we were basically fully reconfiguring a 1920s terraced house - dropping floors, encroaching into then-basement space, bringing back of the house down to garden level, and adding new mass to give a more modern liveable footprint. you basically have a 12-14 month longeurs where you do make a whole heap of decisions about configuration, architecture etc but it's slow-moving and you have time to breathe and live with the decision-making.
when the builders come on site things get real and you have to make so many big (and small!) decisions daily... it is a bit of a mission.
house is like something off the modern house now, though, so all good ; )
