What if tomorrow you lived in a house permanently exposed to the sun? Or better yet, who would give you a different view of the surrounding landscape every day? This dream vision has been a reality for some owners for a long time. Your best friend and confidant on this journey will be your architect. Architects turn dreams into reality and support you throughout the process.
Although other specialists can provide Home design services in Canberra, architects are rigorously trained in the profession. Just like doctors, they must complete at least seven years of study and practical experience to pass the exams which, when passed, officially recognize their qualification as an architect. And it doesn’t stop there; To remain accredited, they must demonstrate that they are deserving professionals by taking regular professional development courses and demonstrating a good knowledge of the industry.
Choosing your architect:
To obtain registration with the Architects Accreditation Council of Australia, a person must hold a recognized architectural degree or demonstrate equivalent qualifications, undertake a period of experiential training, and pass a practical exam.
Architects’ websites
Watch as you browse architects’ websites – the logo indicates firms that are known to meet the highest standards in the industry. They also have access to the latest industry information and advice, which means you also have access to the best design and build solutions to meet your brief.
Good design with personalized adaptation
Visit the site along with your expert architect and do a ‘SWOT’ analysis (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats). This will allow you to start thinking about the look of your design and the specific attributes of the site. Every new client and every new site provides an opportunity for an architect to deliver unique results. Beware of companies that take a cookie-cutter approach to design. Experienced architects use the parameters and opportunities that each new site presents with each client’s vision, to design homes. Please consider the below points when you visit your block.

- Contour
- Views
