consent
simplifying the journey
At The House Concept, our role is to simplify the design and consent process for you. Once we have translated your ideas into structurally sound plans, we can then secure planning permission and building consents.
We are here to work with you and for you during what can be a daunting consent process for homeowners.
overseeing the whole picture
Our architectural design team can seamlessly take your project through the next phase. Once you have approved the final concept plans and pricing estimates, we will prepare all the working drawings, specifications, and identify any engineering or necessary specialist input related to your design.
Plans are then submitted to council, and we act as their point of contact, responding to any requests for additional information and getting consent approval on your behalf.
communication and teamwork
Good architecture is about good design, and good architects and architectural designers are about flexible thinking, good communication and good project management.
Communication is a vital part of the design and construction process and an experienced team, like ours, is used to dealing with councils, building inspectors, engineers and tradespeople.
Architects and architectural designers are problem solvers and finding answers to problems in creative ways is a key element to good project management.
getting the holistic view
To translate your hopes and dreams into a three-dimensional reality, we can manage the wider project for you. We can recommending building contractors, engaging and managing consultants that may be needed and source materials. We will also process any minor variations or amendments required by council, avoiding delays so your build can be finished on time and within budget.
creating your goals and your vision
The goal of good an architect or architectural designer is to be so good at interpreting a client’s brief they can design a home that totally exceeds clients’ expectations yet is still affordable. To be that we aim to listen, always answer you efficiently, to have your back, to work with what you want, and do everything possible to make sure your building project runs smoothly.
