Architect Designed Homes

The right builder for your architect designed home

Your architect imagined it. The builder you choose decides whether it arrives as drawn. We build architect designed homes across Sydney, faithfully, with the pool and gardens delivered as one.

Your design, protected

Your architect designed it. We build it.

When you have spent months with an architect getting the design right, the wrong builder can quietly undo it: substituting materials, value managing details away, treating the drawings as a suggestion. We do the opposite. Your documentation is the contract, and the design you paid for is the home you get.

Your architect stays in control of their design throughout: site questions go back through them, and any change is proposed, priced and approved before it happens, never discovered after. Builders and architects do their best work when each respects the other’s craft, and your home is the beneficiary.

The process

From plans to pricing

  • Have finished plans?

    Send them through and you’ll receive a detailed, itemised quote with inclusions spelt out. We price what is documented and flag the gaps other builders price around, so the number you sign is the number you build to.

  • Part way through design?

    We’re happy to join while your architect is still drawing. Buildability and budget feedback lands while changes are still cheap on paper, and your architect keeps the pen the whole time.

  • Want the whole vision priced?

    Most builders quote the house and leave the pool and landscape as someone else’s problem, which is where budgets blow out later. We price and deliver the complete picture under one contract, so the finished block matches the render.

Proof

Built, not just promised

Our Kellyville project is a 65 square architect designed home delivered with its pool and landscape as one contract, through COVID, on time and on budget. It was a finalist in the 2023 HIA NSW Awards for both Custom Built Home and New Kitchen.

One builder responsible for the home, the pool and the site meant the owners’ architect saw the design arrive finished as drawn: levels, transitions and outdoor spaces resolved together rather than value managed apart.

Peace of mind

The boring things, done properly

  • Licensed and insured

    NSW licensed builder with Home Building Compensation Fund cover on every eligible residential project, certificate issued before any deposit. Certificates of currency for all insurances are available on request with our tender.

  • Director on your project

    We deliberately limit how many projects we run at once, and our director manages each one from tender to handover. The person who priced your documentation is the person running the site, which keeps answers fast and accountability undiluted.

  • Whole site, one contractor

    Home, pool, landscaping and external works under one head contract. For your documentation that means one point of responsibility for every level, junction and finish on the block, from the front boundary to the back fence.

Got plans? Let’s talk.

Send your drawings, or start with a conversation about the home still on the drawing board. Either way you’ll deal directly with our director. Architects looking for a builder to tender or recommend: the same door is open.
