Your brief for this combination
Use this plan when discussing handover planning in a terrace house, with light and privacy as the priority. The current decision point is design review. Confirm that these assumptions match your actual home before using the checklist.
A terrace interior plan should trace daylight, ventilation and services through the depth of the home. Any building alteration needs its own professional feasibility assessment.
Work to define: Handover planning
Define evidence of completion before the final walkthrough. Use an agreed issue list, operating checks and a record of supplied information rather than relying on a general impression of the finish.
The working deliverable is walkthrough, issue and document register. For this property, start by resolving the following constraint: Record changes in level, existing services and areas needing professional assessment.
Design for light and privacy
Test daylight, glare, views and privacy against the actual window arrangement. A layout may need different treatment during work, meals and rest rather than one permanently open or closed condition.
Apply that priority to the walkthrough, issue and document register: Describe the daytime and evening privacy and lighting requirements separately. Discuss the result against the actual terrace house layout rather than treating a similar photograph as evidence that the detail will fit.
At the design review stage
Resolve the details that affect fabrication, services and finish interfaces. Compare the drawings with actual selected items and retain a clear record of approved revisions.
The expected stage output is: Coordinated drawings and a dated decision record for fabrication and installation. Resolve the light and privacy question within this record, so the priority is carried through the handover planning work rather than lost between drawings, quotations and site instructions.
Four questions to resolve together
- For handover planning: What evidence will demonstrate that each agreed item is complete?
- For light and privacy: Which daily activity needs privacy without losing its required light?
- For this terrace house: Record changes in level, existing services and areas needing professional assessment.
- Before completing the design review: Check that each selected item and retained interface appears on the current drawings.

Property requirements and scope boundaries
Have the actual proposed alterations and existing building condition assessed by the appropriate professionals. An interior planning checklist is not structural or building approval.
Record existing condition, retained items, quantities, named products or specifications, exclusions and responsibility owners. Pricing and feasibility require the actual scope and site information. This scenario does not establish a market price or confirm that any work has been approved.
