All projects involve the following stages;
Pre-Design
Preparation of the brief so we are clear on your needs, who will be involved, the budget and timeframes.
Concept Design
Sketches, inspiration & ideas are combined into concept sketches that are worked with until we have an agreed direction for the design.
Design Development
The concept sketches are developed further adding layers of information and detail until the design meets or most often exceeds your brief and is ready for approval.
Development Application (DA)
When we have a final design it is time to pull together all the information required for the lodgement of the DA and associated approvals. We may also recommend a Complying Development Certificate if you meet the legislation requirements, this will mean a single application that will replace the DA and CC process. We assist with the lodgement on the NSW Planning Portal and all correspondence with Council.
Construction Documentation
After DA approval is gained we provide more detailed plans ready for construction and to address any DA conditions and to obtain Construction Certificate Approval (CC).
Additional Services
Construction Phase Services
To ensure design intent is met during construction it is best to engage our services to work with you and the builder during construction until completion.
Schedules of Finishes and Interior Design
We work with interior designers as required or we can assist with preparing schedules of finishes and fittings for all the selections in your home or commercial property.
