Heading for a first consultation with an ID soon?
We know that there can be LOADS to consider - but here are the 5 things you can prep - so you can make the most out of your time! ๐ค
1. ๐ ๐ผ๐ผ๐ฑ๐ฏ๐ผ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฑ ๐จ
Have a vision for your home? Compile links, photos, and jot your ideas down! ๐
It would be even more helpful if you could share details of your lifestyle - do you and your SO share a toilet in the morning?
Perhaps having a his-and-hers sink would fit well into your lifestyle! Little details like this help your ID design a space thatโs perfectly tailored to your daily life ๐
It would be great to share with then a copy of your floorplan as well. ๐
2. ๐๐๐ฑ๐ด๐ฒ๐ ๐ธ
Setting a clear budget gives your designer a solid foundation to work from, allowing them to prioritize the most important aspects. ๐๏ธ
With their guidance, you can select materials and finishes that fit your price range without sacrificing the look you want. ๐คญ
This way, you can make informed choices and avoid any surprises!
3. ๐ง๐ถ๐บ๐ฒ๐น๐ถ๐ป๐ฒ โณ
Knowing when you want your home completed and discussing its feasibility with your ID helps set clear expectations.
A full renovation usually takes 2 to 6 months, depending on the scope of work, manpower, and resources. ๐ทโโ๏ธ
But the biggest factor is ultimately, YOUR decision-making! The renovationโs progress hinges on your timely approval of key choices like layout, tiles, and colors, allowing your ID or contractor to continue the work without delays.
4. ๐๐ฒ๐ป๐ด ๐ฆ๐ต๐๐ถ ๐๐ผ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐ โฏ๏ธ
If you believe in Feng Shui, itโs a good idea to consult with your Feng Shui Master before meeting an ID. ๐
There may be specific requirements based on your homeโs Feng Shui, and sharing these early helps ensure a smooth design process!
Once youโve gathered your Feng Shui guidelines, pass them on to your ID, ASAP! โฐ
This allows them to incorporate those elements into the design, as well as TIME to make any necessary adjustments before the reno starts. ๐๐งฑ
5. ๐ค๐๐ฒ๐๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐ ๐๐ผ ๐ฎ๐๐ธ ๐๐ ๐ฌ
Lastly, come prepared with questions for your ID! This is your opportunity to seek clarification on anything that might be unclear. ๐ฉโ๐ป
Ask about their previous projects, preferred materials, renovation process, or anything else thatโs on your mind.
This will also give you insight into their working styles, most importantly, if they are able to vibe with you. ๐ค
