our design and build process
Step 1 - Get Inspired
Lets discuss the details of your block , source a site plan , and google earth your land so we have a feel for the area.
- We will listen and collate your “Wish List” thoughts, room requirements ( number bedrooms, bathrooms, media etc)
- We love to meet you on site and discuss your ideas and perhaps provide our observations on site and the “marrying up “ of Wish List
- We provide a written updated evaluation of your site and Wishlist and, if you wish to ,we can assist with ideas to meet financial obligations
Step 2 - Let us create an impression of yourself
Lets determine your goals, “personality” of your home, and styling ( traditional, modern, minimalist, Hampton etc )
- We both approve the Preliminary Agreement that allows us to engage the right Designer that has a “lean” to your styling, ideas and ensure we cover the scope of works you wish us to undertake.

- We present your Unique Concept Preliminary Drawing that are to scale and have one colour elevation
Step 3 - Define the details
While you absorb the plans and perhaps come back with a few changes, we:
