OBRA creates refined, functional homes and commercial spaces, unlocking the full potential of both new and existing environments.

OBRA is a Perth-based design studio working with homeowners, builders and developers across Australia. We specialise in residential and commercial design, renovations, extensions, interiors, granny flats and new builds, transforming ideas and existing spaces into refined, functional and buildable solutions.

Our services cover the full design journey, from concept development, space planning and photorealistic 3D visualisation to DA and BA documentation, detailed drawing packages and preliminary project estimates.

With over 15 years of design experience and hands-on construction knowledge, we create carefully considered spaces designed with aesthetics, functionality, compliance and long-term value in mind from the first idea through to approvals and construction.
