Drafting in Sydney: Know your NEEDS and WANTS when looking for drafting services in Sydney

When it comes to hunting for drafting services in Sydney, it is always recommended that you as the end user, knows some sort of ideas of what you want to do vs your budget. 

It is important to know what you "need" vs what you "want" when it comes to doing drafting design for either a DA application or a CDC application, as this will allowed the designer to give you full advise on what works best with the ciruclation, cost and compliance.

It can easier blow out  of your budget by having too much in the design; when at a lot of the times, some of these spaces are not essential. Never be guided by designers that just persuade you to have this and that. Always reflect on what you actually needs and be honest to your designer about your budget. At the end of the day, a house cannot just look pretty on itself, it needs to be functional and that the money you've spent for is worth the job!

If at times where you are simply unsure what are the potentials of your land/home or what more could you do, seek a feasibility study report from us, at Go Design Solutions.

Tips for end users before and after engaging a designer/draftsperson:

1. Get a piece of paper and write down spaces that you "need" and spaces that you "want".
2. Ask yourself, what are the spaces that you can compromise and what can't?
3. If you are looking at about $1500-$2000 per sqm, what can you afford?
4. Get a feasibilities study report if you are stuck to what you can actually do.
5. Seek for at least 2 options floor plan, which you can use to think and get ideas.
6. Always seek for alternative solutions if the design don't fit your budget.
