I’m a registered architect by trade and let’s see, I had to spend 6 years in college and take god knows how many tests to get registered, so naturally, any idiot homeowner can just design a kitchen remodel themselves right? Or new deck? Or just “knock down these walls and open up this space” right?
Right.
What could possibly go wrong when you mix unchecked confidence, zero formal training, and a trip to the hardware store? A lot, actually. And it turns out there’s an entire Facebook page dedicated to proving that point on a daily basis.
Welcome to the world of “You Should Have Hired an Architect.” Let’s all take a minute to laugh at the people who ignored the old adage: Pay for a pro now or pay a lot more for them to fix it later.
