The Studio A studio of one,
by design.

Drawn by hand, drafted with care

03 — About

Chant House is a Brisbane studio designing residential homes across South East Queensland.

Every home we draw begins with the site, the light, and the family that will live there. Nothing is template. Every line earns its place.

[PLACEHOLDER — extended studio description, 3–4 sentences. Suggested: "We work directly with clients from first sketch to council-ready drawings, keeping the conversation small, direct and personal. Our work spans new builds, renovations, and additions — most often within an hour of Brisbane."]

Reuben Chant — Director and Lead Designer of Chant House

Reuben Chant.

Reuben holds a Bachelor of Design and a Master's in Architecture, and personally draws every Chant House project from first sketch through to council-ready set.

"I am passionate about solving everyday problems through meaningful design and accommodating for every unique client's needs."

[PLACEHOLDER — 2 sentences on background / approach. Suggested: "Before founding Chant House, Reuben worked across residential and small-scale commercial studios in Brisbane. He started Chant House to keep the work close, the relationships small, and the design honest."]

How We Work

Four conversations.

Site, brief, light.

[PLACEHOLDER — describe the discovery step. Suggested: "We visit the site, listen to your brief, and learn how you actually live. No sketches yet — just understanding."]

Concept & sketch.

[PLACEHOLDER — describe concept stage. Suggested: "We return with hand sketches and floor plans. We refine together until the home feels right on paper."]

Council-ready set.

[PLACEHOLDER — describe documentation. Suggested: "We produce the full drawing set required for council and your builder, coordinating with engineers and certifiers as needed."]
