Our Process
A collaborative approach to creating spaces that work
Consultation & Discovery
We begin with a detailed conversation about your vision, goals, budget, and timeline. We visit your site, understand your context, and ask the questions that matter.
Duration: 1-2 weeks
Concept Design
We develop 2-3 design options exploring different approaches to your brief. These include sketch plans, 3D visualizations, and mood boards to help you envision the possibilities.
Duration: Typically 3-4 weeks
Refined Design
Working from your preferred direction, we refine and develop the design based on your feedback. We explore materials, finishes, and specific details that bring the vision to life.
Duration: 2-3 weeks
Planning Documentation
We prepare detailed planning drawings in accordance with Victorian requirements, including design statement and planning application support. Council pre-lodgement meetings can help streamline this phase.
Duration: 4-6 weeks + council time
Construction Documentation
Following planning approval, we develop comprehensive construction documents with technical details, specifications, and coordination with engineers—everything your builder needs.
Duration: 4-8 weeks
Construction Support
Though not required, we can provide site administration, reviewing submittals and recommending design decisions as construction progresses, ensuring your vision is realized.
Duration: Ongoing
