Combined Experience: We can architecturally design your
homes in any style. We have considerable experience with traditional building
styles, most notably Colonial, Victorian, Georgian & Edwardian styles.
Much of our past work developed toward a more modern interpretation of these
styles, with traditional shapes married with contemporary layout
requirements. We can assist you with all aspects of your new home, from
site selection and site layout to décor and landscaping. Indoor-outdoor flow,
family lifestyle, you name it. We have designed multi-unit apartment blocks,
and several townhouse developments. This work has included all aspects from
initial township layout through selection of materials and interior
décor. We have compiled architectural
guidelines for developments and have helped draft covenants to protect
clients developments. We have gained experience with restoration techniques and
research. Some of our staff have worked on the restoration and / or
renovation of residential buildings from the 17th to 19th centuries and early
20th century homes. Some staff have experience with Hospitality Design
requirements through their experience on the design teams for several 5-star
and 5-star + establishments. Whether your project is a 45 room boutique
hotel, or a 2 suite home-stay – we can assist you with all aspects from
concept to completion. Some staff have been on the design team for several wine
production cellars with all aspects of winemaking from destalking through
barrel and bottle maturation and even effluent control and disposal taken
into account. We have considerable experience with lighting layouts,
with technical knowledge of lighting types and advantages of different types.
We have carried out purpose made light fitting design in low voltage dicroic, fibre-optic and LED technology. We can assist
you should you have special requirements for sound distribution in your home.
You may require a home-theatre with surround sound, or even Hi-Fi quality sound transmission throughout your new home.
Whole house control systems can coordinate your lighting, sound, services and
appliances. We work with experienced consultants but can also provide
our own input with your Kitchen Design requirements. We will help you to
create the ‘look’ you’re after, whether traditional or contemporary. Modern
homes seldom have enough storage space, primarily because wasted space in a
home is costly and therefore undesirable. We can assist you with the latest
design concepts to provide optimal space utilization and subsequently more
useful storage space. Your new home can be planned to accommodate all your
storage requirements without compromise to style and comfort. Company history: In 2007 Mark and Chris purchased
a Design and Construction company in which they had both held key positions
for a number of years. They changed the company name to Timeless Homes
