TOWN PLANNING | HERITAGE | BASIX

Contributing towards the future.

We work collaboratively and deliver a range of services. Planning for the future and protecting the past, we are experienced and have a passion for the built environment and heritage places.

We assist individuals, architects and developers by providing town planning and heritage advice, engaging with Council to resolve issues, preparing reports and other documents to accompany development applications, and lodging development applications with Councils. We also assist with Complying Development Certificates and provide reports in relation to those proposals.

Considerable experience has been gained working in Central Sydney, the Inner West and Eastern Suburbs of Sydney, but we also service NSW wide.

Since 2003 we have provided expertise and have grown to be one of the most versatile town planning and heritage consultancies in Sydney with a diverse portfolio of projects.

TOWN PLANNING

Over 25 years of town planning experience, working on behalf of the public and private sectors, has resulted in the ability to provide honest and sound town planning advice. We have first hand experience in working for various Councils in the Inner Sydney area and across NSW.
