Design development (Detailed Design)
- Review and update brief (this may take the form of room data sheets and client approval of schematic
design report) - Develop the approved sketch design into a final developed design including plans at each level,
elevations, sections and other details sufficient to fully explain the design (note that this phase
“freezes” the design so that it can be developed into construction documents) - Prepare schedules of materials and finishes
- Prepare furniture and equipment layouts
- Coordinate and integrate information from consultants
- Prepare and report on estimate and program
- Prepare architectural component for planning approval (Development Application) and assist in the coordination of specialist consultant input — timing and requirements for submission may vary
- Assist in approval process by preparing for and attending meetings
- Obtain client’s approval of detailed design and updated estimate, budget and project program

Development Application Deliverables
- Check DA deliverables with local council
