Start with the Basics
Start with the basics when you begin planning for your new customized home build. You can always build up, but scaling back from an elaborate plan can make you feel like you’re missing out. It’s easy to get carried away when you are ready to design your living spaces to the way you’ve always wanted. Rest assured that a customized home should be your vision come to life, but start from the bottom and work your way up.
First Consultation
This is where a contractor really gets to know the client – what they want, how much they want to spend, where they want to build, the entire vision. Whether you’ve known all of your life what you want or been inspired by a blog or social media design, this is where you start. We can help filter through all of the ideas floating in your head and evaluate your budget, the specifications, and how it relates to the desired location. Start here with the basics, the core of your vision, and add on as the process moves forward.
Design and Selections
Even in your design and selection phase it is important to focus on the main theme or feeling you want to flow throughout your custom home. Remember, it’s always possible to plan for an addition or change your mind about the details as you watch your vision become a reality.
Building and Construct
Even once you start the building, if you have plans that are too intricate and over the top, it will be quickly realized that the design or idea you had in mind may not work in the architecture world. Just keep in mind that your contractors should have your best interest at heart and should advise you on the right path, especially when you start to veer off.
