Job description

Draughting Services
Wanganui

ABOUT THE JOB: We are planning a 2.5-3 bedroom new build later this year, which will be built by us (my husband is a builder). We already have possession of the land, which is 398m2 in total. Our ultimate goal is a compact, eco-friendly home with room for an outdoor area facing (roughly) north-west to optimize afternoon sun. We have been playing around with some designs with Floorplanner software, and have come up with a concept that we really like (images attached). We are now on the hunt for a draughtsperson to transform the concept we have created into legitimate plans. ABOUT THE LAND/SECTION: The land is part of three sections. The section we will be building on first will be the one on the left (smallest section) and is the one on the corner of two streets. My mother-in-law lives in a home in the middle section. The section on the right will be where we build in the future. In our plans, we have positioned the house so that the driveway is coming off the second street (not the same street that my mother-in-law's house comes off). ABOUT THE NEW-BUILD: We are open to any suggestions anyone may have for us, so please feel free to do so! The home will end up being my mother-in-laws in a couple years, therefore there are certain aspects that she has requested be incorporated. These are: - A fireplace - Sliding/pocket doors for bathrooms - A separate toilet from the bathroom - Two bedrooms only, although she was happy to compromise with an additional small nursery/office - Outdoor area optimizing the afternoon sun - Plenty of storage/cupboards - Lots of walls to hang art (she is an artist) All measurements that are seen in the Floorplanner images are not at all accurate and all computer generated. The overall house will need to be: - No more than 18m x 13m. These measurements INCLUDE both the garage and outdoor deck. We do not necessarily require a double garage, although if we were to settle with a single garage, it would need to be slightly wider than a standard single garage to fit a small workspace. Please get in touch if you are able to help out. Thanks!
