Custom Home Design: Here are some key questions a home designer should ask a new client to understand their vision for their new home: About their lifestyle and needs: Who will be living in the home? Ages, hobbies, and needs of each resident are important to consider. How do you typically use your time at home? This helps determine which spaces need to be prioritized and how. What are your entertaining habits? Do you often host large gatherings or prefer intimate settings? Do you have any special needs or accessibility considerations? This could include anything from mobility limitations to dietary requirements. What are your pet peeves in your current home? Understanding dislikes can help eliminate issues in the new design.
