— The Studio
Artech Studio was established on a simple premise: that good design must be practical to build, financially sensible to pursue, and clear enough for everyone involved — from the client to the builder — to act on with confidence.
We sit at the intersection of building design, building documentation and property development. This means we understand not only how a building should look and function, but how it will be priced, approved, documented and delivered. Our clients are homeowners, builders and developers — people who value thoughtful design backed by practical expertise.
We work across new homes, renovations and extensions, multi-unit developments and commercial projects. Each engagement begins with a clear scope, a realistic fee proposal, and an honest conversation about what the project requires to succeed.
Technology plays a quiet but important role in how we operate. We use modern design and documentation tools to move faster, collaborate more easily, and produce drawings that are precise, coordinated and ready for construction — without letting the process feel impersonal.
— An Introduction to Artech Studio
Watch our short introduction to learn how Artech Studio works with homeowners, builders and developers — from the first conversation through design and documentation. We’ll explain what to expect and how we can help move your project forward.
— Our Expertise
We offer a complete building design service — the work that takes a project from an initial idea through to drawings your builder can price and construct from. Each service is shaped to the scope of your project; not every project requires every service.
We design buildings from the ground up — new homes, extensions, multi-residential and commercial projects — shaped around your site, your brief and the way you actually want to use the space.
Before drawings begin, we help you clarify the scope, weigh your options and understand what the project requires — so decisions are made with a clear picture of cost, process and likely outcome.
Detailed, buildable documentation that your builder and consultants can work from without ambiguity — the drawings that turn a design into a project that can actually be priced and constructed.
See the proposal before you commit. Our 3D renders and walkthroughs make it easier to evaluate materials, proportions and layout decisions — and to communicate the design with your project team.
We coordinate the design and consultant information needed to support your approval applications — and explain the process so you know what is required, who is involved, and that the final decision rests with the relevant authority.
Realistic cost projections that help you test feasibility, compare options and plan your budget with confidence — informed by current construction data and builder input where appropriate.
— From Vision to Built Reality
From considered homes and transformative renovations to multi-residential developments and commercial spaces, our portfolio reflects a diverse approach to design.
Every project is shaped by its unique context, balancing creative thinking, technical expertise and practical delivery to create spaces that are both distinctive and purposeful.
— Our Approach
Every project is different, but the way we work follows a consistent logic: understand the problem, explore the options, commit to a direction, then document it properly. The result is fewer surprises, better decisions and a design that actually gets built.
We start by listening. What are you building, why now, and what does success look like? This shapes everything that follows.
We work through layout, form and material options against your site, budget and priorities — so the preferred direction is chosen with a clear view of the alternatives.
Good design is not just about appearance. We balance aesthetics, liveability, cost and buildability so the final project makes sense on every front.
We coordinate with engineers, town planners and certifiers where required — preparing the information needed and explaining the process so nothing comes as a surprise.
The design is translated into precise, coordinated construction drawings that your builder can price confidently and build from without guesswork.
Where useful, we stay involved through construction — answering queries, reviewing shop drawings and helping resolve the small issues that always arise on a live project.
— Client Feedback
“Huge thanks to Brad for the incredible plans he provided for our recent character renovation. His thoughtful design approach respected the integrity of the original character Queenslander while bringing a fresh, functional update that exceeded our expectations. Brad’s attention to detail and clear communication made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. We’re thrilled with the result and strongly recommend to anyone embarking on a renovation or new build.”
“I contacted Brad when our architect left us at the last minute, with a short time frame to complete our project. Brad came to our rescue with plans and even found us a great builder, who has completed our project within the specified time frame. Project management, phone calls and contacts were invaluable and we now have a great space in our Early Learning Centre, which is weather proof, secure and open plan. We couldn’t have done it without Brad’s assistance.”
“Not only was the design he came up with great, Brad was very professional, approachable, organised and efficient. He has the care factor and that is something missing from many industries these days. I am very grateful to Brad for caring about our project and ensuring we knew exactly what was involved and set our expectations for the process and timeline. I highly recommend Brad and will definitely utilize his services again.”
“We engaged Brad to draft the plans for the renovation and restoration of our character Queenslander, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. His communication was excellent throughout—clear, timely, and always professional. Brad consistently met deadlines and kept us well-informed at every stage, explaining the process and adjusting plans without hesitation. He worked seamlessly with other consultants, helping the project move forward smoothly. Brad was a true professional and a pleasure to deal with. We’re delighted with the outcome and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him. We look forward to working with him again soon!”
— Studio Director
Brad founded Artech Studio after more than a decade working across the development and construction industries in Australia and New Zealand. He is a registered building designer based in Brisbane, with a Bachelor's Degree in Architecture and additional qualifications in construction.
His background spans the full lifecycle of a building project — from early feasibility and design through to documentation, consultant coordination and on-site delivery. This breadth means he can talk to a first-homeowner about floor plan options in the same conversation as a developer about yield, construction cost and approval risk.
What clients tend to notice is the way he works: organised, direct, and genuinely interested in getting the best outcome rather than unnecessary complexity. Every project is personally guided from the first conversation through to construction.
