FAQs

How much do we need to invest in our project to design and build?

The total cost depends on several factors, including the size, complexity, materials, and level of finish you want. During the Initial Consultation and Schematic Design, we’ll discuss your budget and provide early estimates to ensure the design aligns with your financial expectations. We also help refine the scope to balance aspirations with affordability.

How long does the process take?

The timeline varies depending on the project’s complexity and approval requirements. Here’s a general guide:

  • Design and documentation stages: 3–6 months.

  • Approval process: 2–4 months, depending on council requirements.

  • Construction: 6–18 months, depending on project scale.

We aim to keep the process efficient while maintaining attention to detail.

What’s included your architectural services?

Our services cover the entire process, from the Initial Consultation to Handover. This includes concept design, detailed documentation, assistance with approvals, and construction-phase guidance. We also offer additional expertise in sustainable building practices and development feasibility analysis, tailored to your needs.

Do I need council approval for my project?

Most projects require council approval or private certification to ensure compliance with local regulations. We handle the submission process during the Approvals stage and work to address any concerns from authorities, making this step as smooth as possible for you.

Can I make changes during the process?

Yes! Collaboration is central to our approach. You’ll have opportunities to provide input during the Concept Design and Design Development stages. While major changes during construction can increase costs, we’ll always discuss potential impacts and find practical solutions.

How involved will I need to be throughout the process?

Your involvement is key during the design stages, as we’ll rely on your feedback to refine the design. Once construction begins, we’ll handle most of the day-to-day oversight, keeping you informed and involved only when decisions arise.

How do I get started?
