Building Designer

Mark Davis – Building Designer

Looking to create a home that’s energy efficient, comfortable, and designed around the way you live?

Our building design service focuses on thoughtful, sustainable solutions that respond to your lifestyle, your site, and the local climate.

We specialise in passive solar house design, using natural principles—like orientation, shading, ventilation and thermal mass—to passively heat and cool your home, lowering energy use while increasing year-round comfort.

New builds, extensions, or renovations



Passive solar house design

Whether you’re planning a new build, extension, or renovation, we take care of the entire design process and guide you through every step—from early ideas to construction-ready documentation. We’re here to simplify the process, answer your questions, and provide support and clarity along the way.



Our process includes

1. Design Brief

Using our unique design brief questionnaire we learn about you, your wants and your needs, and how you want your home to function. This guides us throughout the project.

3. Concept Designs

We develop initial ideas and spatial layouts to explore how the home could look, function, and feel. This is where the vision begins to take shape.

5. Development Application (DA)

We prepare all necessary drawings and reports for Council approval and coordinate any additional consultants required at this stage

2. Site Analysis / Feasibility Study

We begin by assessing your site, its context, climate, opportunities and constraints. This helps us understand what’s possible and how to achieve the best outcomes.

4. Design Development

Once a concept is chosen, we refine the design in more detail—considering materials, energy efficiency strategies, and your feedback to ensure every element works together.

6. Construction Certificate (CC)

We finalise the technical documentation and collaborate with engineers, certifiers, and consultants to get your project ready for construction.

If you’ve been searching for building designers, we cover all of NSW, with a passion for intelligent, sustainable design. Our custom home design service is tailored to your lifestyle, block and budget—there are no off-the-shelf solutions here.

Throughout the process, we coordinate all relevant professionals—such as structural engineers, energy assessors, surveyors and certifiers—ensuring clear communication and consistency across all stages. You won’t need to chase people or manage the paperwork alone. We’re here to support you and hold your hand through the process, making it feel manageable, transparent, and even enjoyable.

Let’s work together to create a home that feels great to live in, performs brilliantly year-round, and treads lightly on the planet. With our expertise in energy efficient house design and passive solar house design, we’re here to help bring your vision to life.
