Your Preparation · 03 of 08
You don’t need to have your home worked out — that’s what we’re here to help with. Tell us what you’re imagining so far, what you think you’ll need and anything you’re still unsure about.
It’s completely okay not to know yet.
Choose what feels right today. Anything you’re unsure about can become something we explore together.
Here are some of the key things we’ve picked up so far. We’ll keep these in mind as we explore what your home could become.
Nanna stays for extended periods during the year.
Mark regularly works from home.
Toby likes somewhere quiet to study.
Bailey is a large dog who loves being outside.
You love the way your kitchen flows to outdoor living.
You don’t want another dark, closed-off kitchen.
When you picture your new home, what are you imagining?
What sort of home are you hoping it will feel like?
Tell us anything else you’re imagining…
A few early thoughts to help us understand what you’re considering.
Anything we should understand about these spaces?
These are things you’re thinking about, not agreed requirements.
Anything you’d like us to understand about these spaces?
Are there any spaces you particularly want connected — or separated?
For example: kitchen overlooking outdoor living · kids’ bedrooms away from the main bedroom · study near the entry · guest area with more privacy.
Is there anything you’re imagining about your outdoor spaces?
Is there anything your home needs to accommodate that we should know about?
For example: working from home, accessibility, ageing in place, large furniture, musical instruments, collections, sporting equipment, pets, trailers/caravans or anything else that’s important to you.
This helps us understand what matters most if compromises ever need to be made — particularly around design, property or budget.
This helps Andrew identify the most useful things to explore together at your Consultation.
Already put some ideas on paper? If you’ve drawn your own rough sketch of how you imagine your home might work, you’re welcome to share it with us. It doesn’t need to be neat or detailed — sometimes the roughest sketches tell us the most about what’s important to you.
Please only upload sketches you’ve created yourself.
We don’t accept floorplans or designs belonging to other builders or designers.
Don’t have a sketch? That’s completely fine. You don’t need one.
Your Consultation
Ideally have your Preparation ready by Sunday 18 October.
This gives Andrew time to review what you’ve shared and prepare properly for your Consultation.
Preparing together
At this stage we’re focused on understanding what your home needs to achieve — not the size or a specific design. This helps us create a home that’s right for you, rather than a pre-set plan.
You don’t need to complete everything in one sitting. Come back as thoughts occur to you — sometimes the most useful insights come from simply noticing what works, what doesn’t and what matters in everyday life.
