New homes
You bring the ideas. We take care of everything it takes to make them real.
Designing a new home is an opportunity to create something entirely your own. Shaped around your site, your lifestyle and the way you want your home to feel.
OLEA Studio provides considered residential design for new homes across the Northern Rivers, guiding projects from the first ideas through planning approvals, detailed documentation and construction.
Your ideas shape the design
We start with how you want to live, then explore the possibilities together to create a home that feels distinctly yours.
01
Tell us what you imagine
Your lifestyle · Priorities · Inspiration · Must-haves
Bring your ideas, references and wish list. We will help turn them into a clear design brief.
02
Explore the possibilities
Layout · Light · Views · Connection · Form
We test different ideas together, refining what works best for you and your site.
03
Shape the details
Materials · Interiors · Joinery · Details
Shape the character of your home through the materials, finishes and details that make it personal.
Behind every new home is a complex process of planning, approvals, consultants, technical documentation and construction coordination.
We manage these moving parts for you, acting as your central point of contact and guiding the project from design through to construction.
You enjoy the design. We handle the complexity.
Planning & approvals
We navigate the planning pathway and coordinate the documentation required for DA, CDC or other relevant approvals.
Consultant coordination
We identify the consultants your project requires, brief them and coordinate their information with the design.
Builder & construction coordination
We can assist with builder pricing and continue working with the project team during construction to resolve questions and maintain the design intent.
Site research & feasibility
Construction documentation
We develop and coordinate the detailed architectural documentation required to move the project towards certification, pricing and construction.
Before design begins, we investigate your site to understand its opportunities, planning controls and potential constraints.
