Why engage the services of an Architect?

There are many benefits associated with engaging an Architect which are quite often overlooked.

  • the value added to a property that incorporates great design and sensible, well considered planning is quite significant.
  • Each design is considered with utmost understanding of the site and the neighbourhood vernacular.
  • Architects do not replicate the same formula across multiple sites as is common with alternate building practitioners.
  • An understanding of ‘Space’, ‘Light’, ‘Sustainability’ and ‘Briefs’ are imperative to all good design offices.
  • the marketing benefits of advertising an ‘Architect Designed’ residence/development is widely recognised amongst real estate agents to benefit owners.

Is your company a member of any professional organisations ?

Yes. We are affiliated with the following professional bodies:

  • Royal Australian Institute of Architects (RAIA – A+Members)
  • Building Designers Association of Victoria (BDAV – Corporate Members)

The RAIA & BDAV both require that current members undertake Company Professional Development (CPD) courses throughout each and every year to accrue points directly linked to the company, thus ensuring that all employees are continually up to date and suitably qualified to deal with changes to regulations across the building industry.
