    • Work collaboratively. Differing design styles can be happily merged into a remodeled space. Work together to weave together both of your personal design styles and remodeling ideas.
    • Stay current on the progress. It’s important for both of you to know how the project is progressing. Keep a master schedule of completion goals, and update each other if the project falls behind.
    • Keep the lines of communication open. Don’t wait to let your partner know you’re unhappy with something. Approach any concerns you have immediately in a constructive way that allows the two of you to work together to solve it. Avoid accusatory language and placing blame. The bottom line is that everyone must periodically compromise.
