Q

big house 大きな家（いえ） 大きい家

A

大きな家（いえ） 大きい家
Basically 大きい and 大きな are the same.

大き is an adjective that can be a な adjective and い adjective and 小さい and 小さな (little) is the same. A few other adjectives also have i and na forms. Both can be used before a noun. Only the i-adjective forms can be used at the end of a sentence.
The na forms of the adjectives tend to be used more with subjective and abstract notions like mondai (問題) [problem] or eikyō (影響) [influence], hence ōki na mondai (大きな問題) [a big problem], or ōki na eikyō (大きな影響) [a big influence], whereas ōkii is common with objective, tangible, and measurable things.
