What is a Developer Masterplan Report?

Building on the success of our Home Masterplan Report, we’re introducing a new service for our developer clients - the Developer Masterplan Report for projects from 2-6 dwellings.*

This initial stage is where we begin to weave inspiration, opportunities and constraints of past and place into your brand narrative.

A Developer Masterplan Report is the strategic piece that will give you clarity to move forward.

A Developer Masterplan Report is ideal for clients still deciding on:

  • Strategic Direction [sell, hold, or build],

  • Scope of Works [unit types and quantities],

  • Budget [how much do you choose to invest for the outcome]**,

  • Configurations [should the master suite be at the front of the house or on level 1], and/or

  • Professional Guide [who will lead you through this process).

Reduce risk with your next development. Work with an architecture firm that understands construction methods that will create a desirable home with details that won’t make your foreman tear his hair out!

*For single investment dwellings we recommend our Home Masterplan Report. For developments 7 dwellings please contact us for a price upon application.

**This report is available to non-residential developments upon application - however for projects of this nature a Quantity Surveyor Cost Plan is required at an additional expense.

What should I expect?

Every client and every design in our office is unique. The process of a Developer Masterplan Report is a tried-and-true system.

1. Book a Clarity Call

Book a Clarity Call to see if we’re a good fit for your project for the stage you’re at right now. If, once we’ve spoken, you decide to proceed with a Developer Masterplan Report as the next step we’ll proceed to Step 2. If you’re not quite ready, we’ll reach back out at a prearranged time (potentially weeks or months later) when you’re ready to chat again.

2. Engage Us For Your Developer Masterplan Report

The Developer Masterplan Report additional information and Fee Proposal will be emailed to you. We require the proposal accepted and fixed fee invoice settled in advance. Once this has occurred, we’ll send you a link to book a House Call with Audrey at a time that’s convenient to you.

3. Face-to-Face

During the Face-to-Face with Audrey at your office or a location convenient to you, we’ll investigate the existing conditions and go through your Brief in detail. This meeting is typically 1.5-2hrs in duration.

4. Relax

Relax. Over the next 3-6 weeks we’ll prepare your Developer Masterplan Report. If you have additional information or thoughts, you’re more than welcome to send them through during this time. When the report is ready, we’ll send a second meeting link so you can book an Online Client Design Review Meeting at a time that’s convenient to you.

5. Client Design Review Meeting

At the Client Design Review Meeting we will walk through every page of your report and hear your feedback. From here we will work with you to identify a scope of works to proceed with to the next stage.

 

What is Included?

The Masterplan Report is the first step in your development design project. We start putting on paper the architectural inspiration, site opportunities and constraints, and your market brief that will define your project - beginning the deep-dive into what inspired you to take this journey. This may also be referred to as a Feasibility Study, Asset Management Plan, or Spatial Analysis by some firms though the terms are not strictly interchangeable.

A Masterplan Report is a collation of a site analysis, inspiration images, spatial analysis diagrams (a.k.a. “Masterplans”) and topped off with an Opinion of Probable Cost to start the budget conversation.

Our Developer Masterplan Reports always present three options that provide a range of possibilities. These options reflect a sliding scale between meeting all your requirements and adhering to the specified budget. By presenting these options, we aim to provide you with flexibility and the ability to make informed decisions that align with your vision and financial considerations.

On the rare occasion that a clients’ budget and dream requirements are already aligned that gives us the freedom to explore layout options which may reflect alternate lifestyle preferences.

Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.

So What Next?

A Masterplan is not a development design. It’s a strategic vision. The first ground rules in a campaign that may stretch across a number of months or years.

Visions will be refined.

Designs will evolve.

Until the day where you and your team of trusted advisors delivers into reality your vision of the ideal lifestyle for you and your family.

Start your journey on the right foot.
