Town Planning and Urban Design

 

Ecotect Architects have been invovled in numerous successful urban and regional planning projects for a wide range of clients. Our unique approach to environmental sustainability and cost effectiveness provides a balanced process in the preparation of high quality urban and regional areas.

See examples of our past urban and regional planning projects in the commercial and government sections of our project gallery.

 

Ecotect-Architects has had extensive experience in this field and will produce a concept that incorporates all the sustainability elements for a subdivision or precinct development

Our team does recognize that this field is very complex and for the best outcomes to be achieved it must fit into the economic system in a way that is a victory for all aspects of society.

For this reason we have worked with Linley Lutton who is a specialist urban designer and planner with higher qualifications and a sound knowledge of the development approval process.  For many years we have worked with Max Hipkins, Bill Burrell of Taylor Burrell Barnett planners, Peter Goff, and Peter Driscoll. and many others.

Owing to Garry Baverstock's through his development company Wise Earth Syndicate, extensive practical experience with his own developments in Broome and Geraldton in conjunction with Mike Hulme of Hulme Developments and the Perron Group, the firm is ideally placed to take a major role in this level of decision-making in built environment development.
