CORE ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES
Time poor?
Dreaming of a delightful, well crafted space?
Do you want to invest in design that will simplify your life and stand the test of time?
This is your path towards thoughtful and inventive design solutions – especially for you – without the hassle.
This service takes care of your project – from go to whoa!
It starts with getting to know you, your project, and your site. Our services include all of the investigation and design stages, obtaining relevant permits, commissioning and liaising with all relevant, the project documentation, builder selection, and ends with a tight construction contract, a well managed construction process and follow up after the construction is complete.
1. CONCEPT DESIGN
This is the part where we listen intently, closely look and learn more about you, your project needs, and your site.
The Concept Design stage tests and translates your project requirements (your brief) into design strategies and concept sketches, giving your project clear direction, personality and added value.
2. DEVELOPED DESIGN
Our mature process of testing and developing the design: this stage transforms an approved Concept Design into a more comprehensive level of analysis, refinement and presentation. We examine aspects of function, structure, aesthetic, practicality and build-ability into a completed Developed Design.
3. TOWN PLANNING APPLICATION
Does your project require Statutory Planning Approval?
We consider planning requirements for the start of the process. This significantly reduces the likelihood of material changes being imposed by Council on the agreed design, and may also make the entire planning permit process run more smoothly.
4. CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTATION
Preparation of comprehensive set of technical drawings and specifications suitable for building approval, builders’ costings, and for construction.
These documents allow builders to produce accurate quotes, and assist in achieving extraordinary high quality results during construction.
5. BUILDER SELECTION
This stage allows us to identify and evaluate potential builders and specialists and their costs, timeframes and conditions, for the construction of your project on your behalf.
6. CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION
We provide checks and measures within the contract to ensure that the quality of build, timings and cost are all adhered to – minimizing your risk of budget and time blowouts, and ensuring that what is intended is well understood and built that way.
