Construkt Architects offers design-led Lot Testing services to assess how well different housing typologies can be accommodated on a site. This service supports informed land acquisition by identifying design opportunities and constraints before committing to a purchase or development strategy.

Our team tests potential layouts against planning rules, site conditions, and urban design principles to ensure that suitable building typologies—such as duplexes, terraces, or apartments—can be successfully integrated. We assess key factors including site dimensions, orientation, access, parking, outdoor space, and streetscape interface.

This process helps determine:

• What types of dwellings can fit and function well on the site
• How yield and quality can be balanced
• Where design flexibility or planning risks may exist

Lot Testing is particularly valuable for developers exploring medium-density housing or intensification opportunities, and ensures that design quality is considered from the outset.

Construkt’s design-first approach means our clients receive clear, realistic guidance tailored to both the site and the market.
