Home projects have a way of morphing over time. A simple bathroom update can turn into a total redesign in no time. So how do you plan a renovation, where do you start? That’s easy. You call Aleto Construction Group. We will talk with you about your project, what you want to see design-wise, and most importantly how you will use the space. We dive into the details of what your current “pain” is for your spaces, and what functionality you want to improve, and then work with that in mind toward your new space, all while keeping your budget top of mind.
Preparing for Your First In-Home Appointment
As you prepare for your first in-home appointment, you should be thinking about what works and what doesn’t work in your existing home. This is personal for each home and each homeowner. It is not uncommon for two people living in the same home to feel differently about these spaces.
Considering Functionality and Design
As you think about functionality, you should also be thinking about design. What colors do you like? What materials do you like? Many come to us without really knowing what their style is, and that is okay! Our designers will work with you on solutions to your functionality and design aesthetics.
Uncovering Your Design Style
Homeowners often come to us and say – I don’t know what I like, I don’t really have a style. Which more times than not, isn’t the complete truth. By working with our designers, we can uncover your design style that you didn’t know existed. We often ask our homeowners to look for inspiration photos on Pinterest, Houzz, or in magazines and share those with us.
Using Inspiration Photos to Define Your Style
One of the most helpful avenues for both us and the homeowner is to have the owner save all the photos that have something in them that they like or something that they absolutely do not like. By studying the photos, we can pick out minor details that the photos have in common and help you define what you like. Now, why do we ask for the things you don’t like? Well, people often know what they don’t like more than they know what styles they are drawn to. By giving us ideas of things you don’t like, we can help you identify the styles that you prefer.
Adapting Spaces Within Your Existing Footprint
Back to the spaces morphing into more than you anticipated…when you are living in a space that isn’t functioning well, you may think, my house isn’t big enough, and I need an addition. This is true in some cases and not the case in others. When we come to your home and listen carefully to the “pains” that you want to alleviate by renovating your home, you may be surprised that we may suggest modifying your spaces within the existing footprint of your home in a manner that will allow the spaces to feel bigger and function how you need.
Our Goal: Functional, Beautiful, and Budget-Friendly Spaces
In the end, we want to help you love your home more by creating spaces that are functional, beautiful, and within your budget. So remember, you are not in this alone! We are here to help you design, renovate, or build the spaces of your dreams! We are here to help you dig into your needs and then build you the spaces that you desire. We build for you!
