    Default Do you or Did you?

    I am not sure which is better to use "Do you" or "Did you"
    in this sentence below. Please teach me about it.

    <situation: One person is going to remodel his office.>

    And an remodeller asks a question to him.>

    " Ever consider adding a drawing room? "

    In this case,

    "(Do you) ever consider .....?" or

    "(Did you) ever consider.....?" is correct?

    Default Re: Do you or Did you?

    In this case "Did you ever consider adding a drawing room?" is correct.

    You could also use "Have your ever considered adding a drawing room?"

    or

    Are you considering adding a drawing room?

    or

    Do consider adding a drawing room. (as a statement)


    but

    "Do you ever consider adding a drawing room?" is not right
