• The key to any self-build project is getting the
  design right from the beginning. The fact that
  you want to build your own home means youre
  trying to escape the limitations created
  spec-built mass market houses and looking for
  something more perfect for you.

• A common misconception is that home designing
  can only be done by qualified architects. With
  the best home building guide and tips, you will
  be surprised that you can actually design your
  new home to come out even better than an
  architect-designed home.

• Can I self-design? Planning a self-build
  project without involving professionals such as a
  package home supplier or an architect does not
  normally seem like a realistic idea. But some of
  our regular readers and people who seek home
  building tips have successfully done
  owner-designed schemes.

• You can do your own designing if you have the
  right resources. The first step is to find the
  best home building guide. From this resource, you
  will be able to learn more about your plot or
  property, make considerations based on your
  lifestyle and establish your taste.

• There are home building design software that can
  help you develop a 3D layout of your new home.
  You can also use the features of the software to
  map out rooms and to try out new things. With
  good software and helpful home building tips, you
  can find yourself arriving at your dream home
  even without a professional architect. You,
  however, need to share your plans with
  architects, builders and all the other key
  stakeholders in your building project.

• Benefits of using a qualified architect A home
  designer is essentially the first professional
  you will employ after going through the best home
  building guide. The designer will be the person
  to help you in finding the best builders and will
  also give you invaluable home building tips.

• When you hire a professional designer, you will
  not simply be paying for their drawings but also
  their knowledge, skill, and experience. In fact,
  the drawings are usually the last product that
  the designer will give you.

• Architects will normally make several sketches
  and share them with you before coming up with the
  final drawing. When drawing the sketches they are
  usually thinking about how the home will be
  built, the proposed budget, the structural and
  environmental implications and even the building
  regulations that are applicable. Some of these
  things should be considered during the initial
  design phase otherwise they end up impacting the
  project heavily.

• Alternatives for architects Sometimes you
  really dont want to use an architect maybe to
  save on cost or perhaps because the project is
  very simple and straightforward. In this case,
  you can use a good CAD package in the design work
  and get home building tips from a professional
  designer when you need it. You might also prefer
  working with an engineer or a surveyor.

• There are many new home builders today who
  prefer building with package companies. These are
  building companies that guide you through the
  entire process of building a bespoke home from
  the designing to the building. You could also buy
  a home building guide and commission a local
  builder to construct an off-the-peg design.
