Do I need an architect if I want to build a house in South Africa?
A professional that is registered with the South African Council for the Architectural Profession must submit the building plans before extending, renovating or building a home.

We have bought a newly renovated stand alone house in Craighall. it has 4 bedrooms, two lounges and a dining room. My wishes: to have the home professionally decorated into a stylish, but comfortable home. It needs to be homely, but not basic. I generally like the traditional classic look but this house has modern elements and hence my need for assistance so that it doesn't look confused. The look needs to be sophisticated, but also functional because we have a toddler and family may still grow. Obviously it needs to be cost effective. Expectations: Never having used the services of interior design before, I am expecting collaboration on ideas, advise and sourcing right through to seeing to delivery and staging of the furniture and pieces. Regards

I am not sure on the sqm, but I want to build bachelor flats. Looking at it from outside or far, it should look like one house but in actual fact, it should be 3-4 completely separate bachelor flats that share walls. I am not talking about a typical row of flats, it should look like house from the outside or at least far. I have attached a picture of how i would like each of the flats to look like but there is no picture of how it should look like on the outside. I want modern finishes but not too luxurious, the aim is to rent it out to semi-professionals. Key things are clear separation between areas like bathroom, bedroom, and kitchen, there should be enough room for a double size bed, 4 seat L couch, TV, built in bedroom and kitchen cupboards, sink, washing machine, fridge, kitchen table etc. Keep in mind its a bachelor not a 1 bedroom. The aim is to build at least 4* 3-4 bachelor flats so in total i need about 12-16 flats but obviously i want to start with one unit. Each flat must have its own shower&toilet, small geyser, electrical and water meter and an undercover parking. Roof can be sink. Windows and doors plain other finishes can be discussed in future. My key purpose at the moment is a estimate quotation and possible designs or suggestions.

I’m looking for someone who can understand small spaces and maximize the use of it. Looking for simple, exquisite, modern And functional design. Have a small space so need it to be homely and practical and have the necessities. It’s currently a bachelor pad and need it to be more livable since we’re now spending more time at home.
I have made a simple drawing of what I need to comply with my need it will be a simple mainly open plan 2 bedroom house with a totally open plan kitchen dining room, double garage and my measurement is as follows. Garage of which I will put in a shower toilet and basin in are 10m x 6m then the 2 bedroom main is 30 square, 2nd bedroom 24 square and the open plan dining room / kitchen is 5 x 10 m with a veranda in front of the dining room and it is based on a square type of building to lower cost if I am correct, there will be only shower in the bedrooms and a toilet in each no bath
