Individually created

The collections offer pre-designed homes that are individually created and assessed for practical programming, unique aesthetics and sustainable design.

Ready for modifications

Our designs are ready for modifications to suit your individual site and submit to our recommended planners for compliance with your local LGA.

Fast turnaround

Your collection home will be ready for builder quotes within four weeks of all relevant documentation being submitted to the Epic Team.

Work with the architect and interior designer

Work with the architect and interior designer for selected fixtures and finishes to make sure your interior and exterior are exactly how you would like your new home aesthetic.

Drawings

The Collection piece you choose comes with pre planned drawings that include:

1. Site plan based on northern aspect

2. Floor plans

3. Elevations

4. Building sections

5. Construction details to describe architectural features

6. Window and door schedules based on highest value thermal rating

7. Fixture and finish schedule template for all client choice integration

8. Thermal BASIX report based on specific indicators (pre-prepared for site and build specific amendments)

9. Collection of renderings for design reference

Efficient

All collection pieces are pre-designed for efficiency ready to be adjusted to the client’s land and preferred program. Your changes could be anything from preferences like additional rooms or spaces to adjustments for existing site conditions such as vehicle crossovers, orientations, or sloping sites

Amendments

Clients will work with our Collections Team to organise what information is required by the client and what adjustments the client may like to see in the design. Structural changes will incur hourly rates by the architect and drafting team, with a fee proposal being provided by the architect at the time of discussion of amendments.

Workshop

A two hour workshop with the architect is included in the price of the collection piece where the design and aesthetic choices can be reviewed and discussed for architect and interior design input. Further workshops are priced at $400 per two hour session.

Transparent pricing

Fee proposals are submitted for client approval based on the design changes required.

Compliance

Houses are designed and documented with the ability to do the following:

1.     Integration of the site information and local LGA information

• This will be implemented by the epic drafting team and can take as little as 1 week to complete if all required information is supplied.

2.     Assessment by a recommended planner for audit of regulatory requirements

• Epic architecture works with preferred planners. They will assist to audit proposed development for all approvals. They will also facilitate applications for council, including all communique with the local council or private certifier, for your project to begin construction.

• Please see added fees section for estimated cost

• It is highly recommended that all clients engage a private planner  

3.     Builder discussions for estimate of cost and availability

• Many clients will have builders in their area who they prefer to have a look through the project and begin project discussions. Epic Architecture has a network of builders who clients can reach out to, yet we do not guarantee availability

4.     Joinery consultant and estimating

• Depending on your builder and your decision to which contract you choose, you may be visiting with a joinery team to specify and price your carpentry.

• The Collections include a recommended joinery design that is ready for consultation with the supplier, but you may wish to change the layout to suit your needs. Your selected joiner will take your homes floor plan and work with you to select all details and price for build and installation
