Remodeling for an architect-homeowner
1. Let the owner lead the design process. Enhance the design with suggestions along the way.
2. Know the language of architecture. © 2008, Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All Rights Reserved.
3. Route all communications with vendors through
your office.
4. Keep the owner posted on costs at all times. Changes may improve the design, but strain customer relations if they
