HDA's Home Plan Magazine, DesignAmerica(TM), Redesigned

http://www.houseplansandmore.com () —

Leading home plan company, HDA, Inc. has redesigned its magazine DesignAmerica(TM) with consumers in mind. DesignAmerica(TM) has proven to be a mainstay for those looking to see the latest best-selling home plans and the hottest trends in the housing market today. Now, HDA has redirected the focus of its latest issue and is providing consumers with even more terrific photography within its articles and plan pages.

DesignAmerica(TM), which has been published both as a quarterly and bi-annual throughout the last five years, is distributed nationwide to Lowe's stores. The upcoming issue, on sale June 30th, addresses the increasing popularity in country style homes. Filled with nearly 200 designs that are specifically created for old-time, undeniable country charm, consumers browsing the pages of this issue will immediately be taken back to a time that was simple and easy. But, these country house plans (http://www.houseplansandmore.com/homeplans/country_house_plans. spx ) featured in this issue are now filled with every possible amenity imagined making life anything but primitive. Filled with tremendous interior photography throughout, DesignAmerica(TM) aims to please.

DesignAmerica(TM) has really come a long way from its premier issue. Not only have we added higher quality photography, the content of the articles is better integrated with the overall theme of each issue. And, we began printing the magazine on higher quality glossy paper to better enhance the stunning photography being featured. "All of these factors have created a winning combination that is both stylish and upscale," says Kim King, HDA's Publications Manager.

In addition to the spectacular photography, the house plans (http://www.houseplansandmore.com/) offered in this magazine are also now available in the increasingly popular PDF file format. Purchasing home plans from this magazine in a PDF file format allows the consumer to resize and reproduce the plans to fit their needs. However, it is important to realize that the actual design of the home cannot be altered with a PDF file.

All the home designs featured in DesignAmerica are available for purchase from HDA, by calling 1-800-373-2646 or visiting www.houseplansandmore.com (http://www.houseplansandmore.com) . HDA offers a staggering collection of more than 17,000 house designs ranging from country style plans to luxury house plans (http://www.houseplansandmore.com/homeplans/luxury_house_plans.a px)

. With this vast quantity, everyone searching for a home plan is sure to find exactly what they are looking for. For more information on this magazine, please visit www.designamerica.com (http://www.designamerica.com) .
