At Baxter Design, we aim to make the process smooth and stress-free, offering clear guidance every step of the way.
Our services include:
-
We reimagine existing homes with smart, sensitive upgrades that enhance liveability, flow, and aesthetics. Whether you need more space for a growing family or want to modernise a dated layout, we’ll design an extension that integrates seamlessly with your current home.
-
We create homes that are truly yours – designed from the ground up to suit your site, lifestyle, budget, and long-term goals. Every design is one-of-a-kind, combining creative thinking with practical detail.
We also handle all design documentation and navigate local council and planning approvals on your behalf, ensuring your new home meets both your expectations and regulatory requirements.
-
If you've built a structure like a deck, pergola, or shed without formal approval, we can help. We provide accurate documentation and liaise with local authorities to bring your property into compliance.
-
Gain a clearer understanding of your block with our detailed site analysis reports. These include planning overlays, slope and orientation insights, and opportunities for development – all presented with easy-to-follow diagrams and site-specific advice.
-
We offer professional, on-site consultations to discuss your ideas, evaluate site potential, and outline realistic design outcomes. These meetings are a great way to understand what's possible before committing to full design services. (A small consultation fee applies.)
-
Navigating local planning requirements can be complex – we take care of the documentation and submission process, ensuring your plans meet all necessary regulations for a smooth approval process.
-
Our immersive 3D renders and panoramic images allow you to clearly visualize the design before building begins – helping you feel confident in every design decision.
