Newcomer home decoration complete manual (2)

The second chapter before the decoration and preparation

Second, how to prepare for renovation

Many people began to consider the decoration when signing a purchase contract or even not buying a house. Indeed, buying a house is, after all, the biggest investment in most people's life. So how do you go about preparing for the renovation?

1. Confirm the date of delivery

Decoration is usually better than one month in advance. Too long to prepare, not only unnecessary, but also allow yourself to suffer more time, because it takes to think; too short, the time is too hasty.

2. Plan and raise funds

How much does it cost to decorate a house? This is often the most asked by the owners. Because the prices vary from place to place, the grades, projects, and renovations of the renovation are different, so this issue is difficult to generalize. In general, mid-range renovations will account for about one-tenth to one-fifth of housing prices. For example, a house is 100M2, house price is 50 yuan (the old house should be calculated according to the market price of the corresponding new house), then the decoration section is 50,000 to 100,000 yuan is possible.

3. Handle the decorated couple's role

Decoration may sometimes become a fuse for couples to fight, so they have to focus on catching up. For several years, the following types of couples or family combinations have been found in home decoration:

1) Male and female assistants. In the decoration, the male owner usually carries the hostess. The husband and wife have the final say in the decision-making power of some affairs. The most typical of the female hostesses is silent, and some of them are assistive.

2) The woman is male assistant. This type of couple has a variety of situations: The first is the “wife management is strict,” and the man is basically afraid to snoring at the time of housework. At any time, it is: “My wife said...”; the second is the relatively high level of academic qualifications or knowledge of the woman. The male has relatively little knowledge in this area. At this time, the male majority is a relatively silent party.

3) The man performs the operation. In the decoration, the woman basically did not appear. There are many reasons for this. There may be situations where the woman is pregnant and the like is inconvenient to go out; the male owner suspects that the woman looks too sorry for everyone and does not seem to be willing to let her go out; the woman is too busy or on a business trip.

4) The woman conducts the operation. In the decoration, the reason why the man does not appear may be: the man is too busy, and some are even on long-term business trips; the man is in a high status and is not convenient to appear.

5) Titatively opposed. This kind of husband and wife is more than a young man, and usually he will quarrel because of some problems in the decoration. I met two couples, one pair because the hostess persisted in the problem of feng shui, and quarreled with the doctor's male owner. One noisy was for a month and the project could not be carried out; the other pair was the male owner who was too short. The size of some of the home's projects is often based on their own height, and is strongly opposed by the taller female host. Of course, at this time, I support the hostess. The design should be designed at an ordinary height (1.75m). This looks like coordination.

6) The husband sang women. Most of these couples can discuss with each other, mainly in higher education families. Both men and women have considerable knowledge and their views are more rational.

7) People to be married. Most of these are men and women who love to talk about marriage. Most of the situations are similar to those of the sixth category. Most of the male and female parties will discuss the decoration issue in a cordial manner before making a decision.

8) Parents do it. The probability of this type of occurrence is lower. It may be that the landlord has not yet been married. The house is the property that the parents bought for their son or daughter.

9) "single aristocrats" or single-parent families. Only the man or the woman, there is no contradiction between the owners.

In contrast, what type does your family belong to? The author believes that husband and wife should consult each other and respect each other as well, because the living room is the place where both parties live together, but the renovation should be based on one party, otherwise it will not only be difficult for the project to continue, but also Causes a waste of time and money.

4 decoration time choice

In addition to the issues that need to be considered above, there are two main considerations when choosing a decoration time:

1) The problem of idle time. General home improvement is best to choose when they are relatively free, if you have been working very busy during the renovation period, but still insist on decoration, then you better find someone you absolutely trust to decorate; otherwise, you still wait .

2) Weather factors. Many people are rumored that they cannot be renovated in some wet weather. In fact, there is no scientific basis for this argument. The only effect of wet weather on decoration is paint. If it is handled improperly, there will be whitening and mildew, but if handled properly, it will not be a problem.

Third, the decoration overview

The decoration mentioned here means "secondary decoration" ("one renovation" refers to the renovation performed by civil works). The decoration consists of three parts: interior design, construction and maintenance. Here, the project construction is mainly based on design.

