  Many people dream of designing and building their own home, but don't know where to start. This book guides you through the process, making it an affordable, realistic and, above all, exciting option. Written by a practising architect, the book aims to provide the support and answers you will need, including where do you start? What are your options? What type of site are you after and how do you find it? What should you plan for and what processes should you expect and whose help you will need? What regulations will affect you and how will you gain planning permission? What should you consider when designing your home, inside and out and what should you look for in design drawings and how can you do your own?
