Were the designers cooperative with you on all these things?
Were they reasonably priced?

The primary revisions we made to our Gardenia are:
Stretched everywhere we could: 6' to garage; 8' to golf cart garage; 4' to the breakfast nook/front door wall; 2' to master bedroom but we used only 1 foot for the bedroom itself, used the other foot to widen the his/her closets; and 8' to lanai (unfortunately, our site is too narrow for more side stretches)
Added cabinets above wash tub in laundry room; raised all cabinets in laundry room to ceiling
Added ceiling fan pre-wired for lights in breakfast nook and dining area (which we will likely use for sitting/reading area)
Added ceiling lights (aka can lights) in laundry room and garage (replacing the despised fluorescent lights) and also in the foyer (replacing the dead bug-collecting and hard to clean hanging light)
Keyless entry pad to garage (so we don't have to bother with remote or house keys on walks, bike rides, visits to neighbors...)
Added bay window to front bedroom
Added an outlet in every closet, for charging cell phones or for who knows what other use
Added hose bibs to each corner of house and to front porch area and to lanai
Plumbed in hot/cold and drain lines for adding an after-build wash tub in garage
Walled in the open side of the lanai on the opposite side the master bedroom sliders for privacy
