The Design Mistakes You Don’t Want To Make
When embarking on the journey of building your dream home, the excitement can often overshadow crucial design decisions.
However, these decisions can significantly impact your living experience.
Common Design Mistakes
Not Enough Natural Light: Homeowners should consider what is best for their home and ensure window placement is thoughtfully positioned. Other ways to boost natural light include using glazed doors where appropriate and/or incorporating skylights into the design. Getting this wrong and trying to improve natural light later can be very costly and impractical.
Failing to Plan for Future Family Needs: Without considering future requirements, homeowners might find their homes unsuitable as their family grows or as they age. For example, for double-storey homes, can a master bedroom be located on the ground floor, eliminating the need to go up and down the stairs?
Not enough Electrical & Data Inclusions: Overlooking the importance of your Electrical and Data inclusions can result in a home that’s not equipped to handle modern technological needs, leading to frustration and additional expenses later.
