About Rob Harris



As our needs change, so must our homes. Sometimes you need more rooms to give your growing teenagers privacy. Or maybe the kids have flown the coop and now the house feels empty. This calls for a renovation - but you’re afraid of getting it wrong and wasting money.


That’s where Elements of Home comes in. As an experienced architect, I can present a creative design solution for your needs and am always transparent about my fixed fee pricing. I can also handhold you through the complicated renovation process and even deal with consultants and councils to minimise your headache.


Home transformation doesn’t have to be a whole ordeal. Let me take care of it for you.

HOW WE CAN HELP YOU


As part of our process, our fixed fee proposals for home extensions work are generally broken down into the following stages:



01.

CONCEPT DESIGN

We visit and measure your entire property so that we can transfer it to computer and prepare a number of design options for discussion. This is where we will explore all the different design options available to you based on your brief and budget.


02.

ESTIMATING

Once the concept plans are finalised, we will send your plans to builders so you have comfort and confidence the design meets your budget before proceeding to the permit stage.


03.

TOWN PLANNING

For many clients a town planning permit is required. We will let you know during our first conversation if this is required. If it is we will prepare all relevant drawings and reports and liaise with council on your behalf.


04.

SUBDIVISION PERMIT

We will prepare all the drawings and relevant documentation necessary to obtain a subdivision permit, including working with professional builders &external subcontractors where needed, for example: engineers, geo-technical specialists, land surveyors, energy rating providers, etc.

“Rob was a delight to work with on my application for an extension to the Bayside City Council. It was my first time applying and so I appreciated the time Rob took walking me through the stages of the application, the costs involved, and high level design options.

Once we decided on our budget and basic requirements, he worked through several iterations and ideas with us until we were happy with the final design.

He was meticulous with the documentation submitted to the council, which was evident by the fact how quick we received our approval.

For anyone else wanting to work with Rob, I think the stand-out points are that he will stick to his budget, he is experienced and brings this to the process, and has a very good work ethic.”

SEE MORE TESTIMONIALS

“My wife and I engaged Rob on what was a relatively small but really quite complex extension to our brick Victorian-era home. Our immediate impression of Rob was that he had great creativity, but was also extremely practical and knowledgeable of various Councils and their various and respective approaches to development, particularly where there is heritage overlay.

Rob’s design ideas and plans came through surprisingly quickly, and were very much on point with what we imagined. The quality of the plans / drawings was excellent.

On reflecting on our interactions with Rob, it is his willingness to resolve issues and problems that were not his doing that stand out to me as truly exceptional.Rob’s responsiveness, professionalism, knowledge, creativity and practicality were outstanding and he was truly the ‘glue’ the held our project together.

Since our project completed, I have recommended Rob to three different acquaintances.”
