it more pleasurable! I see something quite simple that I need to do to give the spare room a much more pleasant outlook. This book provokes creativity.
