What types of homes do you specialise in designing?
We specialise in creating stylish, comfortable and functional homes ranging from modern minimalist designs, timeless cozy retreats, or a timeless architectural design. Our focus is on designing spaces that reflect your lifestyle.
How involved will I be in the design process?
Your involvement is essential! We work closely with you throughout the entire process, from initial concepts to final plans, making sure your ideas, preferences, and lifestyle needs are at the centre of the design.
How long does the architectural design process take?
The timeline varies depending on the projects complexity, but typically, the design process can take anywhere from a few weeks for concept designs to several months for full working drawings and council approvals. We’ll provide a clear project timeline upfront and guide you through each stage.

What is the cost of your design services?
The cost will always vary from project to project depending on the complexity and size, and we provide a tailored fee structure based on your specific needs. During our initial consultation, we will discuss your budget and provide a clear breakdown of costs upfront.
