about Us

Custom Building Designs

In the process of delivering your project our aim is to identify your goals, help you achieve them and overcome any perceived obstacles. We provide solutions in the form of design ideas, sketches, 3D images and other printed forms using eco-design solutions where practical. Catering to your individual preferences and requirements based on your client brief and any supporting documentation you provide, we will work together for your desired outcome using our expertise and knowledge of the industry and your dream. Some considerations during the design process are to maximise any views, breezes, access requirements, animals, or any other specific requirements for your project. The team is lead by Gina, our Principal Building Designer.
Excellent service
Your home is my priority. That is exactly why I take the time to sit down with you and go through your wants and needs in a home, your budget for a home and a site visit to envision what you are wanting to build. I completed my Bachelor of building Design through Central Queensland University (CQU), graduating with Distinction in 2012. During this time I worked for, and with, another well respected local Building Designer - whilst raising three children independently. Now with over 20 years of experience in the industry, I have an enthusiasm for achieiving the best possible outcome for each Site specific design and meeting the occupants needs for each project. Incorportaing passive design principles and emphasizing the use of natural light and airflow creates energy-efficient homes. As a result, the home's energy consumption is lowered, and temperature stability is enhanced. I have been working mainly Gympie and surrounding areas, as well as other places over Queensland, servicing private clients and local builders.

Building Designer v Architect

While Architects need to be registered with the Architects Accreditation Council of Australia (AACA), no such accreditation body is available for Building Designers. However Building Designers in Queensland must be licensed through the Queensland Building and Construction Commission (QBCC) and have the appropriate level of liability insurance. There are other bodies which Building Designers could choose to join such as Building Designers Association of Australia (BDAA) or Building Designers Qld (BDQ). Architects and Building Designers provide comparable design and documentation for Residential Construction. They don't use an existing set of plans such as with a volume builder, but work with you to create a unique design. Or if you have found a floorplan that you like but that needs work to make it one you love, work with you to make it your own. Contact us for more information. For Commercial Construction, not all Building Designers can complete Commercial projects while all Architects are qualified. Note: It is essential to ensure that the building designer you choose is licensed by the Queensland Building and Construction Commission (QBCC) for the type of project you have planned. Working with an unlicensed designer could lead to issues with building approval and structural integrity.
