The Nine Step Planning Guide

1. Take a virtual tour Florida Rustic Cabins and view our floor plans and decide what you like or what is close.
2. Draw all the rooms you would like to their approximate size 1/4"= 1', cut them out, and arrange them according to what you think would facilitate the best high traffic areas. Try to save time & steps. Keep traffic along walls & try to not to move traffic diagonally across rooms.
3. Measure furniture and then plan them into rooms.
4. Make sure you have plenty of room left over for traffic.
5. Plan the windows with the approx. size keep in mind that windows are escape routes, that have uniform size on each side of the cabins, that they are evenly spaced, and that they provide maximum air circulation.
6. Plan your heating system.
7. Go through plan & fine tune it.
8. Mentally walk through the cabin imagining each room, where furniture and appliances will go. Make sure it feels right or keep fine tuning.
9. Draw floor plan on grid paper, label approximate rooms + door & window
   sizes, how they open. Make other notes on the side. If you are
   modifying an existing plan, note any changes on it
