How to use the Home Design Library

Why? Because we believe great design should be accessible.

We know having the right plans in hand can take the stress and uncertainty out of building, renovating, or simply refreshing a space. Whether you’re after a full architectural set or just the perfect kitchen, bathroom, or bedroom, our plans give you a designer-level plan as your starting point that you can make your own.

…we’ve built them, so we now they work… now you can build them too!

  • Building your home? Our pre-designed architectural plans make the process faster, easier, and stress-free. Here’s how to get the most out of them:

    1. Browse + Select

    Explore our collection of building plans and find the design that best suits your dream home and what you want to build.

    2. Match to Your Space

    Think about the layout that works best for your site, but don’t forget, you can tweak the plans to make spaces larger or smaller as required. Once you choose, you’ll receive a fully detailed set of plans—floor plans, elevations, and electrical plans and roof plans.

    3. Choose How to Use Them

    You’ve got options depending on your project needs:

    • As-Is Guidance: Use the plans as inspiration and direction when working with your architect, designer, draftsperson, or joiner.

    • Editable CAD Files: Upgrade to CAD versions so your consultant can quickly tweak the design to suit your home—saving weeks of work.

    • In-House Tweaks: Book an Hour of Power design session with us to refine the plans to your exact measurements.

    • Bespoke Updates: Need bigger changes? We can quote custom modifications through our team, or connect you with trusted professionals in your area.

    4. Save Time + Money

    By starting with plans that are already tried, tested, and beautifully designed, you skip the guesswork, cut down on costly revisions, and move forward with confidence.

Step One

Find the plan you need


Browse our collection to discover the right plan for your project — whether it’s a complete architectural building plan or a specific room type like a kitchen, bathroom, or bedroom. Each plan is taken from one of our real projects, so you know you’re starting with a design that works beautifully.

Step Two

Choose the plan you love

Take your time exploring each category and pick the design that resonates most with you. Don’t worry about getting every detail perfect at this stage — the goal is to find a layout and style direction that feels right for your home.

Step Three

Make the plan your own

The beauty of our plans is flexibility. Every purchase comes with the option to upgrade and receive the drawing CAD file. This gives you (or your designer/builder) the ability to edit the plans and adapt them completely to suit your space, sizing, and needs.

Ways to customise the plans

Option One:

PURCHASE THE CAD DRAWING FILE UPGRADE + HAND THE PLAN TO YOUR DESIGNER OR DRAFTSPERSON

Different ways to use the plans

I LOVE THE PLAN BUT I WANT TO USE DIFFERENT MATERIALS + SELECTIONS

Think of the plan as your blueprint… If you don’t love the original finishes or fixtures in the original project you don’t have to use them! It’s easy to apply the fixtures and finishes used in a different one of our projects by exploring the different projects here or create your own from scratch.

I WANT TO EDIT THE PLANS TO SUIT MY HOMES DIMENSIONS SO I CAN BUILD/RENOVATE

Perfect! The best way to do this is to purchase the CAD Drawing File upgrade when you choose your plans. We will email you the working file which allows you or your designer to easily tweak the exisiting plan to your unique dimensions. Not working with a designer? No problems, our team can also do this for you- simply purchase the “We’ll edit it for you” Upgrade which includes a 1:1 with Melissa plus 2 hours or drafting time to edit the plans.

I WANT TO PURCHASE PLANS FROM DIFFERENT DESIGNORY PROJECTS (ie Lavana House Kitchen and Sikata House bathrooms) WILL THIS WORK?

This can absolutely work for your project. We suggest choosing a unifying Sourcing and Selections package to ensure that finishes throughout your spaces stay coheasive but all the plans can easily mix and match!

SAVE TIME, AVOID MISTAKES AND DESIGN WITH CONFIDENCE

✔️ Skip the endless hours of planning and researching — everything’s already beautifully resolved by our expert team.
✔️ Avoid common design pitfalls and costly revisions. These plans are tried, tested, and built to perform.

✔️ These documents are formatted to brief your builder, trades, or consultants — saving time, stress, and back-and-forth during construction.

SAVE MONEY:


✔️ Our ready-to-use home design plans provide access to high-end designs at a fraction of traditional costs. This approach allows you to allocate more of your budget to quality materials and finishes.

✔️ Achieve a professionally designed home that reflects your style and needs, all while maintaining control over your budget.

Please note: While these documents offer a professional foundation, they must be reviewed, adapted, and approved by a qualified designer or architect for your specific site and build. The plans are not construction-ready in their current form and may not be used with reference to The Designory.

In today's climate of escalating construction and living expenses, achieving a designer home can seem financially out of reach. Traditional architectural services for a new home in Australia can range from $15,000 to $80,000, depending on project complexity. This doesn't account for additional costs like interior design, joinery details, or comprehensive schedules for finishes and fixtures.
