Town planning

In-house town planning services
Getting the planning approvals you need for your home or development project can be a long and complex process. When you’re investing in a building design or development of any budget – for a home renovation, or on a commercial or industrial site – it helps to have someone on your team who has seen it all.
Sembrano Design is your one-stop shop for planning applications, building design, compliance certificates, heritage consultations, and much more. Paulo Sembrano’s town planning qualifications and love of problem-solving makes its mark on all our town planning work – we’ll listen carefully to your challenges and workshop the solution.
We specialise in master planning for subdivisions as well as small-scale planning + development.
Take the stress out of the development application process by engaging the experienced professionals at Sembrano Design.
