Design That Isn't Locked to One Builder<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Choose a design and construct company, and you’ve chosen your builder before you’ve even started your design. Choose a traditional design practice, and you’re often handed a finished set of plans with little say along the way. CU Design sits between the two, without the drawbacks of either. We design and document everything in-house, involve you at every stage, and hand you plans that are ready to build with whichever builder you trust.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

A Design Process Built Around You, Not Our Portfolio<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

Nothing here is generic. Every project starts with your brief and your block, not a look we're trying to sell you.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\"\"<\/figure>

No signature style<\/h3>

Some design studios have a look, and every client gets a version of it. Our team is intentionally diverse, so the result is shaped entirely around your brief, not our aesthetic.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\"\"<\/figure>

You're in the room for every decision<\/h3>

Face-to-face design meetings run right through your project, not just at the start and the reveal. You'll always know what's being decided, and why.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t
\"\"<\/figure>

Fixed price, agreed upfront<\/h3>

Your design fee is fixed before work begins, meaning no surprises down the track and real savings against architects and traditional design firms.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Built for the blocks other designers avoid<\/h3>

Sloping sites, council overlays, tricky access: this is what we do every day, not the exception that scares off a quote.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

See it before it's built<\/h3>

Our in-house VR design space lets you walk through your home in detail months before construction starts. Pair that with one of Brisbane's largest interior finishes showrooms, and you'll know exactly what you're building.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

No problem at all. We work alongside a wide network of trusted builders across Brisbane, and we’ll help match you with one suited to your project, your budget and your block. You’re never left to figure that part out alone. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

It comes down to qualifications and scope. Building designers hold a diploma-level qualification and QBCC licensing to design most residential homes and renovations, and for the vast majority of Brisbane projects, that’s exactly what you need, often at a lower cost than going the architect route.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t

A Concept Design is the master plan and is often the step that takes the longest to complete. All options are considered to ensure the house has everything you want and is designed to work the way you need it to.<\/span><\/p>

A Working Drawing is a more detailed, accurate drawing that includes all of the measurements and specifications needed to construct the building. We also offer a 3D virtual walkthrough of your future home, where changes can be made on the spot.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t
