DA vs. CDC - What’s the best pathway for your new home build or home renovation?
When you’re looking to build a new home or undertake a major renovation, you’re generally presented with two options for getting your plans approved:
Development Application (DA) or,
Complying Development Certificate (CDC).
While each option presents its own pros and cons, there are two main differences between these options.
Functionality vs. Aesthetic in High-End Architectural Construction
When you imagine your dream home, you may envision the premium architectural design you’ve seen in magazines. Subtly beautiful colour palettes, inspired interior architecture and styling, and a seamless elegance to each room.
Alternatively, your aspirations may lean towards natural flow and functionality, as you see yourself walking through intuitively laid out kitchens, living rooms which flow naturally, and subtle storage systems which hide the chaos within.
Whatever your aspiration, most people agree that the most liveable, loveable homes are a clever melding of these two factors: functionality and aesthetic.
So, how does MILEHAM balance functionality and aesthetic in our custom designed luxury homes, to achieve a perfect pairing of the two?

This traditional approach is changing, with a small yet select group of Architects opting to obtain their builder’s license, or visa versa.
It’s a dual-qualification and one-stop-shop approach which gives clients a leading edge on their project. Read on to find out why:
