An exterior design project involves planning and enhancing the exterior of a building or house to create a visually appealing and functional space. The process typically begins with conceptual development, including meeting with the client, creating a budget estimate, and signing a contract. The designer works through various stages, including massing diagrams, space planning studies, and exterior elevations, to develop the exterior design. The project goals and aesthetic preferences of the client are key factors in shaping the design strategy, which includes considerations such as architectural style, materials, and color palette
