We offer a range of services to help you define and realise your home and lifestyle vision.
DON’T KNOW WHAT’S POSSIBLE OR WHERE TO START?
Maybe you would like to take a smaller step forward, clarify your thinking before fully taking the plunge.
-
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you're after more room, or you want your current space to better suit your needs. Alternatively, you might have a vision that needs a professional touch to make it real. No matter the scenario, this pivotal phase is all about plotting the course for what comes next in your journey.
We'll dive deep into what your site can offer with a comprehensive Masterplan Potential Report to explore unleashing your home’s potential. During this early stage, we blend inspiration, seize opportunities, and acknowledge past constraints and surroundings to craft a unique story for your personal space.
This isn't just a casual chat; it's a service where we go beyond talk. We provide you with something tangible, something you can ponder and explore. It doesn't mean your project is fully designed, but we introduce you to the potential of your future home in a simple snapshot.
HOW IT WORKS:
• You send us all relevant property information, titles, real estate plans, property photos, pinterest boards
• We have a preliminary phone chat and ascertain what you are wanting to achieve out of the consultation process.
• We assess your project and plan our meeting.
• We meet for approximately 2 hours to inspect the home (or the equivalent process via a video conferencing service) and outline your project.
• We then email you our Masterplan Potential Report for you to consider.

TO HELP YOU STAY IN YOUR HOME AS YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES OR MOBILITY CHANGES YOUR HOME MIGHT NEED SOME ADJUSTMENTS.
We can help you with that with our Liveability & Access Review.
-
Looking at downsizing? Trying to figure out how to stay at in your home as your mobility and care requirements change? Planning for your own future or that of your extended family?
Smaller homes and single-level dwellings don’t always automatically translate into appropriate environments to live in comfortably, independently and safely as you age.
As your circumstances, or those of your loved ones, change, it’s important to consider how the home can best support and empower them to continue to live independently.
Our Liveability & Access Review can help.
We review your home or potential new home against your evolving needs and life circumstances. This service provides practical, commonsense ideas and recommends liveable design features to help with access for everybody, every day and at all stages of life.
The report covers liveability aspects including:
• entry accessibility
• navigation in and around the home
• easy and cost-effective adaptability
• responsiveness of the home to changing needs.
MAYBE YOU’VE ALREADY STARTED YOUR PROJECT, BUT HAVE REALISED THAT IT’S TRICKIER OR MORE TIME CONSUMING THAN YOU THOUGHT?
We able to tailor our services to suit, whether you what a design review of what you have begun or now what some help during the construction. We can help.
-
If you already have some plans, but feel they are not fully resolved and you would feel a review of them would be useful we can do this.
This consulting package offers an evaluation of your current concept designs, focusing on their suitability, functionality, and sustainability aspects. Our goal is to collaborate with you in scrutinising your project plans, ensuring that the design aligns with your requirements and yields the optimal outcome. Whether you're an owner-builder or collaborating with another designer or draftsperson, we bring our design expertise and innovative thinking to your project. Our objective is to examine your plans to maximise resource utilisation, resolve design challenges, and fulfill diverse design objectives.
If you find yourself concerned that your current designs don't align with your initial brief or fall short of your expectations, you may be feeling stuck, lacking fresh ideas, or sensing a need for more thorough design consideration. Our consulting package can be delivered at multiple stages of your design development, but it is ideally suited for the schematic design or concept stage.

We know that during the construction of a building the process may be daunting, time consuming, technical, and confusing. It can be stressful monitoring progress, checking the correct materials and techniques are used, communicating with contractors, and resolving issues.
We have decades of experience of project management during the construction phase. This includes progress reporting, administration of contractual conditions, assistance with builder queries and financial administration of the contract.
We can provide this service for your build, even if we weren’t involved in the original design.
Don’t struggle through this critical phase.

Our Process
If you haven’t worked with an architect before, it can be helpful to learn about the different steps involved in the process.
The fundamentals of each project are the same regardless of scale or budget.
We’ve defined the process simply below, though if you wish to delve deeper we’ve got more info
1. Define and Refine
We believe that to create the best outcomes for our clients we need to work with and listen to them. This is where we start the listening. Here we explore the first opportunities and desires for your project.
2. Design
This phase is where we develop the ideas and design the project. We delve further in understanding how you spend your time, what sets your story apart, and your ideas and desires for your project. By understanding these we can design joyous, personalised, tailored spaces that hold significance for you.
3. Documentation
We capture your requirements, the construction codes and authority requirements needed for the building permit and construction in a set of technical documents. These documents lead to more accurate contractor quotes, reduce the risk of costly surprises, and lead to better results during construction.
4. Delivery
During the construction we work together with your, the contractor and consultants to deliver the project.
