small sloping block and also to achieve the best result with views to the city .The
home was designed specifically to suit the profile of the sloping block and to make the
most of the sweeping views towards the city and coastal plains.
BEDFORD
The young family had just purchased a subdivided block and wanted to build
on the rear block. A custom designed home was needed to make the best use
of the sloping block and to maximize the lot’s shape. A large 4 bed, 2 bath

the available space. Plans were prepared for the builder and all the relevant

A couple who has renovated many homes previously found a small 100 year

In consultation with the client, MJ Drafting & Designs nearly double the floor
space while still keeping the unique cottage feel and look, something the
client wanted to maintain. Additional living spaces, two extra beds and a
ensuite was added to the master suite to bring this old cottage into spacious
four bed two bath home. An outdoor living area was also incorporated into
the design

ensuring all the building requirements with regard to ceiling heights, natural lighting,
and ventilation.

TESTIMONIALS
MICHAEL AND MAUREEN, ARMADALE
Martin Visser came highly recommended to us by friends of ours. Now after having used his expertise we would like to
pass on his skills to other. The house we got him to draw up plans for was note only a complete renovation, but also a
major extension. We gave him our ideas for what we wanted, and Martin, with his professional experience and
suggestions, was more than helpful. He listened, then took our ideas and turned them in a home we are absolutely
thrilled with. We have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone looking for a 100% professional draftsman service
PHIL, BYFORD
A while ago, Martin from MJ Drafting & Designs, drew up some plans for a swimming pool at my place in Byford.
Through the process of drawing up the plans and submitting them to the shire for approval, I was very impressed with
the work Martin did. He was very professional and prompt and his work was of the highest standard. Martin made good
suggestions and carefully ensured that all the regulations and specifications were adhered to. I have no hesitation in
recommending Martin’s service to other people.
