About 

​

Our founder completed his degree in Architecture, studied for his Masters and worked on a multitude of projects internationally and in Sydney and Melbourne. They ranged  from apartments to large industrial business parks, retail, commercial,  health, education and  leisure to name a few including Head offices for Sanyo, Phillips, Akai, National Panasonic and the then Lindt chocolate importer.

But his   true passion from day one in University has been functional residential architecture. Over the last six years he has  been totally engrossed in dual occupancy and medium density developments from two unit duplex or dual occs to multi unit projects.

He developed property and understands the value of money and time.

We are  ably supported by architects, town planner, registered building professional drafts person and engineers. The bulk of the design and town planning work is done in house.

​

Our Dream

AuARCHITECTURE strongly believes  design and town planning for residential property subdivision should be affordable and  within the reach of all ordinary, hard working Victorians so everyone get's an opportunity to build wealth.

We all know there is a severe  housing shortage  in Melbourne, which is pushing up property prices and making it beyond our young Melburnian dream to own a first home or  lay the foundation for an investment property portfolio.

At the same time, we believe medium density development,  like developing a backyard, will create a valuable  income stream for cash poor retirees through a dual occupancy subdivision  while creating compact housing opportunities for young Melburnian  families with a strict budget  to live within established areas.

That's our vision for Melbourne. Maximise Land Use to meet the needs of today's society.

Our partners

Our support team include registered building technicians and professionals, architect, town planner, civil and structural engineers, surveyors, landscape consultant, BMO consultant, arborist,experienced builders and all the other professionals required to make your medium density project a success.

Our service beliefs

We will always  respect and collaborate with home owners and investors who wish to develop their property through a dual occupancy or multi unit subdivision.

We will act honestly, Just like an ethical lawyer or doctor who  strives to achieve a great outcome for their clients and patients; we go that extra distance to win high yielding planning permits for property developers.

Our transparency

We tell you upfront what you need to hear and not what you want to hear. That way you don't end up disappointed or frustrated. We believe  professional integrity gives the best return on your investment. We won't hide anything from you from day one.
