Preliminary Design

During the preliminary design phase, our architectural designers will thoroughly evaluate the local regulations and guidelines for your area. This includes a review of district plan rules, building codes, and any other relevant requirements that may impact your new construction project. Our team will also assess potential hazards and design constraints to ensure that the project is feasible and meets local standards.

In order to ensure that your new construction project is approved, we will determine if a resource consent is needed and work with a planner if necessary. Our designers will use their expertise to create a preliminary design for your home that takes into account the overall scale and aesthetic. This design will serve as a framework for the next stages of your project, including the concept design and resource consent stages.

We really enjoyed working with Sam and Ollie over the past year. They really listened to our requirements but also provided professional input where it mattered. Highly recommend Modal - they work with you to achieve the design and end-product you want!

We had a great experience working with Sam and Lindsay on the designs for our renovation. Their knowledge and expertise, and ability to work with us and our builder led to a great outcome. Excellent communication and lots of support to navigate the design process and dealing with our consent application. We would recommend the Modal team to anyone looking for excellent design services.
