Would you love an architecturally designed home, but you’re not sure how to afford it?
Architopia makes architecture affordable with its off-the-plan designs.
Learn more here about what Architopia is, and what is included when you purchase a design from them.
This is Part 2 of my conversation with Robert Duffield, from Architopia. (Listen to Part 1 here).
Hello! This is Episode 249, and in it, I’m continuing my conversation with Robert Duffield, who is a co-founder of Architopia.
If you haven’t tuned into the last episode, and heard part 1 of this conversation, I’d encourage you to do so now – because then this one will make a lot more sense! You can find it by heading to:
We start Part 2 of my conversation with Rob by discussing what you actually get in the drawing packages when you purchase online from Architopia.

Now, let’s dive in!
Architopia was founded by Architect Robert Duffield, Interior Designer Sophie Lindblom-Taylor, and Building Designer, Leon Morton.
They’re all about making architecture more affordable, and reducing the obstacles between you, and a fantastic home that’s designed well, where your drawings can be purchased online, and you can get onto site faster as well.
Robert – one third of Architopia – is a Victorian registered Architect. Robert is passionate about empowering more Australians with the knowledge and confidence needed to build better homes. And Architopia is definitely seeking to achieve that for those who purchase their designs.
We start Part 2 of my conversation with Rob by discussing what you actually get in the drawing packages when you purchase online from Architopia.
In this episode, I’m chatting with Robert – one third of Architopia. Rob is a Victorian registered Architect. He’s worked in Melbourne, Amsterdam and London; accumulating a range of beneficial experiences that have helped develop a considerate and fun approach to problem solving and spatial solutions.
A well-rounded set of skills that span both domains of design and hands-on construction, has cultivated a desire to create a more transparent, accessible, and collaborative approach to residential Architecture and building in Australia.
Robert is passionate about empowering more Australians with the knowledge and confidence needed to build better homes.
There are so many ways to design and build a new home – and this may be a way you hadn’t considered an option, or knew existed.
Architopia’s focus on sustainable, efficient design and layouts is fantastic, and if you’re someone who wants a great home, but isn’t sure you could navigate a custom design process – or you don’t want to spend that time – then this may be perfect for you.
In this episode, I ask Rob questions such as:
- The drawing packages: what do people get when they decide they want to purchase a package (and do you help them decide best fit)?
- What design features and devices are used to achieve the compact footprint and spacious feel?
- What are the indicative costs to build, and how are your customers establishing this for themselves?
- Do you find you’re having ‘how does this compare’ conversations, or are people coming to Architopia because they can’t find sustainable, smaller homes in the volume builder market and want something different (but don’t want the full architect experience)?
