If you are about to begin the exciting process of building a new
home there are several items of home design that you should take
into consideration.
First, there is the choice of the correct floor plan. As you look
at the floor plan design, look to see that there are plenty of
bedrooms as well as bathrooms for your family. In addition,
consider the amount of living space in the home. Will it meet
your needs?
A home design should also make mechanical sense. Plumbing should
be kept close together to prevent costs from skyrocketing. There
should be a location that is close to bathrooms for the water
heater. The furnace should be in a central location.
How many stories will you build the house? One story offers
easiest access to all the rooms, but two stories offer more
square footage at a lower price. Since foundations and roofing is
shared these costs are reduced in the two story home.
Additionally, a two story home can takes up less of the yard
space so there will be more room for outdoor living.
As you plan your home, be sure that you include accommodations
for special needs of your family. Stairs are often a problem for
one or more members of the family, so if building a two story
home, be sure to provide downstairs bedrooms for that family
member, even if it means that the master suite has to be located
on the lower floor. Kitchens should always be planned on the
ground floor in order to make them accessible for stocking.
You may want to add a basement to your home. An unfinished
basement is a great place for storage and mechanical equipment
for the home. Finished basements add more living space and are
good for extra bedrooms or game rooms.
After choosing the floor plan, look at the exterior design of
your new home. The exterior design will determine if your home is
Modern, Tudor, Colonial or some other style. Each of these homes
can have a similar floor plan.
When building the home you will find that there are several other
items that have to do with home design that are found. For
example, you will have to decide the finish for walls, ceilings
and floors.
The home is not finished until it has also been landscaped. Look
for shrubs and trees that fit with the home design and are the
right choices for your climate. By choosing the right trees and
shrubs you can have a very nice looking garden and yard.
You may wish to consult with design consultants about your home.
If you decide to make the decisions by yourself, be sure that you
do your research. Spend time reading about home design in books,
magazines and online. Take time to tour your city to see what
works and what does not work. If you have difficulty, do not
hesitate to consult a design professional. Their help may speed
your completion of that exciting new home.
