From first conversation to built outcome, our process gives you clarity, control and confidence at every stage.

See the 5 stages below that provide the overview and outcome.

Overview

This is the initial meeting where we discuss your vision, site, ideas, budget, timeframe and key concerns.

It helps us understand what you are hoping to achieve and whether Starbox is the right fit for your project.

Outcome‍

You understand the process, likely next steps and whether the Project Game Plan is the right starting point.

Overview

Before jumping into drawings, we review the site, brief, opportunities, constraints, planning controls, budget position and project priorities.

This stage helps define the right direction before committing to the larger design and documentation stages.

Outcome

A clear project strategy, stronger brief, identified risks and opportunities, and a fee roadmap for the next stages.

Overview

We develop the concept design, test layouts, explore look and feel, workshop the direction with you, prepare cost estimates and refine the design and prepare the documentation required for council approval where needed.

Outcome

A developed design direction through a series of collaborating workshops and a Development Application submitted for planning approval.

Overview

Once the design direction is resolved and Development Approval (DA) granted, we prepare detailed architectural documentation, coordinate with consultants, review technical requirements, codes, standards and work toward Building Approval (BA).

Outcome

A coordinated documentation package ready for approval, pricing and construction.

Overview

We can assist with tendering, builder questions, contract setup, construction-stage queries and site reviews to help protect the design intent and support better decisions during the build.

Outcome

A smoother transition from drawings to construction, with architect management through the construction stage to ensure the outcome is as per documentation.
