Renovations & Extensions

Thoughtful residential renovations and extensions across the Northern Rivers.

Whether you are reworking an existing layout, adding more space or planning a larger transformation, OLEA Studio can help you develop a practical, considered design that makes the most of your existing home.

Our involvement can be tailored to the scale and needs of your project, from focused design and planning approval services through to complete architectural, interior and construction documentation.

Every renovation is different, but most projects follow a similar pathway. Our involvement can be tailored depending on the scale of your project and the level of support you need.

How does the renovation process work?

Feasibility & Brief

We start by understanding your existing home, what you would like to change, your budget and any relevant planning or site constraints.

Concept Design

We explore layout options and design ideas to find the most practical and considered solution for your existing home.

Design Development

The preferred design is refined, including materials, key details and coordination with any consultants required for the project.


Planning & Approvals

Where approval is required, we prepare and coordinate the documentation for a DA or CDC application, including relevant consultants and supporting information.

Construction Support

For projects requiring further involvement, we can continue working with your builder and consultants during construction to help resolve design and documentation matters.

Not every renovation requires every stage. Our services can be tailored to suit the scale, budget and complexity of your project.
