Designing Your Dream Home: What It Entails By Aspen Drafting & Design

Designing a new home is an exciting and rewarding journey. It’s an opportunity to bring your vision of the perfect living space to life—a place that reflects your personality, meets your needs, and stands the test of time. At Aspen Drafting & Design, we’ve been helping homeowners achieve their dream homes for over 37 years. Here’s what the process of designing a home entails and how we make it a seamless, enjoyable experience.

1. Dreaming Big: Establishing Your Vision

The process begins with your ideas. What’s on your wish list? Think about the number of bedrooms, bathrooms, and any unique features like a home office, gourmet kitchen, or outdoor living space. Consider how your family lives now and how your needs may evolve over time.

At Aspen Drafting & Design, we work closely with you to define your vision. Whether you have specific details in mind or just a general idea, we help refine your goals and turn your dreams into a practical plan.

2. Creating the Perfect Layout

The layout is the backbone of your home design. It determines how spaces flow and interact. Key considerations include:

• Functionality: How spaces will be used daily, ensuring convenience and efficiency.

• Lifestyle: Designing for your unique needs, whether it’s entertaining guests, raising a family, or aging in place.

• Aesthetics: Balancing beauty with practicality, making sure every room is visually pleasing and comfortable.

Our team at Aspen Drafting & Design specializes in crafting layouts that are as functional as they are beautiful. With experience in designing homes of all sizes, we know how to maximize every square foot.

3. Factoring in the Details

Details make a house feel like home. This includes ceiling heights, window placements for natural light, storage solutions, and more. Every decision, big or small, contributes to the overall look and feel of the home.

We collaborate with you to ensure your new home reflects your personality and style while keeping it practical. Our years of experience mean we can offer creative ideas and solutions you might not have thought of.

4. Navigating Building Codes and Regulations

One of the most critical parts of the process is ensuring your plans comply with local building codes, zoning laws, and HOA regulations. These rules can vary widely depending on your location, and navigating them can be overwhelming.

With over 37 years of experience, Aspen Drafting & Design has an in-depth understanding of Utah’s codes and requirements. We handle the technical aspects, ensuring your plans meet all necessary standards, so you can focus on the fun parts of designing your home.

5. Turning Ideas Into Reality

Once your plans are finalized, they become the blueprint for your builder to bring your home to life. A clear, detailed plan ensures a smooth construction process and minimizes costly changes or delays.

At Aspen Drafting & Design, we pride ourselves on delivering precise, high-quality blueprints that builders love to work with. We’re here to support you every step of the way, even after the design process is complete.

House Plan Design a Designers Perspective

The fact that I really enjoy what I do makes it very easy for me to get more involved with the client and really dig deep to get to the real wants and needs that my customer has for their new home design. This is very critical to the success of the design but more important to the construction and beyond of the home itself. I take very serious the fact that the good folks I work with are investing their hard earned money and in many cases making the largest investment of their financial life. Despite the fact that we have been mucking along in one of the worst housing industry dilemmas of all time I am still very optimistic that when a person is hands on involved in the plan design and then construction of their home project that overall they are in great shape as to actual value. If the home design process is done right then they make little to no compromise and get a home that fully satisfies them and this greatly increases the value beyond just monetary. In addition I spend a good bit of time on each custom house design making sure that every part is designed with the most value and lowest costs possible while maintaining quality above a typical “Builder Grade Home”

So in short whether you use our service or another custom home design service make sure to let your truest wants, needs and desires be known. Do not get in a hurry or try to rush the design process along, let it evolve and study it at every step. Look at the plan drawings as they develop and imagine standing in that Kitchen or sitting in the Den watching TV. Look around and envision what you see and what it feels like and make sure it is what you really want. Think about the experience of driving up to the house and think if you are going to feel full pride in its façade. Be open with your home designer and most of all do not be shy or hold back anything you think or feel about where the home design is heading. Make sure that your wants are more dominant in the design than the plan designers. Remember the custom home designer is a tool that you use to get what you want and that what the two of you are working on is far more than just boards and shingles. It is your “New Custom Designed Home” Don’t shortcut anything, live in it in every way possible until move in day arrives. Then you can sit back and relax and admire what you have created. I guarantee form experience that you will think and say what I have heard so many times “This feels like more than just another house” and when one of my customers says that to me I always reply “because it is truly yours”

Best of luck!