Renovation, which is generally known as decoration engineering in a formal setting in the industry, is a comprehensive discipline. The installation is derived from the construction industry and is an extension of architectural science. It covers a wide range of areas and is inextricably linked with many disciplines, mainly including:

(1) Building structure: spatial structure, design style, natural lighting, architectural index.

(2) HVAC: indoor artificial lighting, air conditioning system.

(3) Water supply and drainage system: the supply and discharge of domestic water and sewage.

(4) Fire, safety and television systems.

(5) Decoration materials and supplies industry: Provide a variety of materials, finished products and semi-finished products for the decoration industry.

Decoration steps

For the steps of the renovation project, see the “Concise Flow Chart for Home Improvement Project” on the next page.

2. The composition of the decoration practitioners

At present, there are mainly five categories of personnel engaged in renovation projects:

(1) Graduates of interior design majors. This is the most professional family. The decoration engineering knowledge is more comprehensive.

(2) Graduates of architecture and structure majors. This is a more professional family. In some aspects, interior design professionals may have more advantages.

(3) People from related industries such as fine arts or engineering. These people have a certain amount of expertise.

(4) Apprentices from engineering construction teams. Has a wealth of construction experience, but generally less professional knowledge, lack of creativity, the construction of imitation practices.

(5) Other people.

Fourth, how to choose a qualified designer

In China, the major of cultivating interior design talents is mainly environmental art design.

No matter which channel you choose to decorate your company, look at advertising, or introduce friends, your first concern is to have a qualified designer at your service. This is why the author wants to select the contents of the interior designer before choosing the contents of the decoration company.

1 Skills that qualified interior designers should have

The front has already introduced the composition of China's current decoration practitioners, here to talk about what qualified interior designers, qualified interior designers should have what skills.

1) Good art expression skills. Including sketching, coloring, sketching, hand-drawn renderings, and model making capabilities.

2) Good computer skills. Skilled in AutoCAD, 3Dmax, Photoshop, Lightscape and Autodesk VIZ.

3) Good interior design basis. Including the flat composition, three-dimensional composition, color composition design basis.

4) Good interior design theory. Including Chinese and foreign architectural history, various periods of design style, ergonomics, color psychology, space planning.

5) Good foundation of relevant disciplines. Including the basic knowledge of physics, chemistry, electrical engineering, acoustics, and applied disciplines, psychology philosophy (including logic), budget science, public relations, and other marginal disciplines.

6) Good foundation for engineering construction. Including the basic knowledge of carpentry, puddles, water supply and drainage, electricians, paints, and metalworking, as well as a simple project budget basis.

2. If you know whether the designer is qualified

Xiao Bian believes that asking a responsible and qualified interior designer to trouble the owner's decoration will greatly ease the problem. However, how do you know if a designer is qualified?

1) Listen. The professional interior designer, based on his knowledge and opinions on the issue, is absolutely not convinced that this is a mature approach. Moreover, professional designers rarely use prosaic adjectives.

2) Look. Professional interior designers must have basic skills. This basic skill is not the use of computers, but the real hand-painted effort. The sketch paper hand-painted by the designer should be real, words, performance correct and in accordance with the perspective principle.

3) Test. Professional interior designers will naturally have some certificates such as diplomas, of which the most important are environmental art design or architectural design. Of course, the author does not reject self-taught people. After all, the industry sometimes needs understanding and enthusiasm.

How to use a good designer

If you are a good designer, you have to make good use of the designer. The owner often cannot make full use of the designer.

(1) Tell your designer what you think, tell him (her) what you need, what you like, and let your designer understand your cultural and professional background, lifestyle, and family composition.

(2) Don't overly limit the designer's ideas. When you tell the designer what you said above, you need patience to let the designer use his expertise to turn your immature ideas into something standard. You do not need to worry about this because you have the power to make changes and decisions for any designer.

(3) Hear the designer's program introduction and fully understand the designer's design ideas. If you can't understand it, you can ask him and tell your own questions. To dare to admit that you are not a professional, everyone has their own knowledge. Communicating with designers is the key to getting a satisfying work.

(4) When you have ideas, if the designer has objections, you should think twice about their opinions. This does not mean that you are obedient to the designer, but rather to your own property.

4. How can a designer serve you

As a designer, in accordance with the requirements of the owner, making the design suitable for its satisfaction is the only pursuit.

