What’s Possible for Your Newcastle Home

Your home’s exterior should feel like a true expression of your personality not just a generic shell or an afterthought. The right facade design creates curb appeal, brings balance to your home’s architecture, and adds real long-term value.

But achieving that result isn’t as simple as picking a new paint colour or swapping the front door. It requires a cohesive, expert-driven design that considers your goals, budget, and the unique character of your property.

At Hotspace Consultants, we help Newcastle homeowners turn tired, mismatched, or outdated facades into modern, well-resolved exteriors. Whether you’re renovating a weatherboard in Hamilton, extending a brick home in Kotara, or refreshing a coastal property in Merewether, our facade design plans give you the clarity and confidence to move forward without the guesswork.

Led by nationally recognised exterior designer Jane Eyles-Bennett, our process is backed by over 20 years of experience and 800+ transformations across Australia. With a professional facade design plan in hand, you’ll have everything you need to bring your Newcastle home up to date beautifully and strategically.

Your Newcastle Facade Design Questions, Answered

Can you work with my builder’s or architect’s plans?

Yes and it’s a core part of what we do.
If you already have elevations or floor plans from your builder, architect, or draftsperson, we can work directly from those to create a cohesive, customised facade design. Whether you’re renovating a post-war home in Hamilton or building new in Warners Bay, we make sure your exterior reflects your style and enhances your home’s layout.

Do you need to visit my home in Newcastle to create the design?

No our process is 100% virtual and location-flexible.
We’ve successfully designed over 800 facades across Australia without ever stepping foot on-site. Through detailed questionnaires, existing plans, and high-quality photos, we’re able to capture everything we need to deliver a professional, personalised design wherever you are in Newcastle or the Hunter region.

What’s included in the Facade Design Plan?

Everything you need to bring your exterior to life with clarity and confidence.
Each plan includes:

  • A visual mock-up of your redesigned facade (photo-realistic illustration)

  • A specification sheet detailing colours, finishes, materials, lighting, and more

  • Expert guidance tailored to your home’s existing structure, location, and goals
    This plan can be handed directly to your builder, tradesperson, or draftsperson to execute with precision.

How much does it cost?

Facade Design Plans start from $5,900 + GST.
The final quote is based on the complexity of your project. We’ll review your needs, layout, and goals before providing a fixed price. With over 21 years of experience, our clients find this investment pays off by reducing guesswork, preventing costly rework, and boosting curb appeal especially important in competitive markets like Newcastle.

Can you help with existing homes, or just new builds?

We specialise in both.
From outdated brick veneers in Mayfield to contemporary new builds in Merewether Heights, our design process is flexible enough to transform any type of home. We often help homeowners:

  • Modernise tired exteriors

  • Blend extensions with existing homes

  • Create a unique look for a new build before construction begins
    Our goal is always the same: a tailored, timeless design that adds real value to your property.
