Our
Team

Capabilities

Urban Intensification

Multi‑unit housing, medium‑density typologies, mixed‑use developments, and complex urban and suburban sites. Our strategic early‑stage process is especially valuable in this space, where density, planning rules, and commercial factors intersect.

Land Development Feasibility

Our team delivers strategic masterplanning and feasibility studies that turn land opportunities into viable developments. Our approach integrates planning requirements, infrastructure considerations, market demand and buildability. We ensure every project is both commercially viable and architecturally considered.

Commercial

From workplaces to warehouses and mixed‑use, we elevate your brand identity creating commercially astute designs supported by feasibility‑based decision making.

Custom Residential

For private homeowners, we guide decisions through clarity, realism, and collaboration, ensuring your home is loved from concept to completion.

Approach

Design begins with decision‑making. At Gel, we don’t jump straight into a single solution. We begin by testing feasibility, exploring multiple options, and identifying constraints early - planning rules, density potential, cost implications, and site-specific challenges.

This early-stage clarity means you:
· See what’s truly possible on your site
· Compare pathways before choosing a direction
· Understand implications and trade‑offs
· Minimise redesign risk
· Make decisions backed by data, not assumptions

Once the best option is clear, we develop it into a resolved, buildable, and refined design outcome.

Most redesign risk occurs because decisions are made too early, with too little information. Our process reverses that pattern.

Feasibility first. Options early. Design once.

Working with you

Understanding you, your site and your goals.
Every project begins with a dive into what matters most: outcomes, constraints, commercial targets, and any unique project drivers.
Being open early means we can test realistic scenarios and drive you toward the most effective solution.
You choose a direction knowing why it’s right - not with guesswork.
