Master Planning

A master plan is a document that describes the long-term vision for the development of a project. Master planning is a service that we provide, usually at the start of a project, to provide a coherent planning framework for the proposed project.

 

 We specialise in designing flexible layouts to accommodate the site features, topography, sun angles, prevailing winds, accessibility and future needs. We will initiate discussion with local planning authority to confirm project suitability

Sketch Design

Preliminary sketches are produced to facilitate discussions about the building layout, spatial arrangements, functions and ideas around the core ideals of the proposal and initial response to the brief. We will also discuss your budget and assist to choose your build option if you have not done so. This is the engaging process as you decide whether to go for one of our architectural designs, adapt an existing design to suit your needs or choose to go for a custom design exclusive for you. You will receive a 3D render of your design to help visualize what your future building will look like.

Design Development

During the design development stage, the sketch design is further developed, resolving general elemental layouts, and considering specific materials to develop the design intent and required functions. The developed design will become more accurate and the ideas are tested and implemented into the design.

To make it easy, we handle this whole process for you by coordinating with consultants on scope of work and reports.
