Expert Recommendations

Professional insights to optimize your design phase

Define Your Priorities Early
1

Define Your Priorities Early

Create a clear list of must-haves versus nice-to-haves before starting. This prevents scope creep and keeps the project within budget.

Consider Future Expansion
2

Consider Future Expansion

Plan for potential future additions like extra bedrooms or garage. It's much easier and cheaper to design with expansion in mind from the start.

Budget for Engineering
3

Budget for Engineering

Allocate 15-20% of your design budget for engineering solutions (HVAC, electrical, plumbing). These systems significantly impact comfort and efficiency.

Natural Light Optimization
4

Natural Light Optimization

Position large windows facing south for maximum natural light and passive solar heating. This can reduce energy costs by up to 30%.
