Planning a House - Larry Angell, 21 Pages
It has been my pleasure over the years to plan out and build many homes. There are as many house plans as there are dreams in the minds of future homeowners. A good house plan requires many hours of visualization. If you can walk through your home in your mind, then you can usually see how the preliminary plans need to be drawn up. There are many things to consider when planning a home. A lot has to do with the size of your pocketbook. In our modern economy I would seriously urge you to start out with an affordable design. Apart from the size of the home, there are some things that will need to be planned out so you can have a home that is valuable and functional. Here are a few things to consider.
• Do you want a second story?
• How about a garage? (How many cars)
• How many bathrooms?
• Do you want a full dining room or just a kitchen with an island/bar?
• How much storage space do you need?
• Do you need a mud room with exterior door in the laundry?
• How many windows and what sizes?
• Do you need a home office?
• Do you need a big kitchen? (Do you cook a lot or do you just grab takeout every night)
• What kind of roof will you need? (What is the local climate)
• What height will the ceilings be?
• Will stairs be a problem in the future?
• Will there be any decks?
• Will you have open-space plans or closed-space plans with a lot of walls?
• Does the land have a view?
• How can you best enjoy the view?
These are just a few questions that will help you while creating a good floor plan. My favorite way to draw up floor plans is to grab a sheet of paper and a ruler. There are however many really good software programs that are useful in creating interactive floor plans. If you want a simple program that’s really easy to use, I would suggest going to
