DA, CDC & subdivision-aware design
Duplex & Dual Occupancy Design Sydney
Duplex feasibility is decided by more than lot width. AusJu considers zoning, frontage, site area, access, trees, drainage, parking, private open space, built form and the intended title or subdivision strategy before design is advanced.
For homeowners, builders and small developers assessing attached or detached dual occupancy opportunities.

We review the planning pathway and major site constraints before committing to a detailed design.
Design two good homes
Each dwelling needs privacy, daylight, functional circulation, useful outdoor space and a coherent street presence.
Coordinate the technical team
Survey, stormwater, BASIX, landscape, engineering and other required inputs are integrated into the submission.
Keep construction in view

Common questions
Is lot frontage alone enough to confirm a duplex?+
No. Frontage is only one control. Zoning, site area, access, constraints and all applicable standards must be checked.
Can AusJu assist with Torrens subdivision?+
We can coordinate the design and relevant consultant inputs, while subdivision advice and specialist work are confirmed for the individual project.
