Tnarayan, there are a number of online services providing house plans and elevations........Google is your friend. Most of these provide stock plans and elevations that you can have modified for an extra fee. Some even provide custom designs, working with you for a truly custom plan...........however, none of them are free and you'll spend close to the same amount of money for custom services that you would spend with a local home designer or architect who will work hand in hand with you. Part of the design process is getting to know the client, their needs and the normal functions and working back and forth to refine the concepts........while it's not impossible online, it's more complicated. Another consideration is that while the packages on line are fairly complete, they are basic boiler maker packages and very generic. Your local designer will be able to include any special details or information required by the local permitting authorities as hopefully they already have a working relationship with the authorities.

Hello, Expert Community. I have just expanded my top floor room to convert it to a nice 300 Sqft, Home office and Home Gym divided by a wall which has opening of 4 feet wide between 2 areas. I am confused on design, materials to be used etc. For home office I am trying to find a solution for Standing desk that can be designed to sit and stand while working. A full bright color office without any wood colors. For Gym I am thinking about a few machines (Treadmill/Ellipitical+ plus a yoga area. Any reference pictures ideas are welcome.

Hello Chandni, Do you have a 3D view of the plan to use the wood. The suggestion on real wood material on external facade would depend on the likley placement. You may consider High Pressure Laminate sheets as well. They are durable, decorative, water and fire resistant. Thanks, Amit CORNERSTONE DESIGNS Bangalore.

Basically what i can understand now is priority is given only for vastu and other aspects of the design has been forgotten. My opinion would be redesigning the spaces along with vastu integration . A single idea of modification would not be feasible here. Please consider setbacks and other utility areas needed outside the residence as well ,for services integration. Thanks
