    essential to these projects is the design of inspiring spaces that enhance the experience and wellbeing of both staff and clients

  • approval and building process

    development application | construction certificate | contruction documentation | project administration | complying development consent

    From sketch concept stage we progress to the Complying Development or Development Application for council.

    Critical to this stage is the incorporation of the elements of good sustainable design, from building materials to energy use.

    The subsequent stages are Construction Certificate which gains approval from Council to start work on site, & Construction documentation which informs the builder of all that is required on the project.

    We have a small group of trusted builders we choose to work with that provide quality workmanship for a realistic cost and timeframe.

  • fees

    Building is, for most people, the greatest investment ever made.

    We believe in transparency of costs & offer each stage as a predetermined Lump Sum Fee based on the brief & scope of work required, which is then invoiced on a monthly basis.

    This allows you to budget accordlingly and maintain control over your overall project cost forecasts.
