How to choose the right building designer for your custom home

Choosing the right building designer is important for the success of your project. Trust us, not all architects are equal. You need to be sure that you’re choosing wisely so it’s completely natural to have some concerns, such as:

An enjoyable experience

Will I have to do everything myself, from design to planning to building permit? Will my architect and builder make the experience enjoyable?

Your design, not someone else’s

Will my design be just a modified ‘cookie cutter’ version of someone else’s dream home with a few tweaks and alterations? Will there be wasted and unusable spaces?

A designer who listens

Will the building designer take the time to understand my vision? Will the design suit my land?

Costing and budgeting

Will the pricing be honest and fair? Are there any hidden fees or charges that could increase the cost of the job? Can they design to my budget?

Are you unsure how to choose the right architect?

Do you need advice to address these and other concerns or questions you might have?

Most people building a home are in a similar situation. That’s why we provide a free consultation with our Design and Build Specialist together with our architect to answer your questions, share tips to avoid costly mistakes and wasted time and to start the journey to getting the custom home that you’ve always wanted.

Building design, just the way you want it

Pepper Constructions, alongside our award-winning building designers, provides a complete Design and Build service.

Since 2009 builders Henri Grawe and Matt Whiting, alongside the Pepper Constructions team, have helped more than 150 families build their dream custom home or extension. We pride ourselves on providing custom designs, high quality homes and a fantastic building experience.

At Pepper Constructions ‘we make building easy!’

That’s a big claim. So how we do it?

Your exact vision

 

You’ve been patiently planning, collecting ideas and dreaming of the home you’ve always wanted. Your exact vision. A perfectly flowing floorplan, shared spaces for the family and rooms that are private, features that add comfort and convenience, finishes that show style and luxury to reflect your personality and everything built properly, to last a lifetime.

In collaboration with our architect, we will integrate your ideas, provide expert advice and create a custom home just the way you want it.

Your Unique Land

The very best house design is only as good as the way it matches your block of land.

That’s why we carry out a comprehensive site assessment and optimise your design to maximise natural light, breezes, views and privacy.

This includes size and placement of windows and doors, width of eves and outdoor entertaining areas, and even the choice of building materials.

Honest and fair pricing

Our honest and fair pricing allows you to plan with certainty, avoid surprises and know exactly what you’re getting and what it costs.

Comparing building prices and quotes is difficult. It’s easy to be misled by “cookie cutter” catalogue prices of homes that don’t suit you or seduced by low m2 prices that ignore site conditions and don't include basics like heating or even flooring.

The solution to getting an honest and fair price is to choose a custom builder at the very beginning. That way you can have the design you want, created with your budget in mind, enjoy a fantastic building experience and be sure that it includes everything for one fixed price.

Your Dream Outcome

Too many architects create a plan that they like rather than a design that you want. And because they are so focused on their design, they underestimate the logistics of construction (especially costs).

Too often, people engage an architect to design a home only to find out – too late – that it will 30% to 50% more to build than your budget. We’ve heard this again and again.

Our complete, all-in-one design service starts by understanding what you want, not what we think you should have. Then we provide options on how you can get this outcome without giving up things you’ve always wanted or needlessly overspending.
