Make Your Home Flow Brilliantly
Don't Let a Poorly Planned Layout Cost You Thousands... 
Save money, stress, and years of regret with expert review from Interior Architects who know what actually works

Get professional floor plan feedback that spots costly mistakes before you build.

Here's what nobody tells you about floor plans.

 

Most people think their builder or designer has thought of everything. They trust the process. Sign off on the plans. Start building.

 

But here's the truth...

 

Small oversights happen all the time. And they're expensive to fix later.

 

Poor room flow that makes daily life awkward. Dead spaces that waste square footage. Rooms that get no natural light. Furniture that doesn't fit where you planned.

 

You end up living with frustration for years. Or paying thousands to renovate what should have been right from the start.

 

The worst part? These problems are invisible until it's too late. You can't see them in 2D drawings. You only discover them after you move in.

 

And it's not your fault. Reading floor plans is a skill. Spotting potential issues takes experience. You shouldn't have to become an expert just to protect your investment.

What if an expert reviewed your plans with fresh eyes? Someone who's seen hundreds of layouts. Who knows what works and what doesn't. Who can spot the red flags you can't see.

 

That's exactly what our Floor Plan Review service does.

It’s a creative, expert review of your floor plan before the renovation or new build begins.

Avoid costly layout mistakes and build with confidence. Submit your plans, and our tetris master Rachael will review them through a functional, liveability-focused lens so your home feels as good as it looks.

Layout Impacts Everything — Let’s Make It Work for You

Designing your forever home should feel exciting, not overwhelming. But so often, we’re expected to approve floor plans that haven’t truly been considered for how we live day-to-day.

Most plans prioritise structure, not how light moves through your home, where furniture fits, or how you’ll flow between spaces. Once the slab is down, it’s too late to make changes without stress or cost.

This is your chance to sense-check your layout with a trained eye – and make smart, considered updates now.

We’ll help you:

  • Catch potential layout issues before they become costly regrets

  • Create better flow, connection, and functionality across your home

  • Feel more confident about how your space will support your lifestyle

This Review is Designed For You If...

You’re planning a new build or renovation on your forever home, holiday home or investment property

You’re already working with a builder or draftsman but want a second opinion

You value design, sustainability, and thoughtful detail

Your want to make intentional decisions without overhauling the entire process 

You love creative spaces but feel unsure about your current layout

​You know your space has potential – you just need someone who can see it with you

Common Floor Plan Mistakes I See All the Time

Use this as a quick sense-check before you lock in your layout:

  • Entry lacks intention — awkward access or no visual flow into the main living space

  • Living areas disconnected — poor connection between kitchen, dining, and lounge

  • No natural light strategy — missed window opportunities or dark internal zones

  • Furniture doesn’t fit — spaces look fine on paper, but don’t accommodate real furniture sizes

  • Dead zones or awkward transitions — circulation paths eat up usable space

  • No privacy planning — bedroom doors facing toilets, or master too close to noisy zones

  • Laundry as an afterthought — poor layout or cramped space with no storage

  • Wasted hallway space — long corridors without purpose

  • Bathrooms poorly placed — no natural ventilation or squeezed into leftover corners

  • Not designed for real life — layout doesn’t reflect how the family lives, moves or grows

  • Storage overlooked — not enough built-in storage or poorly located linen cupboard

  • Want to avoid these? I’ll help you spot what’s not working and suggest smart, considered tweaks that improve how your home flows — before the build begins
