great architecture isn't just about talent and experience, but collaborations and relationships
OVERVIEW OF OUR 6-STAGE PROCESS
(↓)
(01)
sketch design
We kick off with a site visit and creative consultation to define your vision, style, and functional needs. We'll also uncover new opportunities and potential limitations. Based on this, we craft a series of hand-drawn design sketches to provide an initial visual concept that reflects your brief. Through collaboration and refinement, we shape the concept to align with your goals, timeline, and budget.
(02)
Design Development
Here we take the initial sketches and fill in all the glorious details, including building material selections, inside-to-outside interfaces, floor plans, layouts, indicative joinery design and spatial flow. Our team will craft detailed digital 2Ddrawings and a 3Dmodel that bring the look, feel and layout of your home to life.
(03)
Development Application
Not all projects will require a development application with Council. If yours does, we will coordinate the entire process, including sourcing input from Town Planners, gathering documentation and information from consultants, preparing and submitting the application, and managing information requests and follow-ups with Council.
(04)
Interior Design
Here we craft an interior design concept that creates flow, contrast and balance with the architectural design and overall vision of your home. Our interior design team will develop a 3D model of your home and include all the details from joinery, cabinetry and storage to hard finishes, fixtures and fittings.
(05)
building approval plans + Documentation
All architectural projects require Building Approval from a private certifier before construction can begin. Our team will advise, guide, coordinate and manage all your building approval plans and applications, including coordinating consultants, creating documentation packages, managing information requests and following up on the progress of requisite approvals.
(06)
construction plans + Documentation
With all the design details finalised and building approvals squared away, we turn our attention to creating construction plans, drawings and documents that will guide your builders and tradespeople in bringing the intended designs to life. We’ll collaborate and coordinate with the entire team to ensure every element is fully resolved and communicated in detail.
"From the initial meeting I was impressed by the genuine enthusiasm and willingness to engage with the ideas in my brief. Johnny Hyde and the OH Architecture team engendered confidence. They cared about the project; throughout the design process they listened and interacted in a positive and professional, but relaxed, way. As they explored design ideas, they welcomed my contributions and encouraged feedback. Consequently, I had no doubt that OH Architecture would deliver a design to meet my dreams and also my budget. And in fact, the award-winning outcome eminently attests to their skill and achievement on both counts!"
