We recommend finishes, furniture, colours and lighting to transform your residence into a striking family haven for everyone to enjoy and your visitors to wow.
Experienced building designers
With our sound experience in the fields of building design, space planning and interior design, we will help you achieve your aspirations. But we will also guide you through a whole range of processes – from the initial design to seeing the project through planning and construction to completion.
First step towards your dream home
The point we start from is understanding your needs and the ways in which you want to use the new space. That’s why we will be asking you a lot of questions to fully understand what you are aiming to achieve. Before we put pencil to paper, we wish to find out everything there is to know about your personal design preferences, how you and your family want to live in your new home and the budget you put aside. That information will be feeding into the development of your project brief.
Conceptual house plans
We then undertake a concept study where we look at a number of design options (both spatial and material) that meet the requirements. This study would include drawings and sketches, as well as looking at precedent renovation projects to help give a clear idea of the scope of work.
When renovating a building we ensure maintaining a sense of continuity and connection to the existing structure. We only aim to create buildings and interiors that are both stylish and above all functional.
Presenting the concept drawings will be done through discussion and illustration, describing the layout and the flow of your new home. Following this, we might be tweaking the house design until you are entirely happy with the concept design.
3D building plans available
The team of Martina Hayes uses one of the best architectural computer programs on the market. You can expect 2D and 3D plans that show the proposed space from every angle early in the process. The computer modeling and rendering will help you visualise your completed project. Enjoying the ability to see and understand the full extent and impact of the proposed project our clients have confidence in our design and planning solutions. This enables you to make informed decisions on one of your largest assests with peace of mind.
Network of building professionals
We collaborate with an expert network of experienced builders, surveyors and structural engineers who will be engaged in your home project. We request a quote from our builders for the implementation of your building design or, alternatively, work with a builder you wish to bring into the construction project. Our main objective is that you feel comfortable working with the selected professionals on your home transformation journey.
Building permit for design realisation
When your house alterations require a building permit, we will arrange for a site survey to be conducted of your property. Martina Hayes’ team creates the plans and drawings required for approval and submits them to your local Council, or alternatively, to a private certifier. The application for a development approval may include:
- Site plan
- Drawings and plans
- Elevations
- Shadow plans
- Basixs
Interiors round off your house design
While your house plans are assessed by Council or a private certifier, our skilled interior designers will select beautiful finishes and recommend complementing furniture and lighting to round off your individual design.
Working with Martina Hayes, we can also offer a bathroom and kitchen design service to ensure that every area of your project is thought of from start to finish.
Once building approval is granted and the construction work commences, we escort you through this final stage of your exciting house transformation journey.
We design for you
We at Martina Hayes have a clear ambition when undertaking work for our clients; to add value and exceed expectations.
We bring our passion, creativity and innovation to every project we undertake and seek to deliver the optimum outcomes, even where we face complex challenges or constraints such as difficult floor plans and special contexts.
If you consider to build a new home or renovate an existing house we would love to hear from you.
