Custom Home Design
Collaborating with experienced architects and designers, we develop a bespoke home plan that reflects your lifestyle and maximizes your land’s potential. Our design process considers:
- Spatial Planning: Efficient layouts that enhance functionality and comfort.

- Sustainability: Integrating energy-efficient solutions to meet BASIX standards
Documentation Preparation
We handle all necessary documentation to streamline the approval process:
- Architectural Drawings: Detailed plans and elevations.
- Engineering Reports: Structural assessments and certifications.
- Energy Assessments: BASIX certificates and thermal performance reports.
- Site Surveys: Contour and feature surveys for accurate planning.
Approval Pathways
Depending on your project’s specifics, we pursue the most efficient approval route:
- Complying Development Certificate (CDC): For projects meeting specific criteria, allowing for a faster, private certification process.
- Development Application (DA): For more complex projects requiring council approval, we manage the entire submission and liaise with authorities on your behalf.
Regulatory Compliance
Our team ensures your project complies with all relevant regulations:
- National Construction Code (NCC): Adhering to structural, safety, and accessibility standards.
- Environmental Planning Instruments: Aligning with local environmental and planning policies.
- Home Building Compensation Fund (HBCF): Securing mandatory insurance coverage for residential building work over $20,000.
