How to get the most out of the design journey
Whether you’re self building, renovating or extending your dream home, you’re likely to only do this once. So, it’s important to enjoy it and make the most out of the process, particularly at the early stages of trying and testing out concepts that will come together to form your home’s design.
The relationship between you and your architect or designer is key to maximising your project’s potential, so it’s important to choose the right person. Meet your architect to gauge an understanding of how they work and engage with projects and their clients. If the focus is only on the design outputs, you don’t necessarily get a collaborative experience. Find someone who offers a process you understand and you feel works for you, and the design will follow as a secondary output.
