Why are neoclassical construction costs usually higher?

• Elaborate decoration: moldings, reliefs, columns & arches, artistic iron railings.
• High-quality finishing materials: stone cladding, premium paint, fixtures emphasizing aesthetics.
• Meticulous construction: skilled craftsmen required, longer completion time than minimalist modern houses.

Tips to Optimize Design & Budget

• Prioritize façade proportions (columns–arches–doors) before adding moldings.
• Use light moldings selectively instead of dense patterns to save cost and avoid visual clutter.
• Stone-clad ground floor for durability and dirt resistance; upper floors with exterior paint resistant to dust.
• Choose powder-coated iron railings with minimal patterns to reduce maintenance costs.
• Plan technical shafts, loggias, skylights in advance for natural light and ventilation, reducing electricity usage.

Conclusion
