Top designers and architects recommend making a lists of essentials which are to be included in the home, so that they can create an ideal plan. This idea is also important for homeowners who decide to purchase a plan as it helps focus the field.

The first consideration must be the number of people who will reside in the home. This will help in determining the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, size of dining areas, and even necessary storage and garage space. A general rule of thumb is one bedroom per child, a master room, and at least one guest room. Decisions must be made about how many attached baths will be included as well. Do the guests need a separate bath from the kids?

The list should be narrowing down by now. However, there are still a few more decisions which will assist in refining the field some more. Often the kitchen is the central gathering area. The location of it as well as the amount of space needed for appliances, surfaces, and cabinetry should be decided. Also, dining areas must be determined. Will the family use a sunny breakfast area, a formal dining room, or an island in the kitchen to dine? How much room will you need in those areas?
