I just got my first customer who is willing to pay for one of my designs. Which presents a couple of dilemmas.
I grew up around contruction type people and I know alot of the terminology. I don't have the desire or time to take enough classes to become an architect but would like to take classes to become better at home design. I designed the home we built last year and my husband was the General Contractor.
Question 1: What type of classes would you take to make more accurate designs (or maybe more buildable would be the right word)?
Question 2: When I am asked if I am an Architect I say no, however how do I desicribe what I do, is it just a designer or is it more than that?
Question 3: When it comes to billing a customer ????????? no ideas there at all??
Question 4: Would really appreciate it, if someone has a design questionaire to give to a customer who has no idea what their design style is, that would like to share with me.
