Commercial Design

As a regional architectural practice we have worked on a broad range of commercial architecture projects across most commercial sectors. We pride ourselves on being able to assist clients across all stages of the building process including master planning, funding applications, feasibility studies, liaison with government departments, new buildings, alterations, contract management and post-occupancy evaluation.

Our Approach

Since 1974 SLAP Architects designs establish a harmonic relationship between the architecture, the environment and the end-user.

Our practice’s design conscious philosophy fast established a reputation in residential projects for enhancing the beauty of the surrounding coastal landscape. Today we remain the leader in Residential Architecture in East Gippsland. Slap Architects are also the consultant of choice to local Health and Education institutions, Commercial projects and Tourism developments. Providing superior Architectural solutions which transcend our client’s needs is what we are renowned for. Our designs establish a harmonic relationship between the Architecture, environment and the end-user.

We design to meet current needs and anticipate future developments, seeking new directions in design and architecture to ensure we are competitive, progressive, innovative and environmentally responsible. Slap Architects endeavour to create buildings which improve lives, are a joy to use and which minimise environmental impact and optimise energy efficiency, a holistic approach from beginning to end. A sense of place is also essential to our working process; not a fixed architectural language, but working in response to a site melding local materials where relevant so that our schemes are rooted in their context. 

Led by our principal architect, Len Chapman, the team at Slap prides itself on delivering an exceptional customer experience to our clients across the Architectural and Interior Design services we offer, we also provide site analysis, master-planning, feasibility studies and project management..
