Splitting design from construction is where most residential projects lose time and money. A designer hands over drawings, a builder prices them, the number comes back high, and the redesign starts — often twice.
Safana works the other way around. We design with construction cost in the room from day one, lodge the Development Approval ourselves, and carry the same brief through to the finished build. Buildability gets checked while it is still cheap to change.
You get one contract, one accountable party, a fixed price — and one phone number when you have a question.
Drawings, material selections and engineering reviewed together before pricing is locked in.

How it works
Four clear stages, one point of contact
You deal with the same person from first conversation to final handover — no call centres, no shifting goalposts.
01
Consultation
We sit down with you, walk the site and listen to what you actually want — then tell you honestly what it takes.
02
Design & approvals
Concept drawings refined with you, then Development Approval lodged and managed on your behalf.
03
Fixed price build
A fixed price quote and programme before work starts, then trades coordinated to that schedule.
04
Handover & warranty
Final inspection walked through together, documentation handed over, and Home Warranty on the work.
