New Home Design
KosCAD creates tailored residential designs that prioritise natural light, spatial flow, and environmental integration. Our process involves 3D visualisation, budget analysis, and sustainable material selection to deliver functional, aesthetically modern homes. We handle regulatory compliance and coordinate with consultants to ensure seamless project execution from concept to approval.
Multi-Residential Design
We specialise in multi-unit developments that maximise site yield while meeting regulatory requirements. Our designs balance density with livability, incorporating energy-efficient systems and communal spaces. With 20+ years of experience, we provide end-to-end solutions from concept sketches to council documentation for townhouses, duplexes, and apartment buildings.
Drafting Documentation
Our drafting services convert client concepts into detailed, code-compliant construction documents. Using advanced software, we produce accurate floor plans, elevations, and structural details, ensuring clarity for builders and compliance with Australian standards. We offer fast turnaround times and 3D visualisation to validate designs before construction.
Extensions Renovations
We transform existing spaces through strategic renovations that optimise functionality and aesthetics. Services include adding decks, carports, room extensions, and commercial upgrades. Our team advises on council regulations and ensures new additions harmonise with original structures while meeting modern living requirements.

Report
We are very happy with the work Otto has done for us in the design for townhouses. He is very easy to deal with, open to our suggestions and very happy to listen to our requests and explain why he thinks a particular design is worth doing (or changing). We would never have thought of all the things that will make our townhouses work well. We'd be happy to recommend Otto and Koscad.
