Architecture Stages of Home Design 1. First approach By Gohisa Arquitectos .

A conversation with the client to find out their initial needs and a meeting is arranged. In this they discuss their intentions and aspirations, which will be reflected in the architectural program.

2. Presentation of packages

We have designed a set of packages of materials and finishes from similar ranges. These packages vary in value per square meter and can be modified to customize them according to the client's needs. This price will serve to define a base budget as a starting point for the following design stages, giving the opportunity to make changes as they are assessed in the process. After this, the contract is signed. A visit to the project site is carried out to collect information about its qualities, understanding through analysis the visual and climatic characteristics, study of the terrain through a topographic survey, the environment, current regulations in the area, among others. In addition, detect the availability of the different basic services. This is done in order to take advantage of the potential of the site according to the client's intentions and corroborate the feasibility of the project. 3. Preliminary studies
