Be an Architect For A Day: The FAST TRACK Concept Workshop

Planning on building your dream home this year?

Like to be actively involved in the design of your new home?

If so, why not be an Architect for a Day?

Our FAST TRACK Concept Workshop is a unique experience that:

  1. Empowers you to design your dream home with a little help from us,
  2. Saves you time by eliminating weeks of back-and-forth communication,
  3. Saves you thousands of dollars by obtaining building advice at design time

Save time and money: Be an Architect for a Day!

Question 1: How can I design my new home?

The FAST TRACK Concept Workshop is a unique architectural experience where our team of qualified, professional residential designers and builders translate your new home ideas onto paper – live.

Because the entire process occurs live you are able to:

  • Make design decisions,
  • Understand the implications,
  • Make adjustments

And all of this occurs in real time.

Question 2: How does this save me time?

Regular architectural design services achieve similar outcomes over several days or weeks due to back-and-forth communications occuring via:

  • Emails
  • PDFs
  • Phone calls
  • Meetings

The FAST TRACK Concept Workshop gathers yourself, a residential designer and a building consultant in the same room at the same time addressing issues face to face.

This real-time collaboration eliminates extraneous back-and-forth communications.

Question 3: How does this save me money?

Regular services rarely involve a qualified builder during the initial Concept Design Stage.

Typically, a designer designs the plans, gets them approved by the relevant authorities and then hands over those approved plans to a builder.

At this point, a builder is usually able to identify several areas of cost savings – however by this time it is too late to change the plans.

By having a building consultant involved at design time, “build-ability” advice can be incorporated right from the start of the project – avoiding nasty (cost) surprises later down the track.

This service alone means the FAST TRACK Concept Workshop pays for itself many times over.
