Developed Design

I will,

• Refine and consolidate the design decisions implemented in the preliminary design. Early concepts and planning will be resolved into a developed design through three dimensional computer modeling. I will work with you to develop the materials and finishes and finalize the relationship of building to context and planning constraints.

• Request that a preliminary cost estimate be obtained from a quantity surveyor, in order to attribute a working value to the developing design. The estimate will based on preliminary design drawings and include the core building construction, indicative finishes and specified site works. It may include estimated amounts for certain items like kitchen appliances and lighting and joinery. It will generally exclude furnishings, drapes, curtains, pendant lighting and exterior landscaping.

In addition I may,

• Apply for a council Resource Consent on your behalf, or brief and liaise with your specialist planning consultants.

• Provide graphic renderings of the building or compile a report booklet that can be used for obtaining finance, advertising purposes or securing tenants.

Through out the developing design, I will continue to evaluate our work against your requirements and instructions. It is important any changes you would like to make are finalized in the developed design. Changes requested in the documentation and construction process, are likely to require re-evaluation of decisions previously agreed and additional work to effect.
