Run cat 5/6 and coax everywhere. Think about tv placement and run speaker wires for in-wall mount speakers and run some outside to patio. Have sheetrock guys cut out speaker holes. Gas to patio. Easier to do when under construction and much harder when insulation and walls are in. Closets and kitchen pantry cant be too big!

Another tip is to go to recently built homes to get a feel for the size of rooms. When you find a master bedroom you like measure it and make notes. You can do this for every room in the house. It helps when discussing plans with whoever designs the house.
One idea I got was to have bricks on an interior wall. I didn't know I liked it until I saw it in another house.
