Generally I would do rough framing and then plumbing because there can be some large pipes that aren't flexible in their placement. Then HVAC if you're doing that, then electrical which can be worked around the other items.
So yes, rough framing I would do next, just keep in mind where your devices and fixtures and penetrations will go. Some walls may benefit from being 2x6 to have more space inside for utilities.
How high is your ceiling? I want to renovate my basement but the 7 foot high ceiling is limiting.
Thanks! The ceiling is 8 feet high, so comfortable. I probably will start cutting into the concrete this weekend to place the shower drain. Then I'll start putting into the framing for the new walls and partitions and duct soffits. I need to move some plumbing and wiring and remove a little more drywall in a few spots. So, that's probably the next few weekends.
So excited to see your vision come to life!
Good luck. I did a kitchen and a bathroom and yes it was too much but it eventually got done.
