ABOUT US

ABOUT US

Established in 2008, Habitus Mode Ltd is a small, innovative design-driven practice focused primarily on residential houses, educational facilities, multi-unit terraced housing, and light commercial developments.

​

We approach each brief, each client, and each site as a unique opportunity. We believe that successful buildings, of all sizes are designed to enrich the lives of the people who occupy them and improve the quality of their surroundings.

​

We provide a complete architectural service from design concept to council approval, detailed design and documentation, and contract administration.

​

Our clients are the basis of our practice, and many return to us and refer us to friends and colleagues. A successful design meets our clients needs and exceeds their expectations. We see budgetary constraints as a generator rather than a limit to innovation. Each project is independently costed at sketch design and reviewed at each design stage to completion.

​

Our experience spans small interior refurbishments, alterations + additions to larger bespoke houses, boutique bungalows + villas, and multi-unit residential terrace developments.  We have extensive experience with council regulations and consent application processes.

​

We believe that great buildings result from great clients. Design is an interactive process. We encourage our clients to be involved and collaborate in design decision-making throughout their projects. We endeavour to communicate with, educate and assist our clients throughout this process, so the experience of designing and building a home or other project is rewarding and satisfying.
