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.

Residential Renovation
Modal provided excellent early engagement with us on a Wellington house renovation project. They communicated quickly and were very responsive, visiting and patiently talking us through the options and steps.

Commercial Fitout
Modal helped us with a redesign of our office space at Aro, it was an absolute pleasure to work with Modal through this process. They saw our vision right away, to help us enrich our existing space without taking away all the unique characteristics. They were meticulous in the design process and guided us through each step, from proof of concept to adding the finishing touches - inevitably being featured on WellingtonNZs coolest offices blog. I would highly recommend Modal for any project that requires a great deal of creativity, attention to detail, and initiative.
