🏡 About Australian House Designs Group

Making Home Design Fast, Affordable & Effortless

At Australian House Designs Group (AHDG), we believe great design shouldn’t take months — or cost a fortune.
We’re a dynamic, innovative design team providing fast, reliable, and affordable home design solutions to homeowners, builders, and developers across Australia and beyond.

After more than 30 years in the industry, our co-founder Dave Pasquariello identified a major problem in the traditional design process: it was slow, expensive, and unnecessarily stressful for clients.

So, we decided to change that.

By creating a system where clients can instantly purchase high-quality, build-ready house plans*, we’ve completely transformed the way Australians design and build their homes.

*Please note that you will need to contact us for a quote or engage a local draftsman to complete the working drawings for council submission and construction. 


⚡ Our Mission

To make the process of buying professional home designs faster, easier, and more affordable — saving our clients thousands of dollars and weeks of waiting time.

Every plan available on our website is:
Instantly downloadable
Fully customisable with CAD files
✅ Flexibility to use your own designer or hire us to complete the working drawings


🏗️ What We Offer

Choose a home design you love and download your drawings instantly.

We offer two options:

1. Preview Set - use this set to see your designs floor plan dimensions as well as the external elevations from all sides of the building

2. Working Set - CAD files. These files can be used to modify your plan and complete the working drawings ready for council submission and building. 

Here at AHDG we offer you the full flexibility to either use us to complete your working drawings for you or you may take your CAD files to your own local designer who can then complete them for you.

Whether you’re a builder expanding your portfolio, a developer creating a multi-unit project, or a homeowner building your forever home — we’ve got you covered.

Our designs include:

  • 🏠 Single & Double Storey Homes

  • 🏘️ Townhouses & Duplexes

  • 🏡 Granny Flats & Small Lot Homes

  • 🏢 Dual Occupancy & Multi-Unit Developments

Every floor plan is created and owned by us. We hold an Open Building Design Licence with the QBCC (Licence No. 1312117) — qualifying us to design everything from granny flats to multi-unit high-rise buildings.
