ARCHITECTURE & CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT www.keralaarchitect.com Deciding on what to build Once you have found an appropriate site, you will need to consider what type of house you wish to build. Talk to the Engineering Division of your Local Governing Body about site restrictions, look at neighbouring properties, use magazines such as 'Indian Architect & Builder' or 'Parpidam' for inspiration; because getting inspiration is important to maintain the enthusiasm of construction. Ultimately, you will need to employ an architect or home designer to come up with a workable design - that is also tailored to your budget. An alternative to an individual designer is the package supplier who offers project management services all the way upto offering a full 'turnkey' service - i.e. you sign off the whole project to the company that designs and executes the project. All you have to do is to turn up to move in after 9 months. This service, although is more expensive, will relieve you of the nitty-gritty of construction. But, be sure to verify that the Company is reputed and will be using quality materials for construction. This can be assured by mentioning the specifications of materials including sizes and brand names, in the contract document.
