Design Process
1. Current Lifestyle Requirements
Looking at your preferred lifestyle, your hobbies, interests and favourite pastimes. We consider how worthwhile your proposed renovations are with regard to maximising your lifestyle and the overall liveability of your home while ensuring your proposed design responds to your site and to your lifestyle.
2. Future Lifestyle Requirements
Are you thinking about starting a family? Or perhaps you have school age children that will soon grow into teenagers? Or maybe you are approaching your retirement years? As part of this service, we will look at likely changes in the future and how to best manage these within the context of your house design.
3. Design Solutions
Based on your specific needs and immediate requirements, we will look at social, economical and environmentally friendly house design options that will resolve your current needs. Based on your long term lifestyle needs we look at design solutions that will ensure that your home offers you the highest levels of comfort and overall liveability now and into the future.
4. Budget Assessments
It is important to understand what you can achieve with the budget you have allocated. We will look at your proposed project and give you some initial thoughts on how far your budget will stretch. We will also discuss building costs, consultants fees and our design service fees within this discussion.
5. Over & Under Capitalisation
Will your project leave your property over or under capitalised? We are not financial advisors and recommend that you get professional, independent financial advice in relation to this question. However, feel free to ask us during your design advice service if you would like our opinion on any potential capitalisation issues in relation to your project.
6. Honest Feedback
Years of experience has taught us that our clients value honest feedback. We will provide alternate solutions and assist you in developing your ideas if we don’t believe that a proposed change you are considering will be of benefit to you. You can rest assured that we will provide real direction to ensure that your project provides you with the lifestyle benefits you are looking for.
