Many People have asked 'What is a Building Designer' compared to a draftsman or an Architect? Building designers are the people who design most of the residential and other work in Australia, but no one has ever heard of them. Retail designers are those who design shops and cafes, patisseries, restaurants, florists, butchers, bakers & franchise stores.
Building a home or adding a second floor or extension excites many people, especially those who have lived in less affordable living. Home designing & building is sometimes a life long project; however, it can be a stressful and challenging journey for those without experience. Many people simply don't know how to get started.

George was recommended by a friend and we have been very impressed with his service. From the outset he was efficient and professional. He has been able to effectively guide us through a CDC/DA process considering our needs, budget etc and making sensible recommendations throughout. He is always happy to chat things through in a professional, yet relaxed manner - which is exactly what we needed undertaking our first renovation. We have also benefited from utilising other providers from George's network, which has been much appreciated. Thank you George.

Positive: Responsiveness
George was quick, efficient, responsive and really friendly. He designed an addition to our home and talked us through the whole process and came up with a creative way to accomplish what we wanted, as well as putting us in touch with other professionals we needed. I highly recommend his services.

My experience wasn't pleasant. Firstly, George asked me for a deposit up front before we even met. This was a mistake on my part as i should of at least met him first and run things by him to get a feel as to whether he could deliver the goods. I won't do this with the next designer. Other architects have met me onsite and offer a preliminary mtg even before a dollar has been asked for.
Second, George asked if we had any idea about the floor plan. We supplied him with one from a home we saw. This was another mistake. I believe, It would be better for your designer to start from scratch. This makes

I wanted to build a granny flat that would be practical, efficient, good looking and cost effective. I decided to engage the services of Gap Designers after finding them on Google. It was a pleasant surprise to find George, he was extremely knowledgeable and a good communicator providing high quality workmanship, I highly recommend Gap Designers.

GAP designers have delivered the best service throughout the whole process of our renovation plan. The support that we received not only during the quote process, the drawing and council application process, it was extended beyond what is normally delivered by architects. Not only did they gave us the best price to fit our budget, they have given us the best support on normally a daunting process. Thanks George. Highly recommended.

George was very professional and efficient . HE made the process very easy . He also challenged our ideas and kept us on budget. Other designers will draw what ever you want, later to find you cant afford to build it. So in this regard he was great, reminding us on cost. He also was very good and fast with additions and variations.
I would definitely recommend George at Gap designs to everyone and I will also use him again.
The best thing you can do is think long and hard about what you want.
Designers are only as good as their clients communication and preparation. If you are well prepared
