The Renovation Planning System is designed for homeowners planning a renovation who want clarity before decisions start compounding.
It helps you understand what to decide, in what order, and why - so you can plan properly before layouts change, money is spent, or trades are locked in.
This system focuses on decision-making, sequencing and structure - not styling or templates.
Best used before major design decisions are finalised, but equally valuable if you’re already part-way through and want to plan smarter from here.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by where to start - or worried about making the wrong call too early - this system gives you a clear, logical planning foundation.
What this system does
The Renovation Planning System helps you:
-
Understand which decisions actually matter at each stage
-
Avoid making good decisions at the wrong time
-
Reduce costly backtracking, rework and delays
-
Feel confident moving forward - even if you’re managing the renovation yourself
-
Plan calmly, with structure and clarity
This is the thinking behind a well-planned renovation.
What’s Included
This system is made up of four core planning frameworks, designed to be worked through in order.
Each framework builds on the last, so nothing important is missed.
1. Decision Order Framework
A clear planning sequence that shows you:
This framework helps prevent rushed or premature choices that often lead to changes later.
2. Layout & Planning Framework
A practical framework to help you understand how:
-
layout
-
flow
-
function
-
and spatial planning
influence every decision that follows - from fixtures to finishes.
3. Renovation Mistake Map
A breakdown of the most common renovation mistakes, including:
Designed to help you avoid problems before they appear on site.
4. Renovation Readiness Checkpoints
Simple checkpoints throughout the planning process to help you:
-
know when you’re ready to move forward
-
identify gaps before committing
-
pause confidently instead of pushing ahead
This ensures decisions are locked before the next stage begins.
How the system is used
Most people use the Renovation Planning System to:
-
Plan decisions before engaging builders or trades
-
Sense-check layouts, selections and timing
-
Guide conversations with designers, builders or suppliers
-
Stay organised and confident as new decisions arise
It becomes a reference point you return to throughout the renovation — not something you use once and forget.
