Building Design & Drafting

New Builds

We provide building design services for new residential projects using a performance-driven approach. Our designs integrate engineering fundamentals, construction science, and principles of Building Biology to create scientifically informed, low-tox built environments that support long-term human health.

More about Low Tox Building Science

Existing & Extensions

 We apply the same integrated thinking—balancing engineering considerations, construction science, and building biology principals with the realities of the existing structure. This approach supports practical, compliant upgrades that improve performance, functionality, and occupant health, while minimising unforeseen issues during construction and approval. 

Retrospective

Retrospective design & drafting of existing 'as constructed' or 'unapproved' structures.

  • Homes & Granny Flats,
  • Decks & Verandas,
  • Sheds & Carports,
  • Shipping Containers & Other Structures...

More about our retrospective services

Relocator

 Relocating an existing house requires clear, accurate documentation to support approvals, site planning, and compliance with current regulations. We provide measured and as-constructed drafting services for houses proposed to be relocated, documenting existing layouts, structure, and key building elements 

More about house relocator drafting

General Drafting

 We offer general drafting tailored to your needs — from concrete, landscaping, and pool plans for your landscaper, to minor renovations like timber framing upgrades... before you finally remove that wall you promised your wife two years ago...

Clear, practical, and ready to build from.

Absolutely, we can prepare for construction plans, size relevant timber framing and tiedown necessary, ready for you to send out to builders for quotation.


Being dependent on the project, but we can typically have an initial consultation completed that week, and first draft plans could be prepared in days, not weeks. After some back and forth, a 'For Approval' set of plans could be released again in days, not weeks - reach out to discuss your size project for time estimates. 


Sure do! Owner, Matt Bauer, has a structural & civil engineering background nearing 2 decades. Learn more about Matts history on our About Us page.
