Hey there, and welcome back to the Custom Built Podcast! Today, I’m diving into the tiny but crucial details in home design that often get overlooked—until it’s too late. Ever had a kitchen where drawers crash into each other, or a light switch ends up awkwardly behind a cabinet? These little design misses can cause major headaches (and expenses) down the line. I share real-life examples of tricky cabinet installations, misplaced outlets, and overlooked lighting that could have been avoided with better planning. Trust me, you don’t want to realize your fridge blocks the walkway after it’s installed!

So, how do you avoid these costly mistakes? I walk you through simple ways to visualize your space before it’s built—whether that’s taping out layouts, using 3D design tools, or just imagining how you move through a room. From cabinet hardware placement to smart lighting decisions, I cover it all. If you’re planning a renovation or new build, this episode will save you stress, time, and money.
