COSTING & ORDER LISTS (page 1 of 3)
Detailed construction drawings complete with an up-to-date cost estimate and comprehensive materials order list can be purchased below. These drawings can be submitted to local council for approval as is, with the addition of a site plan, engineer's certificate, and whatever else your council requires, although they still might require you to engage a local building certifier.
The drawings available here for purchase are the most affordable-to-build version of this design. Each location and building site will have its own specific requirements, and each owner will have their own preferences and budget for external cladding, insulation, glazing, internal wall and ceiling lining, and quality of internal fit-out, fixtures, and finishes. A detailed list of items that need to be selected by the owner is included with the cost estimate provided with the drawings.

Please note that purchase of the documents below does NOT include free design and technical advice. You are purchasing documents only. If you would like to engage David Macfarlane as your design and/or construction advisor, this can be done by arrangement on an hourly or contractual basis.
As simple as these designs may appear, hundreds of hours, many thousands of dollars, and more than fifty years' building and design experience have gone into researching, developing, prototyping, and perfecting them – including selecting the most economical components and materials, testing ideas and designs in practice, simplifying construction details to minimise labour, and adjusting dimensions to suit standard component sizes in order to minimise cutting and waste.
