About

We are novam design studio

A home is more than just a physical structure. It’s the place to build your dreams, to live your best life, to raise your family, and maybe start a business empire. At novam, we understand that. We’re residential design specialists who for the past 11 years have been helping people just like you to conceptualise and create their dream homes. Based on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, we undertake projects across Sydney and NSW. Our goal is to create dynamic and unique living spaces that truly reflect their owners.

At the core of what we do is building collaborative relationships with our clients. It’s only by getting to know you, by helping you to crystallise and articulate your ideas that we can design for you the home that you long for. It’s our job to interpret your individual requirements and solve any sustainability and budgetary challenges in order to create a practical, beautiful and affordable home.

Fall in love with your home again

There’s a reason you fell in love with your existing house. It’s charm, location and history all worked together to capture your heart. But over time, maybe your needs have changed. And maybe your house has grown a little sad. The honeymoon period has ended.

At novam, we believe we can help you fall in love with your home all over again. By talking through your needs and budget and carefully studying the site and existing structure, we’re able to create solutions that breathe new life into existing dwellings. We can add space for you to grow, add functionality, bring in light, or maybe help capture a view. We understand the need to balance innovative design with return on investment, whether we’re undertaking a new build or an ‘alterations and additions’ project.
