"We love the design, but can you make it cheaper?"Every builder has heard this request, and it highlights one of the biggest challenges facing our industry today. The gap between what clients want and what they can afford is widening, leaving architects, builders, and clients frustrated. We need to talk about why this is happening and what we can actually do about it.The solution requires cooperation between clients, architects, and builders from day one. Everyone needs to understand pricing complexities, and we need to work towards realistic briefs that align with financial realities without compromising quality or sustainability.This means involving builders in early design conversations, establishing clear budget parameters upfront, and maintaining open communication throughout the process. When all parties understand the constraints and possibilities, better outcomes become achievable.The industry is evolving, and those who embrace collaborative approaches will be best positioned for success.LINKS:Connect with us on Instagram:   @themindfulbuilderpodConnect with Hamish:Instagram:  @sanctumhomesWebsite:   www.yoursanctum.com.au/Connect with Matt: Instagram: @carlandconstructionsWebsite:  www.carlandconstructions.com/
