Second, what should I pay attention to when measuring the house for the first time and the next construction site?
First, the blank room:
1, carefully compare the building structure with the original plan (that is, the drawings provided by the owner).

Third, what should be designed for home improvement?
Miss. Wandero said that "less is more" is wonderful.
Just like writing, the fewer strokes, the harder it is to write. In fact, "simplicity" does not mean "simplicity", there are too many things to express.
First, the basic element design. Relationship among space, block, point, line and surface.
Second, the design of color elements.
Third, light and shadow (artificial light and shadow, natural light and shadow) element design
Fourth, display design.
Fifth, the use of materials.
So all these should conform to aesthetic principles, proportion, balance, rhythm and so on.
Good design is definitely not piling up, but an organic combination of various design elements. Design that conforms to aesthetic principles is eternal, otherwise it is rubbish.
Four, about the problem of home improvement design drawings
Drawings are actually the language of designers. What designers want to express is to express instructions through drawings.
Because home improvement designers face not only professional construction workers, but also ordinary people who don't know much about drawings.
(The principle of home improvement design drawings is: the owner can understand it, the construction personnel can understand it, the supervisor can understand it, and the material buyer can understand it. )
Therefore, the expression of home improvement design drawings is very different. As far as drawings are concerned, the principle of being easy to understand should be popularized first, which is very different from the drawings of mass costumes. (Official service drawings must be standardized and professional)
So it is necessary to explain that the drawings about home improvement are not necessarily so standardized. Even text descriptions, renderings, on-site language descriptions and even axonometric drawings, which are not commonly used in public places, are one of the drawing styles of home decoration.
Many people, especially some professionals, look down on home improvement designers, saying that their drawings are not standardized and they can't draw drawings. Hehe, in fact, they simply don't understand the industry characteristics of home improvement.
5. How to make the owner accept your design?
In fact, this problem is one of the problems that all designers will encounter. Of course, I often encounter such problems. Now always talk about my experience, maybe it will help you a little:
First, self-confidence is the most basic quality of a designer. An unconfident designer is definitely not a good designer. Never follow your master's feelings, but be good at guiding your master to follow your feelings! When the owner puts forward his own views, you can first confirm that his ideas are reasonable. (one is really reasonable, and the other is reasonable, but there are flaws. You must try your best to point out his defects, avoid your truly reasonable aspects and focus on analyzing the defective aspects. Of course, after the master leaves, you should learn from the reasonable side of the master. When we meet again, the general host will believe you very much.
Second, be good at listening, don't express your opinions in a hurry, even simple questions, don't say them right away, especially when you meet your host for the first time. Ask more questions and talk less. If the owner asked you to make a statement at that time, you must refuse and let him have expectations for you.
Third, every scheme must be flawed when you first meet the owner. First of all, it must be explained that this is my own idea, and there must be a distance from your idea. This is to say what I think so that you can have an opinion. Don't rush to sell your plan.
Fourth, try to borrow a donkey from the slope. When there is a big gap between your idea and the owner, make appropriate concessions, don't be opinionated, avoid design problems, and talk to him about other issues. When we meet again, we should consider the opinions of the owners, and then change our thinking, which is different from last time, but we should be clear that after careful consideration, your opinions are reasonable, and I have also seriously considered and changed my plan.
To be a designer, the most important thing is to have a sense of service, always be sincere and serious, and do the details well. You should first consider what the host didn't think of, so that the host can trust you.
Sixth, I am most opposed to making too many promises at the beginning, which will make the owners' desires swell. Principles must be adhered to, and what is not allowed is not allowed. Oppose drawing renderings at the beginning, and let the price go.
These are some of my experiences, and I hope I can help you. But it is very important to strengthen the cultivation of your professional knowledge. Only when you have something in your stomach can the owners really trust you.
For a competent home improvement designer, listening carefully is an essential element.
I think a competent and excellent home improvement designer should first have rich professional knowledge and experience. The second is sincerity and seriousness. The specific performance is that you have good communication skills, otherwise how can you know what the owner wants?
Of course, every designer does it differently. I think at the very least, he should be able to listen and guide his master to express himself.
Many self-righteous designers never listen to the owner seriously, and they talk big when they arrive at the scene or see the drawings. If a doctor "looks, smells, asks and feels" seriously, and when he sees a patient, he says, I know what's wrong with you, and you take my medicine, then the doctor must be a charlatan.
Seven, the current types and working methods of home improvement companies
(1) Design companies, which must have strong design ability and high popularity. Can charge high fees, positioning in the high-end decoration range.
(2) Economic companies, which have general design ability, reasonable fees and general construction management ability, are positioned in the popularization scope.
(3) Comprehensive companies should have certain economic strength, large scale, and be able to go up and down, but they should have certain standardized management capabilities.
(4) Construction companies, with strong construction ability and certain popularity.
(5) For other companies, home improvement is only a part of the business project, not based on it.
