ARCHICENTRE DESIGN CONSULTATION
As an authorised Architentre Architect, the practice can be engaged through Archicentre’s Design Consultation which is an ideal way to commence a project if you’re unsure of your options. We will meet with you at your home to discuss your budget, lifestyle, spatial requirements and options for your home and site. A brief conversation can assist you to work out your best course of action and give you the confidence to proceed with the project. The areas to explore at the initial meeting include:Lifestyle Discussion
- current lifestyle
- future plans and lifestyle changes
- optimising energy efficiency measures
- can the existing building fabric be made more energy efficient/sustainable?
- should the renovation increase your house horizontally or add vertically – or both?
- what would be the most cost effective construction system?
- will local planning scheme and policy controls affect the design?
- what will be the timeframe for the project?
- is renovation, demolition and rebuilding or selling and moving elsewhere the best option?
- is the building budget realistic to achieve my goals?
- do I need to reconsider the brief to match the building budget?
Whatever the outcome, a Design Consultation will help you to explore the possibilities and to decide if the preferred course of action is right. For example, if a new home, alterations and additions or a small development is feasible, you are able to upgrade to an Archicentre ‘Small Renovation Concept’ or ‘Large Renovation Concept’ and the Design Consultation fee shall be deducted. If moving into an established home is the preferred option, we provide an Archicentre Property inspection of the home (or maybe renovation advice prior to purchase).

Services
Threadgold Architecture has been servicing heritage building owners in the Perth & Busselton regions since 1994 and offers a broad range of heritage advice and professional service, including; heritage assessments, conservation management documents, interpretation, heritage asset management andHeritage Council grant applications. The practice believes the key objectives for conservation and heritage planning should be development of culturally significant heritage places and the understanding and guidance of the future building maintenance. The Burra Charter informs the methodology used by our practice to prepare conservation and heritage plans as well as the relevant State Heritage Officebrief. When deemed fit, our practice collaborates with professional historians, structural engineers and landscape architects to ensure a comprehensive understanding of a place.It is vital to understand the history of a site when embarking on building works to a heritage place. The first step is to establish the relevant layers of significance in the history of a place and as the State Heritage Office works with clearly understood parameters – guess work is not an option in heritage matters. Our practice seeks to understand a place’s significance to inform the design decisions of a building development. Site inspections are the starting point to gain an overview of the built environment which is carried out concurrently with an investigation of documentary sources. Working in conjunction with the State Heritage Office, our practice engages specialist sub-consultants such as historians, archaeologists and heritage engineers as required. This thorough understanding of a place, informs the opportunities for complimentary building development or building adaption. Interesting building outcomes can be achieved when the heritage significance is incorporated at the inception of the project and the conceptual building design. Our heritage investigations include research into original finishes, material types, composition of traditional materials and decay processes – this research in turn informs the most appropriate repair methods.
