In the Design Development phase, Arkhaus refines the approved schematic design, incorporating technical and regulatory considerations. We prepare detailed design documentation, coordinate with relevant consultants, and ensure that the proposed design remains aligned with statutory requirements and project objectives. It is important to understand that design evolution may introduce changes, and cost estimates at this stage remain indicative until further engineering, consultant input, and tendering processes are undertaken.

For projects requiring Council Development Applications (DA) or other approvals, we assist in preparing submission packages, liaising with authorities, and guiding clients through regulatory processes. While we work diligently to meet council requirements, the approval process remains subject to council discretion, regulatory interpretations, and potential external factors beyond our control. Clients should be aware that approval timelines and outcomes may vary.
