Owner/Director & Principal Building Designer
Certificate as an Architectural Technician (C.A.T)
Peter has been the owner and director of a highly successful building design and drafting business since 1985, having studied an Associate Diploma in Architectural Drafting in 1980. Growing up in the Moreton Bay region, and living on the Sunshine Coast for the past 25 years, he has invaluable local expertise and relationships with local councils and communities.
His immaculate eye for detail, extensive knowledge of construction methodology, and incredibly high standards, together with his competitive pricing structure and desire to provide all clients with a premium service and design result, have resulted in a large, loyal client base of builders, developers and everyday renovators who do most of his advertising for him.
ADRIAN LOW
Office Manager & Senior Building Designer
Certificate IV in Residential Drafting
Like Peter, Adrian grew up in the local Moreton Bay area and still lives on Brisbane's northside with his family.

Adrian works on drafting projects that span all facets of residential building design, renovation work, and commercial development, however, he currently specialises in childcare centres and multi-residential developments. He has a particular talent for finding creative, innovative, yet practical solutions for all kinds of difficult projects or design issues.

Great service from the team at Strathpine Design. In particular Adrian. A seamless and time effective process with the outcomes we wanted. I have happily passed on his details to friends & clients looking for a drafting service. Thanks again!
Hannah Courtney
Adrian was amazing. He listened to our concerns with our house plans that had been drafted by another draftsperson and had the plans corrected in no time. Just wish we had used Adrian to begin with as we are certainly that he would have saved us money, time delays and stress. Many thanks Adrian!!
Raelene Schulz
I have used Strathpine Design to design our new home and the results are fantastic. The design optimised the block size and showcased the views. Everyone comments on the great layout! We could not be happier!
Nigel Hall
The team at Strathpine Design & Drafting were a fantastic help when starting the exciting but daunting process of putting our plans together for our new build! We knew we were in great hands after our initial appointment! The team provided fresh ideas and a seamless process from start to finish and excellent communication throughout.
