Design Proposal Agreement
Turning Ideas Into Professional Concept Plans
Once we've aligned on your vision, goals, budget, and project requirements, the next step is entering into a Design Proposal Agreement.
This stage allows us to begin developing professional concept plans tailored specifically to your home, lifestyle, and budget. It provides the foundation for informed decision-making.
What Is a Design Proposal Agreement?
A Design Proposal Agreement is a fixed-fee service that allows our team to prepare preliminary concept designs and project information based on your requirements.
The purpose of this stage is to:
Explore design possibilities
Confirm project feasibility
Establish realistic project budgets
Identify potential construction challenges
Develop a clear project brief
Create a concept suitable for further development
This stage helps ensure that future design and construction decisions are based on practical and realistic information.
What’s Included?
Our Concept Design Package typically includes:
Concept Design Drawings
Preliminary floor plans developed around your project brief, lifestyle requirements, and site conditions
3D Visualisations
Simple 3D perspectives to help you better understand the proposed design and overall look of the project.
Preliminary Construction Cost Estimate
A realistic budget assessment based on the proposed concept design and current construction costs.
Scope of Works
A preliminary scope outlining the proposed works and key project inclusions.
