Who we are and what we can do for you

We are a Northern Beaches based residential design studio specialising in creating stunning bespoke new duplex homes that will suit your family’s needs perfectly without breaking the bank and granting you that additional rental income or sale.

We can bring all your ideas to life and bring some of our own too if needed. We will take into consideration your budget, local Council restrictions, the environment, and your family’s unique needs in order to deliver your dream duplex approved by your local authorities in record time.

Our promise to you

A single point of contact

You will be dealing directly with our principal and lead designer throughout the whole duration of your project to make communication and updates simple.

Handling council and consultants

We will organise all the paperwork, consultants, Council lodgement and liaising until we get you your approval of your duplex. All we need is a couple of signatures from you.

Affordable, quality service

Our lump sum fee covers everything you need from start to finish. No hidden fees or variations. We promise to deliver you a quality product based on your brief and your budget.

Two Homes for the Price of One

Designing and building a duplex home costs only a small fraction more than a single home. Yet the result is two architecturally designed homes you could live in, rent or even sell for profit.

Fast Track Your Way to Earning a Profit

Most of our duplex clients either rent or sell half of their duplex home. This rental income could potentially pay for the complete construction cost of the duplex, leaving you in a positive financial situation with a brand new home.

Discover Our Creative Use of Spaces

Everyone uses their spaces differently for their family’s needs. We’ll make sure our design complements your day to day life with functional spaces, privacy from neighbours and plenty of storage.

Don't Worry About Codes & Restrictions

All our designs take into consideration respective planning controls so they sail through approvals smoothly so you can start your duplex sooner than later.

Testimonials

The whole process with Jon and the team at ARKH was seamless. We had some ideas and we polished a design that got approved quickly by Council and now we are ready to build at the end of the year. They took care of all the pain of the approvals and documentation. Can’t recommend them enough!

Yanni & Corine, Allambie Heights

I would totally recommend ARKH Design Studio. They were very professional when designing the plans for my project in Seaforth. Jon was a pleasure to work with. He was more than happy to make suggestions, but he was also very responsive to my ideas and the plans for approved by Council very smoothly.

Anna & Dimitri, Seaforth

Working with Jon on our project in Dangar Island was great. He was really helpful and his experience was greatly appreciated. We are close to finalizing our construction and he has been helping us through out the whole way with small changes and recommendations.

Stephen & Caroline, Dangar Island

When we acquired our property in Wahroonga it was in desperate need of a rear extension, we interviewed several architects, and found Jon to have the experience, professionalism and enthusiasm that we were looking for. Jon was terrific to work with throughout the design and approval stages, he patiently collaborated with us to transform our requirements and wish list into an inspired and detailed specification. Jon’s vision and creativity resulted in an exceptional design that surpassed our expectations.

Terry & Sarah, Wahroonga
