Our approach

How a project runs

Every project is different, but the order is usually the same.

01

Listen

We meet at your home or site and ask how you live, what you need and what you can spend.

02

Sketch

Two or three rough ideas, on paper, so it is easy to change direction.

03

Draw and submit

Detailed drawings for council approval and for builders to price.

04

Build

We visit the site every week and answer the builder's questions the same day.

Drawings spread across a wooden table
Questions

Before you call

The things clients usually ask first.

How long does approval take?

It depends on the council and the project. We give you an estimate after the first meeting.

Do you work outside Cape Town?

Occasionally, when we can visit the site often enough to do it properly.

How do you charge?

Usually a percentage of the building cost, agreed in writing before we start drawing.
