Our Design and Documentation Process
At Skizze Building Design, we make engaging a building designer simple and transparent. Whether you’re planning a new home, renovation, unit development, or granny flat, we guide you through every step — from initial enquiry to completed design.
Initial Consultation
We start by listening. You tell us about your site, ideas, and goals. This can be in-person, via phone, or online. We discuss feasibility, your budget, and your vision for the project.
Site Assessment & Research
We visit the site (if possible) and gather all relevant information, including:
-
Site measurements and topography
-
Orientation and slope
-
Local planning and zoning requirements
-
Environmental factors such as climate, bushfire zones, and views
This ensures your design responds to both the site and regulatory requirements.
Concept Design
Based on your brief and site analysis, we develop a concept design:
-
Preliminary floor plans and layouts
-
Discussion of materials, finishes, and style
We collaborate with you to refine the concept until it perfectly matches your vision.
Design Development
Once the concept is approved, we create detailed plans including:
-
Floor plans, elevations, and sections
-
Site plans showing context, access, and landscaping
-
Material and finish schedules
The design is fully resolved and ready for approvals.
Documentation & Approvals
We prepare all documentation needed for council or private certifier approval, including:
-
Working drawings
-
Specifications
-
Compliance with planning and building regulations
We liaise with authorities to ensure a smooth approval process.
Construction Support
While our focus is design, we continue supporting you during construction:
-
Answering builder queries
-
Reviewing design details
-
Providing clarification drawings when needed
Our goal is to ensure your design intent is fully realized.
