Substantial alterations and additions to an existing 2 storey residence, to create a spacious 3 level family residence on a compact 368 m2 site. Builder: Reliant Constructions. Interiors & Joinery Design: Sally Small, home owner.

Design In Collaboration

This project was developed in strong collaboration with the homes’ stylish owner, who engaged us to design a split-level home extension that could push the limits in terms of permissible built form controls and capitalise on every inch of available floor space. The alterations and additions have been designed to be both sympathetic to the owners’ strong interior aesthetic and the compact nature of the site, which was constrained by a 7.5 metre street frontage.

Look can work on the spatial planning and building approvals stages, in addition to providing advice on how to ensure desired interior inclusions are planned well ahead and incorporated into your building cost. Therefore even if you have strong ideas on your homes’ interior aesthetic, Look can work in collaboration with you to ensure your design incorporates all of your best ideas and is as rewarding and exciting as you had planned it to be.

Look’s Design Principal, Natalie Andersen, holds a Bachelor of Interior Architecture in addition to a Master of Architecture. Under her direction, Look can provide you with any necessary guidance and design services, to cost effectively materialise all of your desired inclusions. If either you or your trade professional must guess how important interior aspects of your renovation are to be constructed, then needless frustration, time delays and cost overruns will be result, rather than the rewarding and exciting experience you had hoped for.

Look’s carefully considered design drawings and documentation will ensure you get the look you want, rather than your builder or trade professional’s interpretation. So if you are inspired to make changes to your home and would like a Design Fee Proposal for your project, simply call 0438 699 949 or email Natalie at natalie@lookdesigngroup.com.au to discuss your needs.
