About Home Design English (HDE)

Empowering homeowners, architects, and builders with transparent construction costing, architectural floor plans, and real estate tools.

Our Mission

Building, renovating, or investing in property is one of the most significant financial and personal commitments anyone will make. Yet, homeowners and investors frequently encounter opaque contractor quotes, unpredictable material expenses, hidden closing costs, and fragmented information.

Home Design English (HDE) was built to solve these real-world problems. We replace guesswork with transparent, data-driven calculators, practical floor plans, and reliable cost estimation models tailored to local construction practices.

Three Dedicated Regional Modes: Solving Real Problems

Construction standards, regulatory fees, and currencies vary drastically across the globe. Rather than offering generic formulas, HDE features three purpose-built regional modes designed to assist and address real challenges:

🇮🇳 India Mode (INR)

Addresses the lack of transparent construction pricing in Indian cities. Accurately estimate civil construction per sq ft rates, modular interiors, flooring, and exact material bill of quantities (cement bags, steel in kg/tonnes, bricks, and sand). Includes instant regional land area conversions (Gunta, Bigha, Cent to Sq Ft) and Home Loan EMI calculations.

🇺🇸 USA Mode (USD)

Solves remodeling and home addition budgeting hurdles for American homeowners. Calculate accurate costs for kitchen remodels, bathroom renovations, home additions, swimming pools, outdoor kitchens, and pickleball courts, along with local property tax assessments and rent-vs-buy financial analyses.

🇦🇪 UAE / Dubai Mode (AED)

Eliminates fee ambiguity for international and expatriate property buyers. Accurately calculates upfront acquisition expenses including Dubai Land Department (DLD 4%) transfer fees, mortgage registration, trustee admin fees, and ongoing community service charges across Dubai freehold districts.

What We Provide

Cost Estimation Calculators: Instant, localized budget calculators covering turnkey civil construction, flooring, painting, modular interiors, and structural bill of quantities (BOQ) for cement, steel, bricks, and sand.
Architectural Floor Plans: Curated 2D residential floor plans and room layouts with dimension guidelines, natural lighting considerations, and functional space planning.
Land Area Converter: Seamless conversions across regional Indian land measurement units including Gunta, Bigha, Cent, Ground, Biswa, Kanal, Marla, and Square Feet.
