CONSULT

Whether it’s your forever home, preparing for sale, refurbishing an investment, refreshing a tired space, or those last few details of a build, it all starts here.

Design Consultation

Your beautiful new space starts with an initial consultation at your site with experienced award winning designer Peter Bachak. At the meeting Peter will discuss your brief and take notes on what you want to achieve, how best to use the space, your ideas, likes, dislikes, lifestyle and preferred colours and materials, and then provide you with solutions on how best to incorporate it all with your existing site and architecture.

Peter will then assist you with design options, concept sketches and mood images for courtyards, gardens, pergolas, pools, ponds and cabanas, as well as discussing product and material selection, planting, lighting, detailing, costing, budget, staging, sub consultants and contractors. You’ll receive honest feedback and advice regarding your ideas and expectations of budget and scheduling, as well as any site constraints for compliance with waterboard, heritage and council approvals.

Consultation Fees

Following your initial consultation you’ll be provided with an itemised fee proposal detailing the design process, as well as an indicative timeline for the delivery of your plans. Osmosis can offer single or multiple design stages to assist you with just one component of your build, or a complete set of documents for all stages.
