What do the blueprints offer?
They provide a clear, practical foundation that is tested and ready, backed by extensive design and self building experience. Each blueprint carries years of professional architectural knowledge alongside lived experience of building. The real value is in reducing risk, early decisions become clearer, unknowns are replaced with structure, and the entire process becomes smoother, allowing projects to move forward more quickly.

How much does it cost?
How much does it cost?
You can start from 20,000 USD. This covers the structural timber frame, roof, mosquito mesh openings, and simple durable finishes, creating a liveable tropical shelter that can be expanded over time. From there, the cost will vary depending on size, level of finish, kitchen and bathroom complexity, local timber prices, and whether you self build or hire labour.
