Every great renovation starts with an idea!

For this project, we’ve taken the existing home and explored how thoughtful design can transform the way the spaces look, feel and connect.

From the existing floor plan and elevations through to the 3D concept, you can start to see the transformation taking shape — with a striking new roofline, expansive glazing, warm timber detailing and a beautiful outdoor living area designed to make the most of its surroundings.

This is the exciting part of building design, seeing the possibilities before construction even begins.

Now that winter has really arrived, does your living room feel like the heart of the home… or just another room?

The colder months have a way of bringing everyone together, movies on the couch, board games with the kids, a warm drink by the fire, and those simple moments that make a house feel like home.

One of the most common things we hear from families is:

“We don’t have enough room for everyone to gather.”
“The lounge feels dark and disconnected.”
“We want a space that feels warm and inviting.”

Sometimes, a well-designed renovation can completely change the way a family uses their home, opening up the living area, improving natural light, and creating a space where people actually want to spend time together.

If you’ve been thinking about updating your home, winter is the perfect time to start planning so you can enjoy the results sooner rather than later.

What would make your lounge room feel more like home?
- a fireplace
- more light
- bigger family space

Every successful development starts with good planning.

We're currently working on the design for a potential 3-unit development, and there's far more involved than simply fitting three homes onto a block.

Every project needs to consider council requirements, including:
✔️ Vehicle access and turning circles
✔️ Driveway widths and gradients
✔️ Parking requirements
✔️ Private open space
✔️ Site coverage and setbacks
✔️ Waste collection areas
✔️ Landscaping requirements
✔️ Neighbourhood character and planning controls

Taking the time to get these details right from the beginning helps create a smoother planning process and a development that's practical, functional, and compliant.

At Mont-Eltham Building Design, we work closely with our clients to design developments that not only maximise the potential of their land but also meet council requirements.

Thinking about developing your property? We'd love to discuss how we can help.

Now that the school holidays are over... are you thinking a little extra space would be nice?

After two weeks of everyone being home, you might have realised your home isn't working quite as well as it used to.

Maybe you need:
✨ A larger kitchen
✨ An extra bedroom
✨ A second living area
✨ A home office
✨ Better indoor-outdoor living

The good news is you don't always need to move house. A well-designed renovation or extension can completely transform the way your home feels.

At Mont-Eltham Building Design, we help families create homes that suit the way they live today.

If you've been thinking about making changes, we'd love to help you explore what's possible.

One home... soon to become three.

Swipe to see where this exciting project began.

What was once a single-family home has now made way for a thoughtfully designed three-unit development.

Every successful project starts with an idea, followed by careful planning, council approvals, detailed design and finally construction. It's always exciting to see months of planning become reality.

Whether you're considering:
✔ Developing your property
✔ Subdividing your land
✔ Building multiple townhouses
✔ Or simply wondering what's possible on your block

We're here to help guide you through the process from the first concept right through to your building permit.

We can't wait to share the next stages as construction progresses.

If you've ever wondered what your property could become, send us a message for an obligation-free chat.

Building or renovating in a Bushfire Prone Area? There have been important changes.

If you're planning to build, extend or develop in Victoria, it's more important than ever to understand the bushfire requirements before lodging your application.

Recent changes to Victoria's planning system mean that some properties in Bushfire Prone Areas may now need bushfire planning to be considered much earlier in the approval process, not just at the building permit stage.

Getting the right advice early can help avoid delays, redesigns, and unexpected costs.

If you're unsure what applies to your property, we're happy to point you in the right direction and help guide you through the permit process.
