The Client Comes First

Our aim at Viking West is to Design buildings which are cost effective, beautiful and functional. Because there are numerous ways of achieving this for any one project, the client comes first every time. We take what the proposed owner of the building is imparting and transform it into a project which they can be proud of. Proud, not only to own - but also to have inspired.
At the end of the day, it is the owner/ client that must be the most satisfied with the product. Some clients have a depth of detail they would like included in their design, while others look at our previous projects and are happy for us to advise and produce something that will work based simply upon discussions regarding “what type of things they like”.


Here at Viking West Building Design we have over 18 years experience in the design of buildings. We have a proud record of producing projects that inspire pride. Our portfolio consists of all types of projects; residential, commercial, industrial. We offer premium design and drafting at very competitive rates. Please send us an email for a free consultation/ quote.

Thank You,

(Jesper Sorensen/- Business Owner and Designer/ Draftsman)

Building Design in The Tropics



Site specific/ individual Building Design is very important in Tropical regions. The Climate is hot and humid and the occupants of the structure need to be comfortable. The use of materials orientation and design layout are crucial elements which when combined effectively produce a building of real value. Darwin is located in the Tropical regions of Northern Australia. There are two distinct seasons; the wet season and the dry season. At Viking West Building Design and Drafting we pride ourselves on our ability to produce a building which looks amazing and is well suited to the climate it inhabits.

When a building is properly designed for the tropics it provides a cool and welcoming escape from the hot and often high humidity natural environment.
It is extremely important that a building is designed for air flow, cross ventilation and shading with the orientation of the building and resultant room type locations playing a key role.

We welcome the opportunity to be of assistance with any projects. (Email: jesper@vikingwest.com.au)

Building Design in Darwin



Proper design of buildings for construction in Darwin is imperative. The Climate is hot and humid and the occupants of the structure need to be comfortable. The use of materials orientation and design layout are crucial elements which when combined effectively produce a building of real value. In addition to this, Darwin is subject to cyclonic weather activity during the wet season. At Viking West Building Design and Drafting we pride ourselves on our ability to produce a design which is not only structurally cyclone rated but cost effective to build.

The effectiveness of a building’s design will impact the behavior of it future occupants. The ways in which people communicate, interact, move about and conduct their work or chores is directly related to the building playing host to the activity.  

The lifespan of a building is significant so it is important to get the design right before you begin on site. At Viking West, we not only design buildings that look amazing, but that function efficiently and improve the daily life experience of it’s occupants.

We welcome the opportunity to be of assistance with any projects. (email: jesper@vikingwest.com.au)