(1) Listen carefully to the basic situation of the owners and understand their needs, including lifestyle habits, personal hobbies, etc.

(2) The design must be based on the economic affordability of the owner, and the design made out of the project cost control line can only be a good and useless thing.

(3) The design style should be controlled within the acceptable range of the owner. A good design style is based on a combination of various factors. Apart from the above mentioned conditions, the involved contents include the age of the owner and the aesthetic ability.

Fifth, how to negotiate a design proposal

After you choose to decorate your company, the next step is to negotiate a design proposal.

Communicate with designers

Before everything is designed, communication is critical, and it all comes from the information you provide to the designer. So what are these messages?

1) Your own ideas. Tell designers about their own vague ideas, but this does not require very specific. And you have to stress that what you provide is immature ideas. Relatively speaking, you prefer that designers can provide better ideas, which is conducive to the full use of designers. What needs to be clearly stated is which level you want the house to be renovated into.

2) Tell the designer your career. You don't need to tell the other party where you work for. You only need to tell a wide range of occupations, such as company employees, artists, athletes, entrepreneurs, or teachers. Why should we care about this? Because different industries have their own characteristics of the industry, as the saying goes, "three sentences do not leave the Bank" is this truth. For example, civil servants want the house to be decorated as simple and generous as possible; and when a doctor comes home, he often does not like to see the wall of his home is still white.

3) Family members. The average family will have several people. As a small group, the decoration of the house has to take into account their situation. If there are children at home, safety issues must be considered in some renovation projects. For example, the balcony railings of some buildings are very short or have a large distance between poles. This may cause potential safety hazards.

4) Special members. This mainly refers to pets. Many customers who have pets tend to regard them as members of the family. In the renovation, they also need to take into account their factors, such as creating a small nest for them.

5) Personal hobby. This refers to some common hobbies, such as being sensitive to color, what kind of colors are particularly liked or disliked, etc. There are also people who have special feelings about specific patterns. For example, blue is a good color for a lot of people, but others do not like it.

6) Special hobby. This refers to a number of different interests, such as owners like to collect, may like to show some items. I have a customer collection tool no less than a thousand, the living room is placed a very sharp katana.

7) Lifestyle. This refers to daily life habits such as placing a treadmill at home or being a super worm, hoping that the home is full of network cables. I have a customer's home, there are three computers, there are servers, and almost every room has a network cable.

8) Special furniture. If you have a big piece like a piano, you need to take it into account when you start designing. In addition, the existing furniture should be moved into the future, but also take it into account.

9) Avoiding problems. Everyone in every place may have a habit of avoiding it. For example, in Guangdong, many people are jealous of decorations such as mirrors placed in the doorways, and there are people in some places who are afraid of patterns such as butterflies.

10) Religious beliefs. There may be some owners who have specific religious beliefs or ethnic groups, or Christians, or Hui people, etc.; in some places there is a habit of honoring ancestors. This is out of respect for ancestors; in some places there are some traditions. Customs, such as worshiping Guan Gong, etc.

2. Learn the design steps

After obtaining the above information, generally familiar designers will have a general idea, and relatively good designers can sketch the sketches immediately. After the initial approval of the owner, the designer can proceed with the next design, which will reduce rework.

In general, home improvement design is divided into the following stages:

1) Plan design. Mainly for the comparison of the program and the exchange of opinions between the parties.

2) Preliminary design. More in-depth design stage, the design project is basically shaped.

3) Construction design. After the owner agrees, it begins to draw construction plans.

3) Completion design. For home improvement, it is mainly to provide an as-built drawing of hidden pipes. However, many home improvement companies often provide this drawing.

Finally, see whether the use of materials meets the actual requirements and whether the collocation is reasonable. A dozen sheets of drawings are given to the owners. In fact, this practice is completely unnecessary. However, in order to embody “seriously working”, many designers often turn the design into a form that reflects the depth of the design through the number of drawings. The general home furnishing owners do not have specialized knowledge or personnel in this area to specifically review the designer's drawings. Therefore, they must be targeted and tailored to your house type and needs. As for the number of drawings, I think it is necessary to be able to explain the problems. The expression must be expressed. The explanation must be explained. There is also a specific implementation problem. Do not make the design useless.
