Process & Services
It starts with a relaxed and casual conversation where time is taken to learn more about your individual needs and what your specific requirements are for the project.
If you decide to engage my services, I’ll delve deeper into discussions about your budget and what can realistically be achieved on your site. The primary goal is to ensure that your vision is aligned with the expertise I provide. When you're happy with our direction, we're both happy. Typical services stages below:
Pre-Design & Project Brief
This initial phase involves gathering essential information about the client's needs, preferences, and the specific requirements of the project.
Concept Design and/or Design Development
In this stage, we translate the project brief into creative architectural concepts, developing initial design ideas that encapsulate the vision.
Town Planning - Planning Permit
Navigating the town planning regulations along with advice from consultants to secure the necessary planning permits, ensuring compliance with local government requirements and guidelines.
Construction Documentation - Building Permit
This phase involves preparing detailed construction documents to facilitate obtaining a building permit, ensuring every aspect of the design is clearly outlined and compliant with regulations.
Tendering to Builders
I can assist in the tendering process by inviting builders to submit offers for the project, carefully evaluating and selecting the most suitable construction partner.
Contract Administration & Completion
Throughout the construction phase, I provide ongoing contract administration to ensure the project is completed to the highest standards, overseeing the work until final completion.
