Building strong partnerships with architects across Sydney’s Inner West.

What we offer to architects
01

Tendering Process

We provide detailed, transparent tender submissions that respect your documentation and design intent. Our proposals are structured to help clients understand allowances, cost drivers, and realistic delivery timeframes — minimising back-and-forth and supporting confident client decisions.

Pre-Design Feasibility

For architects with clients still shaping their brief or exploring budgets, our Pre-Design Feasibility + Budget Alignment service offers early cost clarity before plans are finalised. We identify key cost drivers, provide realistic construction ranges, and flag design implications early — helping you set accurate expectations and avoid redesign.

Full Partnership on Design + Build

When you partner with HXD through the design and construction process, you gain a builder who values collaboration as much as craftsmanship. We integrate early to workshop buildability, streamline documentation, and ensure the final product meets both design and performance intent.

Our Approach to Collaboration

We don’t compete with designers — we complement them. Our role is to provide cost certainty, sequencing logic, and practical insight that supports design excellence.
From early feasibility discussions through to contract administration, we approach every stage with transparency and respect for the design process.

We understand how much time and care goes into your documentation — and we treat it accordingly. Our pricing is detailed, our questions are thorough, and our site delivery is methodical. That’s why many architects see us as an extension of their own team.

How we work with architects

We collaborate at any stage — from feasibility to tender. Whether you need early cost feedback, detailed tender pricing, or a reliable builder for your client’s approved plans, we tailor our approach to suit your workflow.

We’ve partnered with architects across Sydney, including firms such as Archology, Compass Architecture, Sandbox Studio, and Design Plus Drafting — always working as an extension of the design team to deliver exceptional results.
