Sembrano Design

Our building design sweet spots

Home renovations, alterations and additions with sustainability always at front of mind. We work with you to problem-solve the challenges of your existing home – whether that’s creating solutions for extra living space, another bedroom, a study, or even a granny flat or other on-site building.

New buildings, including homes, commercial premises and buildings for industrial complexes, such as industrial units.

Sembrano Design is a one-stop shop for sustainable building design, home renovations, planning + approvals, project management and more. Once we’ve worked together on building design, many of our clients choose to continue working with us through to project end – from compliance checks through to interior design and more.

From our clients

Sembrano Design worked closely with us to bring our vision to life. Professional, thorough and detailed.
I cannot tell you how excited I am to see this dream house being built to life by Sembrano Design. The construction guidelines were prepared very well; our expectations were fully understood from day one.
Initiative, leadership and guidance during my change of use application, town planning and building design – making the process and transition smooth.
Thank you for your input, ideas and innovation towards making each project you are engaged in a success.
Paulo listened to our ideas then offered suggestions that have absolutely ‘made’ our small space. Highly recommended.
