Licensed Building Designers in Hobart and Southern Tasmania

 

At Skizze Design Studio, we provide residential building design services across Hobart and southern Tasmania.

We design new homes, alterations and additions, unit developments, and granny flats, responding to site, climate, and the way people live.


Experience + Licence


Experienced and Licensed in Tasmania

With over 40 years of experience (30 of those in Hobart), we bring practical knowledge and a clear design approach to residential projects.

We are licensed to work in Tasmania, with an understanding of local planning requirements, building regulations, and construction conditions.


Climate Design


Designing for Climate

Southern Tasmania has a cooler climate that requires careful design for comfort and performance.

We design homes to:

  • capture sunlight for warmth

  • provide insulation and thermal efficiency

  • protect from wind and weather

  • maximise natural light

These principles improve comfort and reduce energy use.

Bushfire Requirements


Bushfire Considerations

Many sites are affected by bush fire planning requirements, including Bush fire Attack Level ratings.

We design homes to meet these requirements through:

  • compliant materials and construction methods

  • careful detailing of windows, roofs, and openings

  • consideration of site layout and surrounding vegetation


Views & Landscape


Views and Landscape

Homes in Hobart are often located on sloping sites with views across water, bushland, or valleys.

We design to:

  • capture key views

  • work with steep sites

  • balance privacy and outlook

  • connect indoor and outdoor spaces


What We Design


Our Work in Hobart and surrounding areas

  • new homes

  • unit developments
