our process

We’re always excited to gain insight into our clients’ vision and help bring your ideas to life through our resilient design and build solutions.

Once you have selected one of our architectural designs and have filled out the enquiry form, we’ll contact you for a Free Virtual or In-person meeting to go through an initial design consultation.

Our initial consultation will take you through an overview of our process, from time frames to fee structure, as well as discussing any custom specifications you would like to include in your project. 

After our free consultation, which usually takes 45 minutes to 1 hour, if you choose to move forward, we then enter a Preliminary Agreement. This allows us to conduct initial investigations of your site; which include liaising with our external consultants, assessing your site zoning and overlays, as well as research and assessment of relevant Council regulations and State guidelines 

After gaining clarity on your vision in conjunction with any site constraints, we provide you with an initial creative design concept tailored to your lifestyle and budget.

Once you’re ready to move forward, we’ll develop a formal contract to sign before progressing to the next stage.

Depending on which state your project is located within, we work with an Energy Assessment Consultant, BASIX or Nathers Consultant to determine the construction requirements of your site.

From there we overview and co-ordinate documentation, such as a Construction Certificate, and produce working drawings based on the approved design drawings for building approval.

Following the design and building approval, we introduce you to our licensed building partners and hand over the documentation and approvals for the construction of your home. Now that it’s time to build, you will have peace of mind moving forward with signing a HIA or MBA building contract (providing insurances and warranties) between you and one of our preferred licensed builders. 

Construction then proceeds using our custom resilient design specifications and materials, which are tailored to your home and site conditions. All of our materials are proven, measured and tested – meeting building compliance globally.
