Do you have the idea of being able to build your house, but have your plans changed? Perhaps the budget is not enough for the house design you had in mind. Or is the financing you apply less than the style of house you want?
If so, this blog is for you, that’s why I want to share with you the way to make it happen, and always looking for the ideal home design for you.
1. DESIGN AND PLANNING
This is the most important point to achieve it, for this you need the help of a professional who develops the plan of your house, this way you will not be improvising, crossing your fingers so that everything goes well. The work of an Architect is to plan and build digitally before starting the construction of your house, you will be able to visualize your project in a digital model and thus make better decisions.
2. ACTUAL BUDGET
It may sound logical, but this is where you must apply the formula (design + budget – Future works) hand in hand with your Architect, they will have to adapt the ideal design to the real budget, all this thinking of a work that looks complete, complying with the necessary and aesthetic spaces.
3. ADAPT TO CHANGE
for this, you will have to be flexible and give priority to what it deserves, for example, analyze if you really need 3 bedrooms at the moment since an empty space will be an unnecessary expense, or think about multipurpose spaces, such as using that bedroom as a study, or a secondary bedroom you use as the main one for the moment, remember that everything is thinking about the future of the design of your house.
I share with you an example of a house that we designed from 2 bedrooms and expanded to 3 bedrooms in the future.
4. DON’T SACRIFICE QUALITY
It is preferable to invest in a good construction with solid foundations instead of making up your project and having internal problems that sooner or later will take their toll on you, you can leave some finishes for another stage.
5. MASTER PLAN
Remember to always think about the design of your ideal house, a master plan is a complete design where you visualize the project in its entirety, keep in mind that it will not be incomplete because it is developed in stages, a good design must be thought about future growth, which the future expansion provides greater value, such as a two-story house design, but that the work built in its first stage looks complete.
