Planning Your New Home Build

The first and most important steps to any home build are finding the right builder, and then the planning. Having a well-laid plan will allow you to customize your home to your unique needs. It also reduces cost-overruns and provides a roadmap for your project manager and all the trades working on the project.

Falcon Building Solutions in Edmonton shares rooms to think about when dreaming up your new home building project: 

The kitchen

The kitchen is one of the most important rooms in the home. It’s the center of everything, the space where family and guests gather together. When designing your kitchen, there are many components to consider. Beginning with the layout, you’ll want to ensure it accommodates everything you want. This could mean including an island, an appropriate amount of storage, or any other features you want to add.

For instance, the design team at Falcon Building Solutions can suggest ideas like walk-in parties, glide-out shelving in your cabinetry, an eating nook, gourmet appliances, stone countertops, and more. 

The bathrooms

When planning bathrooms, you should also look ahead to the future. Will you be expanding your family? Then you should opt for that additional bathroom. Do you plan to age-in-place? Then ensure a bathroom with an accessible walk-in shower is your home building plan. 

Then comes the fun part of choosing features, fixtures, and faucets. Alongside choosing materials for backsplashes, flooring, fixtures, and more, there are other features you can add to make the space feel like your own personal oasis. This could be a jet tub, a steam or rainfall shower, heated floors, or a bidet. Not every bathroom in your home needs to have every bell and whistle, but they can still look great with the proper design and materials. 

Optional rooms

Alongside your standard living spaces, there are optional rooms you can plan for in your home’s design. Many home designs include a ‘bonus room’. This room can be used as a family room, den, or even home office. Other optional rooms could be a playroom or home school space, home theatre, games room, or a wine cellar for the adults. When you’re designing a custom home, you can plan in these special spaces that are unique to your family and your needs.
