New Home Designing

i like a lot of designs and styles and i don't know from were to start. what is the first step!

We started with several of the books of house plans that you can get at any newstand. We looked them over and selected the floor plans we liked best and then discussed their pros and cons until we got close to what we wanted.

We then bought a set of the plans we liked best and started modifying them to suit what we wanted. We made some rooms larger, moved the laundry room, added a pantry, changed some ceiling heights, etc until we were happy with the result.

We also changed the outside look of the house somewhat to eliminate as much wood as possible so there wouldn't be a lot of outside painting.

My wife has a hard time seeing things in three dimensions so I also bought a 3-D architect design program so she could see the rooms in three dimensions and arrange her furniture the way she wanted. This helped with the placement of door, windows, closets etc.

I have to write a paper in English and basically make a presentation for a panel of judges. I picked that I will create a new home design for a sub division for my "job" and I need to know how to go about creating this?

I would first draw a floor plan for your new home design...Be sure to include some neat features that you would want to include in your home.....then, in your paper, describe the floor plan with all of these neat features. Pretend you are talking to a potential buyer and are trying to sell them this house. The more that you can describe about these neat features, the better your paper will be!!!!

I am moving to a new home and it is quite small, what are some design tips to make the rooms in the home look bigger? I have heard painting vertical lines on a wall will make it look bigger, is that true? I would appreciate websites that would help answer my question. Thank you! :)

Basically it boils down to 10 things... See source for a nice list.

I think I got a great deal on a new build home. Now it's time for the landscape, wiring, and design center appointments. I'm cool in all areas except the design center. Light fixtures, faucets, etc, I can do myself. Is it smart to upgrade the counter tops, cabinets, sinks, etc (major items)? The costs of these items are rolled into the price of the home at closing. OR should I wait until my finances permit and do them myself? The only thing I'm sure on upgrading is the carpet pad.

Kitchen and bath upgrades (especially master bath) are key resale selling points. Also crown molding in the primary living areas is a big plus. Good luck.
