Progetti Style - residential architecture

FAQ file - How the Progetti Style system works...

How can you provide design for my home at such a low cost to me?
 
We own the design and its copyright, you will pay us a Royalty Fee to use the design once only on your site. The design is non-exclusive to you. The design does not include Building Consent documentation (see below).
What do I get with the Progetti Style design pack?
  Dimensioned floor plans, 4 elevations of your selected design to approximate scale
How do I work out if the design will fit my site?
 
Check your local authority (council) town planning rules (coverage, yards etc) against the overall dimensions and areas shown for your preferred design - if in doubt check with a town planning or architectural consultant before final selection of your plan. If your site is subject to design covenants these should be checked also.
What if the design I like doesn't fit?
 
You have 2 options -
  If it is a 'near fit' you can engage an architectural drafting service to make minor modifications to the Progetti Style design once the Royalty fee is paid.
 
Alternatively, if your site requires specific design, you can ask Progetti Style to engage an architectural designer to work with us to meet your requirements - normal architectural consultancy fees are paid directly to the provider in addition to the Progetti Style Royalty Fee for this service.
Can I change the design or materials?
 
Yes, your project your choice! However, we recommend that all changes are discussed with a suitably qualified professional, and that you satisfy yourself that the substitution meets all relevant building and performance standards.
I like the floor plan but want a different look?
  Ask us for other options, stating the style you prefer. Most designs will allow application of different styles and looks. We will contact you directly with ideas.
Can I build in concrete?
 
Yes, Our designs have been developed for construction in masonry, and make efficient use of block modules and wall thicknesses. Other systems or combinations may be considered or suggested such as brick veneer or aluminium wall cladding subject to careful consideration of the products qualities and specifications meeting Building Code requirements.
How do I get Building Consent Documents?
 
You will need to engage suitably qualified drafting & engineering services to prepare your Building Consent documentation to meet the NZ Building Code and local authority (council) standards, and requirements. Other services may be required depending on your site.
Do I have to use any specific consultants or products?
  NO! That is the beauty of this concept. We supply the great design ideas and you decide who to engage to turn the design into your new home. That way you can qualify and choose quality people, services and materials to make your home uniquely yours. You remain in control of your project all the way.
Can you put me in touch with professionals and services to get my project underway?
 
Yes, we are building a database of people who can help. However, it will be your sole responsibility to assure yourself that the service and provider is right for you. All contracts will be direct with the provider and Progetti Style Ltd will not be liable for disputes between clients and other parties.
