How This Simple Step Saved Us Lakhs on My Project!
A young architect recently approached me with a nice design of a home interior.
His vision was clear but was somewhat confused about the potential challenges during execution.
That’s when I introduced him to the concept of masking.
A very crucial step often overlooked.
Masking is not just marking lines on walls and floors.
It is actually setting the stage for your dream project
Imagine a physical representation of the finalized design, where everything from wardrobes to bed back panels are carefully outlined, creating a clear picture before construction even begins.
The benefits it offers are numerous.
Firstly, early detection- Masking informs us about potential conflicts, such as structural beams clashing with plumbing systems, before they become costly problems later in the process.
Secondly, the clear and defined measurements during masking minimize the risk of major deviations, ensuring your design stays on track and avoids costly rework.
Thirdly, Identifying and addressing issues early on prevents costly rework situations, keeping your project within budget and minimizing waste.
Finally, last but not the least, the client gets a clarity of their dream. By visualizing the outlined design, they get an understanding of the layout, projections, and also overall flow of space. So no more surprises!
What do you think are any other benefits of masking?
Would love to know your thoughts on this.
