our process

We start with an initial obligation free consultation. This is where we listen to your brief, discuss basic concepts and get an idea of your style. This initial consultation where possible happens on the build/renovation site. We conduct thorough background research of the project site to gain a understanding of site conditions and any constraints. This enables us to take into consideration all of the factors involved prior to concept design including location, bushfire setbacks, flooding, existing materials and structures, weather and the list goes on. We take a very holistic approach to every design whether it’s a small kitchen renovation or a multi storey new build. This comes from our many years of experience as successful builders. There should be no surprises in the build !

concept design

All the information we have collated will be used to draw and model your project including a site plan, floor plan, elevations, sections and survey integration if required. We can introduce 3D perspectives, renders and walkthroughs so you get a good idea of how your project will look and feel.

working drawings

Once you are happy with your concept design we proceed to working drawings. These are a very detailed set of plans and are a prerequisite for the building approval process. Along with any consultants inputs /reports these are submitted for DA approval.

consultants

More often than not we need to engage professional consultants to assist in completing the full set of working drawings to submit to council for approval. This may include Soil Testers, Engineers, Energy Efficiency Consultants, Plumbers, Waste Water Consultants, Occupational Therapists and Building Certifiers.
