The Importance of Design for your Remodeling Project

It all begins with a vision whether you are looking for a massive project such as a Whole Home Remodel or a more centralized project like a Kitchen Remodel or Bathroom Remodel.   While we would love to just be able to get to work, it is impossible to do so with the proper design to cover not only the physical attributes you will see, but all the measurements and layouts that will bring together the many pieces of the entire puzzle.  The Design of Your Remodeling project should not be overlooked. 

 

Value beyond just the sketch

Instead of asking “What is the cost to design my remodeling project?”, it is better to ask, “What is the value of not having them?”  Remodeling your home or any other room can usually be a long and challenging process. Of course someone can begin construction with a simplistic idea of what you want and work out the details as you go. This can get very ugly very quickly and can cause lots of disagreements. Instead, the most successful remodeling projects have detailed planning and design completed well before any construction begins. 

Make your vision very clear 

Having Design Plans is the absolute best way to avoid surprises during construction. While some surprises still may occur, they will be vastly reduced and centralized. Many will go about a remodeling project without a design in place, and then it gets challenging when additional costs appear.  Taking the time to measure and select the materials will allow everyone to understand and agree to exactly what to remodel and how everyone will achieve it. 

Setting up satisfaction in advance 

Managing everyone’s expectations is highly advantageous for both the remodeler and the homeowner.  Deciding on everything from the layout to the material details minimizes misunderstandings and maximizes the objective.  All of this of course influences the amount you are going to spend, and more importantly it helps avoid cost surprises. Even making adjustments become less aggravating since you immediately appreciate the physical changes along with time changes and price changes. In the end, the Design simply has a tremendous impact on everyone’s satisfaction. 

 

Designing is a separate process

Do not minimize this important step in your remodeling project. You need to appreciate the Design Process and individual steps for a Successful Design. You will spend money on this separate from the actual remodeling, so ensure to do it right just like the design we shared here to create this Whole Home Remodel!

The aesthetics is obviously a major consideration for most Remodeling and Home Addition projects. But one must also consider the experience of how the space will be utilized from a functional perspective. The perfect project has a well-balanced design so it fits everyday usage. If a space can be used in an ideal way, then the cosmetics becomes an added bonus. Understand the layout Any remodel or addition to your home should start with the layout and the way the space functions. Ensure to see how you use the current space and attempt to create a clear picture of what you need to alter. Perhaps you may need to knock down a wall, or create a new opening, or merge space from two small rooms to create one large room. If the space doesn’t work good and it is difficult to move around, then then cosmetic upgrades aren’t to make much of an improvement.
