Our process

From first enquiry to final handover

01

Concept & Brief

We start with your brief and vision — working with your architect or designer, or coordinating that design work ourselves, to shape a scope and budget that’s realistic before a single drawing is finalised.

02

Design & Documentation

We work through the drawings and detailing needed to make the design buildable and permit-ready, so pricing and programme are based on a scope that actually holds up on site.

03

Construction

Our in-house team delivers the build to spec, with defined quality checks at every stage and the same standard from first cut to final fix.

04

Handover

Work is verified and signed off before handover, so what you receive matches what was designed and promised at concept.

Client Reviews

"As a designer, it was a pleasure to work with Nick and Lachie on a small project in Brunswick. The initial consultation, discussing the project timelines and on-site visits were well-managed and clearly communicated. The team and the appointed trades work complemented the drawings and delivered the project with genuine care. I look forward to collaborating with them again and recommend them for high-end residential projects."

"I am delighted with my new bathroom completed by Nick and the Artifakts team earlier this year. All certificates and insurance were obtained without any trouble. The workmanship is outstanding and everyone was pleasant and reliable. The site manager Lachie was brilliant, closely supervising the carpentry apprentices and making sure that the work completed by other trades was exactly as it should be. I was living in the house during construction and I appreciated that everyone who came on site was respectful and pleasant. The bathroom itself is beautiful and highly functional. A great outcome thanks to Nick and Lachie and the team."
