Architectural Design
& Drafting Auckland
Good residential design needs to be understood, coordinated and buildable. We turn your ideas, sketches or existing plans into an architectural direction that can be refined in 3D and developed toward costing and consent.

Before detailed documentation
See the whole design—not a collection of disconnected drawings
Our designers work in Autodesk Revit, developing plans, elevations, sections and three-dimensional views from the same coordinated model. That gives you a clearer understanding of space, scale and form while decisions are still easy to change.
We can begin with an early brief or review concepts prepared elsewhere. The aim is a thoughtful residential design with enough technical discipline to progress confidently into costing and consent documentation.
A defined professional scope
What this service can include
The written proposal confirms the stages and deliverables appropriate to your property, project and current starting point.
Existing-home documentation
Measure and model the building where reliable existing drawings are unavailable.
Concept options
Test layout, circulation, light, form and connection to the site before selecting a direction.
Revit 3D development
Visualise the project and coordinate plans, elevations and sections from one model.
Design refinement
Develop the selected concept in response to feedback, budget and specialist input.
Buildability review
Consider practical construction logic before technical documentation is advanced.
Working drawings

Frequently asked
Questions about this service
01What is the difference between concept plans and consent drawings?+
Concept plans explore layout, form and the main design decisions. Consent drawings develop the selected design into coordinated technical information that demonstrates how the proposed work will meet applicable requirements.
02Will I be able to see the design in 3D?+
Yes. The project is developed in Autodesk Revit so plans, elevations, sections and three-dimensional views can be reviewed as the design progresses.
03Can the design change after the first concept?+
Yes. Refinement is an expected part of design. Changes are generally easier to assess during concept development than after engineering and detailed documentation are advanced.
04Can you work from my existing sketches or plans?+
Yes. We review their accuracy and development status first, then confirm what can be retained and what additional information is needed.
