Choosing between house designs in Perth
Choosing a home design in Perth comes down to three honest questions: how you live, the block you are building on, and what matters most inside the home. Single storey designs keep everything on one level and suit families who want easy flow and no stairs. Double storey designs free up the ground floor and make the most of a smaller footprint, which is useful on tighter Perth blocks. Speaking of blocks, lot width changes everything. Narrow blocks reward clever floor plans that draw light and space inward, while standard blocks give you more room to spread out. Whichever way your block runs, our house plans across Perth are designed to suit. The home designs Perth buyers come back to are the ones that fit real routines rather than a showroom. Think about where you cook, gather, work and unwind, then let that shape the plan. When you are ready, our new home designs range gives you room to personalise rather than start from scratch.
How designing your home works
Building a home should feel clear from the first conversation. Here is how we work with you, step by step, from a first chat to the day the build begins.
1. Have a chat with us
Tell us how you live, what you love and the block you have in mind. No pressure and no jargon. This first conversation is about understanding you, so we can point you toward the designs that genuinely fit.
2. Explore our designs
Browse the range and find a plan that feels right, then make it yours. We work through layout, flow and the choices that matter to you, so the design suits your block and the way your household actually uses a home.
3. Lock it in & build
Once the design and inclusions feel right, we confirm the details and get building. Honest pricing means you know what is covered before you commit, with no surprises buried in the fine print.
Why build with Residential Attitudes
We are a design-led Perth builder for the mid-to-upper market, and there is nothing cookie-cutter about the way you want to live or our designs. Our homes are not built for perfect lives. They are designed for the real rhythms of living, because life does not need to be perfect to feel right. With clever design, honest pricing and a straightforward approach to building, you get a home that feels like you without the cost of starting from a blank page. We believe in quality of space over quantity of space. Less really is more when you know what you want and why you want it. We will provide you with a plain breakdown of what build-only does and does not cover. That is the difference between a home that looks like everyone else’s and one that is unmistakably yours.

What is the difference between house plans and house designs?

How do I choose a design for my block?
Start with your lot width and orientation, then match a design built to suit that block. Narrow blocks reward plans that bring light and space inward, while standard blocks give you more room to spread out. If you tell us about your block, we will help you shortlist the designs that fit it best.
How do I get started with a new home design in Perth?

Do you have house designs for narrow or small blocks?
Yes, several of our house designs Perth buyers choose are suited to narrow and smaller blocks. Clever floor plans draw light and space inward, so a narrower frontage does not mean a smaller-feeling home. If you have a tighter block, talk to us and we will point you toward the plans that work best for it.
Should I choose a single storey or double storey design?
Choose single storey if you want everything on one level with easy flow and no stairs, and double storey if you want to free up the ground floor or make the most of a smaller footprint. Single storey suits families who value flat, open living, while double storey works well on tighter Perth blocks where you want more home on less land.
Can I customise one of your home designs?
Yes, you can personalise our home designs to suit your block and the way you live. Rather than starting from a blank page, you choose a plan you love and work through layout, flow and the choices that matter to you, so the home feels genuinely yours without the cost of a full redesign.
