Most people arrive with a piece of ground, a budget, and a feeling. We turn that into water, shelter, food, energy and waste working as one system rather than five projects that fight each other.
Who this is for
Families buying land, inheritors, and people leaving a city.
You do not need the skills yet, that is what we are for. What you need is a sequence you can act on, priced, in the order your money actually arrives.
What you receive
Everything you need to build it in phases.
The master planThe whole property, drawn, with everything sited in relation to everything else.
Water and catchmentCollection, storage and treatment sized to the household and the rainfall you get.
ShelterStructures specified in natural and durable materials, ready for a contractor to price.
Food and energyGrowing areas, orchard, animals and power, positioned to work with daily life.
The phasingWhat to build first, what can wait, and what each phase costs.
We are a design practice. You are buying the plan: drawn, costed and phased. When you are ready to build it, we supervise while a licensed contractor does the work.
How we design it
Designed to be built in the order you can afford.
A master plan that only works if you build all of it at once is not a plan. Every homestead we draw is sequenced so the first phase stands on its own.
CaptureThe drone flies the parcel and the frames are stitched into a single measured map. The base every later drawing sits on.LayersNeal draws in layers: water first, then access, then structures, then planting. Each layer is a decision you can see and argue with.PhasingEach phase drawn separately, so you can see exactly what your money buys this year and what it unlocks next.
The plates above are drawings from real client work. On-the-ground photography from Neal and Adriana lands alongside them as it is captured. The whole sequence, start to finish, is on a design, start to finish.
