Townhouse and dual occupancy design in Melbourne
Explore your site’s potential with layouts that consider access, privacy, open space and buildability from the outset.
Site potential, carefully tested
More homes should still mean good places to live.
We test layouts against site access, neighbourhood context, privacy, open space and the practicalities of construction. Our building experience helps assess the design decisions that influence both everyday living and the cost of delivery.
How we can help
- Preliminary site feasibility and development options
- Dual occupancy, townhouse and multi-unit design
- Access, parking, privacy and private open space
- Planning drawings and coordinated working documentation
The number of homes, design scope and consultant investigations follow a site review. We do not treat land area alone as proof of development potential.

St Albans - 8 Townhouse Development
Design consideration: eight homes need individual identity as well as shared access. The St Albans visualisations use repeated pitched roofs to bring the development together, while changes in brickwork, cladding and entry details distinguish the homes. The access-lane view shows how the buildings address shared circulation. Explore the full project study and seven-image collection.

It means two homes on one lot. The design and any plans to split the land need a site review and the right approvals.
How many homes can fit on my block?
Land size is only one factor. Zoning, overlays, title restrictions, access, parking and the space each home needs must be considered together. We assess these before developing an option.
When should I speak with a builder?
Buildability and cost belong in the design discussion from the start. Our team’s building background helps question complex details early, while coordinated drawings let builders price the same proposed work.
