What we do
HOUSE DESIGNS
The decision to build is not to be taken lightly. It is usually the largest investment people involve themselves in and this is why we aim to provide a design that works. Together with a client brief, we listen to the ideas of the clients.
Our conceptual plans take into account all aspects of the proposal balancing structural against aesthetics, site constraints against building codes, energy efficiency against conducive design.
Our concepts are viable, both for the clients and for the builders. Read more…
DRAFTING
The design is the single most important element in creating a new building, whether it be a residential or non-residential building. Drafting is a complex task that is best entrusted to a professional.
It is not simply a matter of ‘drawing a set of plans’. Every building project is unique and has its own complexities.
It is the task of the Draftsperson to understand the complexities and maximise the possibilities of the site. Read more…
MULTI DWELLING DEVELOPMENTS
With townhouse design or any multi dwelling developments it’s critical to talk a professional. Market knowledge, budget advice and project specific expertise from a town planning professional won’t just save you time, it can ultimately save you money, too.
Risks are inherent in all development projects, but ‘educated risk’ is key to being prepared for managing issues. Read more…
TOWN PLANNING
Dealing with the planning process can often be an intimidating and confusing experience. Our knowledge of the planning process plays a huge part in having planning drawings approved with a limited amount of fuss.
We have worked with councils all over Victoria, Western Australia & Tasmania and have an expert understanding of the complex planning process.
PRE-PURCHASE ADVICE
We provide a pre-purchase phone service to assist prospective investors in making sure they buy the right property. We have a large number of developers who rely on our expert opinion to ascertain planning concerns & advantages on each property they evaluate.
One phone call can save a lot of heartache down the track and will enable you to purchase with confidence. With the advent of Google Maps, Nearmap & other planning websites, our advice is up to date & accurate.
6 STAR ENERGY RATINGS
Energy efficient design is part of our philosophy and we incorporate this into every one of our projects from the concept stage. Being energy raters as well as building designers enables us determine how to reach the best design possible.
We combine these two elements, which inevitably saves the client money down the track in untimely alterations to the drawings.
3D MODELING / RENDERING
We can quickly produce 3D models to showcase how your house or unit development will look after construction. This is a great tool for the home owner to grapple with the eventual outcome & understand the impact of design decisions.
We believe 3D architectural renderings give a better feel than photo-realistic mock ups and add excitement to the design phase for our clients. We can of course provide both.
INTERIOR DESIGN
We have talented building designers who are up to date with modern interior design trends. We have completed both residential & commercial interior designs resulting in a space you can be proud of
Our services include consultations with the designer, colour & materials selection presented in colour boards & full internal renders to illustrate the finished product.
COMMERCIAL/RETAIL/HOSPITALITY DESIGN
We have a long history of beautiful commercial, retail & hospitality buildings evidenced by the photos in our gallery. Many of these designs have won both state & national awards for the innovation shown. We have worked with many local councils & major corporations to design. document & contract administer the build stage of each project.
Our senior designers are experienced at working with local planners & corporate executives and can draw on a long list of local sub-consultants to complete each project on budget & on time.
