About us
More than anything, we believe in the power of collaboration in architectural practice. So much so, we’ve built a business around it. We support top tier architectural firms, corporate businesses and building professionals to make sure projects are meticulously documented and delivered to the highest standards.
Alternative delivery options for your next architectural project
Founded by seasoned industry professional Greg Blanch in 2003, DETAIL 3 is driven by a desire to be the best in the field, offer excellent service and mitigate project risk. Unlike traditional firms, our business is different, split into three main services: CONSULT, HIRE and DRAW. This allows us to be flexible in our approach with clients and craft bespoke methodologies, ones that both fit the project and innovate on service delivery.
Powered by a team of industry experts who are passionate about what they do, we track trends and are always iterating to improve, building new skills and knowledge to bring to every project. We’ve been lucky enough to be involved in many award-winning projects over the years and that’s why we’re in high demand with architecture firms, developers and builders alike.
Based in a heritage warehouse building in the vibrant heart of Collingwood, we’re proud to offer consultation, specialised staff on secondment and thorough, detail-oriented documentation support to each corner of the industry. For us, it’s not just about the end product, it’s about the positive experience we create for everyone we encounter.
WHAT WE VALUE
Knowledge
With substantial project experience, we share our expertise and knowledge via our services: CONSULT, HIRE and DRAW. Our in-depth industry knowledge is second-to-none and spans the breadth of services, including documentation, contracts, specifications, construction phase, detailing and more.
Excellence
We foster an environment of technical excellence. Matched with a positive attitude, it’s what makes our team so unique and approachable. Excellence, to us, means delivering on our expertise for each and every project.
Collaboration
We’re well-known in the industry as a reliable business partner. Always ready to jump in and support projects when you need it most, collaboration is where we truly thrive. We understand the work you do and offer discretion at every stage.
INDUSTRY CONNECTIONS
Beyond our services and project-based work, we’re also embedded in the Australian architecture industry. Our Founder Greg is deeply invested in nurturing upcoming talent via mentoring and is involved with a number of national organisations and initiatives, including:
- Guest lecturing at Design Matters National and the Australia Institute of Architects
- Member of the board of the Building Regulations Advisory Committee (BRAC), and
- Former member of Program Advisory Committee for RMIT Master of Design Innovation and Technology.
GIVING BACK
Aside from our involvement in Australia’s architectural industry, we proudly support two key organisations undertaking important work globally. We’re proud supporters of Plan International, a charity for girls’ equality, and Médecines Sans Frontiers (Doctors Without Borders), an international medical humanitarian organisation.
