Before laying the first brick, one of the biggest decisions is this:
👉 How much space do you really need?
Your floor area affects everything—your budget, layout, permits, and long-term comfort.
Let’s break it down:
🔹 🏠 Under 50 sqm (Small & Smart)
Perfect for minimalists, OFW families, or small lots.
✅ Budget-friendly
✅ Quick to build
✅ Easy to maintain
💡 Best for: Studio-type, 1-bedroom, or tiny home projects.
🔹 🏡 50–80 sqm (Compact Yet Complete)
Ideal for small families who need 2–3 bedrooms and common spaces.
✅ Efficient layout✅ Suitable for 1-2 storey builds✅ Popular in subdivisions
💡 Best for: Starting families, newlyweds, or retirement homes.
🔹 🏗️ 80–120 sqm (Spacious and Flexible)
Offers more comfort, storage, and expansion options.
✅ Room for 3+ bedrooms
✅ Multiple bathrooms
✅ Option for outdoor space or garage
💡 Best for: Growing families, home offices, or future-ready homes.
🔹 120+ sqm (Premium Living)
Go big with open spaces, luxury features, or rental units.
✅ Flexible floor plans
✅ Ideal for 2-storey or duplex homes
✅ Higher resale value
💡 Best for: Multi-generational households, investors, or high-end builds.
💬 Here’s a Tip:
✅ Plan your floor area based on your needs, lot size, and future plans—not just your wants. A well-designed 60 sqm home can feel bigger than a poorly designed 90 sqm one.
