Construction becomes more predictable when important design questions are resolved before mobilization. Drawings do not need to answer every future aesthetic choice, but they should remove major uncertainty from structure, dimensions and service coordination.
1. Room sizes and furniture
Review actual furniture footprints and circulation rather than judging rooms only by dimensions.
2. Stair geometry
Confirm risers, treads, headroom, landing positions and railing interfaces.
3. Door and window openings
Coordinate sizes, sill levels, lintels, façade design and future curtain or blind requirements.
4. Structural grid
Column and beam positions should support the architecture without creating avoidable clashes.
5. Wet areas and shafts
Align bathrooms, kitchens and service shafts where practical to simplify plumbing and maintenance.
6. Ceiling zones
Allow space for AC, lighting, pipes and access panels before decorative ceiling concepts are finalized.
7. Exterior materials
Resolve support details, waterproofing and maintenance for stone, screens, cladding and projections.
8. Electrical and lighting intent
Furniture, appliances and use patterns should guide outlet and lighting positions.
9. Waterproofing interfaces
Roofs, terraces, balconies, planters and wet areas need proper levels and detailing.
10. Finish transitions
Flooring, thresholds, skirting, door frames and cabinetry should be coordinated dimensionally.
