We focus primarily on residential design ranging from extensions to new homes – see our Case Study section for more. We also undertake dual occupancy and multi-unit development projects.
The cost to extend or build can vary greatly due to many reasons including (but not limited to) site conditions, site location, market forces, construction type and the complexity of the project.
As a very general rule of thumb we estimate a range of $2,000–$3,000/sqm for most extensions and $1,500–$2,500/sqm for most new homes. In addition to these per square metre building costs you will need to consider other items such as driveways, decks, paving, fencing, landscaping and even a swimming pool. Costs are indicative only and it is best to contact our office to discuss your project requirements.
There is 9.29sqm per square; therefore a 15-square house is 139.35sqm.

Who we use is specific to your brief and needs, and we’re flexible if you want to choose your own suppliers, too.
