Home deco has to do with feelings and every day life.

I would ask how many people will be using the space (kids? what ages? pets?) and how the space will be used. I would also probably ask how long the clients were planning to stay in the space; maybe they're upgrading just for resale. Timeline for the project (do they need it all done for next week? or is this a project they need to do in stages due to budget constraints?) Sorry, I don't have 5 questions, but these are things our kitchen designer asked me over the phone when we reno'd our kitchen, so she could draw up some initial plans for our first face-to-face.
