When planning an addition, there are many necessary items to consider, such as region, market demand, craftsmanship, style, and materials. The answers to these will determine the return on your investment. Some additions, like a second bathroom, will return most if not all of your investment. Other additions, like adding offices or additional suites, may or may not. The most important consideration is to plan your improvement to align with the other homes in your neighborhood. You can add a full marble bath with gold-plated fixtures in a tile bath neighborhood, but the likelihood of recouping your full investment is unlikely.
The whole point of many additions is to satisfy your need for comfort and beauty. If making your investment back when you sell is not a primary consideration, and you have the time and money to spend, do what satisfies you. There are building codes, but no specific rules for design. If that full marble bath makes you happy, go for it!
A house addition, unlike many remodeling projects, will probably require permits. The assistance of an architect or designer will help you avoid making costly, time-consuming mistakes. Their design skills and specialized training allow them to offer solutions as well as come up with interesting, unusual, and effective materials to save money and time. You will benefit when a pro takes your needs and tailors your new addition to meet your unique requirements.

Mississippi's generally hilly landscape reaches its highest point (806 ft/246 m) in the northeastern corner of the state along the Tennessee River. The most distinctive region in the state's varied topography is the Mississippi Delta, a flat alluvial plain between the Mississippi and the Yazoo rivers in the western part of the state. A wide belt of longleaf yellow pine (the piney woods) covers most of southern Mississippi to within a few miles of the coastal-plain grasslands. Important there are lumbering and allied industries. Most of the state's rivers belong to either the Mississippi or the Alabama river systems, with the Pontoctoc Ridge the divide. The climate of Mississippi is subtropical in the southern part of the state and temperate in the northern part; the average annual rainfall is more than 50 in. (127 cm).
