Design your custom home
Initial consultation
We will discuss your land, your budget, and any other features important to you to create the perfect custom home. As a Passive home builder, we focus on creating energy-efficient, sustainable designs tailored to your lifestyle.
Considered recommendations
Once we understand your individual needs, we can arrange site investigations and obtain property information such as a soil report, feature survey, and council property and planning reports, you sign a preliminary service agreement and pay an initial fee.
Develop concept plans
You and your sales consultant will then meet with our in-house drafting team to develop concept plans for your new home. If you have chosen one of our pre-designed homes, you can work with the team to make any modifications to suit your needs.
Work with our interior design consultant
After your concept plans have been finalised, you will work with our qualified in-house Interior Design Consultant to select the styling of your home, both inside and out.
Our designer has experience across all major style areas from contemporary to classic and will work with you to develop a colour scheme that complements your home design and reflects your personal style.
Discuss sustainable options
As an experienced Passive home builder, we go beyond aesthetics to create homes that are as sustainable as they are beautiful. This is your opportunity to discuss home and appliance efficiency and select sustainable options.
Finalising your specifications in colours
Finalising your specifications, from the colour of your roof to the cladding, windows and doors, to the fixtures and fittings, the joinery and flooring and everything in between.
Inline with your budget
We’ll work with you to ensure these specifications are in line with your budget so you are empowered when making every decision.
Finalise your custom home design
Final home design and plans
Once you have chosen your colours and materials, we will finalise your customised home design and plans with all of these details, including your internal elevations and electrical plan.
Submit for approval
We will submit these to your land developer for approval (if required) and obtain your Energy report.
Soil report and feature survey
If your land is already titled and accessible, we will have already obtained your soil report and feature survey so can also submit your plans for the Engineering design. If we are still waiting for land access, the Engineering design will be obtained after we receive the soil and survey reports.
Final pricing
After we have received your Engineering design, we will be able to provide you with a fixed price quote for your home, including your design, inclusions, upgrades and site costs. We will prepare your Building Contract and you will be ready to go!
Build period
Upon signing your Building Contract we will issue you with the deposit claim, apply for your Building Permit and begin to order building materials. We will commence building as soon as the Building Contract has been signed, deposit has been paid, your finance approval has been obtained, land settlement has been finalised and the Building Permit has been obtained.
