Vasse Village
“Vasse is an award-winning estate strategically situated between Busselton and Dunsborough with a new Village Centre being developed as an iconic South West Tourism destination. The site is ideally positioned opposite the busy Coles complex, the building is central to the new Vasse Village Centre.
Veens solution was to create an economical tilt-slab building with ground floor tenancies serviced by shopfronts and rear access. The first-floor tenancies are serviced by a lift.
Veens worked with BGC to keep the project on budget during the design development phase with value-engineering review practices applied at every opportunity. The building was completed in early March this year after a construction period of just 6 months.
The building already has established tenants in a Newsagency, Café, Hairdresser and Chinese Restaurant. There are further opportunities for more ground-floor shops and offices upstairs. To further enrich the retailing experience, the new Vasse Village Centre engaged artist Jack Bromell from Busselton to complete a mural depicting a giant Red-tailed black cockatoo hoping “that people will slow down for a few moments during their day and admire one of nature’s beautiful creations”.
The interaction of design and art have given this estate and Village a cultural heart that is pivotal to the visual understanding of the context of the surrounding environment of Vasse. The street-art concept should grow and further enhance the precinct as future lots are development.

To support me when my role was Supply and Contracts Officer for Conservation and Land Management South West Region, Roger Veen was recommended as an accredited Project Manager for government facilities. I am very pleased to say that since 2004, Roger and his friendly staff at Veen’s Design Drafting Service have provided me with highly professional assistance with planning, design, documentation and project superintendence right through to final fit out of several major building projects in the South West region. Roger was instrumental with the initial planning and integral to the successful completion of new buildings, additions and upgrades to existing facilities. Some of these works included major office expansions, new high rise office blocks, the creation of a new Pest Management Laboratory and an Incident Control Centre. Veen’s Design Drafting Service was exceptional by achieving the desired outcomes within budget and time constraints. We are particularly grateful to Roger, Margo and their staff for the constant personal and genuine interest they show in all projects they are involved with by providing sound, professional advice on any matters raised right through to the completion of the project. Roger and his friendly team are a pleasure to do business with. My wife and I recently engaged them to design and document the building of our new home. Jenny and I are very pleased with the house which is now in the final stages of fit out. We commend and thank Roger, Margo and staff for their attention to detail and their professional and excellent support with all the building projects we have enjoyed completing through the years with Veen’s Design Drafting Services. With confidence, we have no hesitation in recommending their new entity, Veen’s Design Group, and sincerely extend our best wishes for continuing successes in the future.
We came to Roger with scratches on a piece of paper and a lot in our heads for our proposed new Bunbury Farmers Market location. Roger was able to extract that information and create the conceptual plans. We were able to sit one on one with our designer who was very accessible & knowledgeable and we worked through the plans together. We wanted the continuation of the bullnose verandahs from the old Waldecks original building; Roger wanted to introduce a blade wall. Our synergy gave us this amazing oversized blackboard that creates the iconic street presence we were looking for yet still maintaining the market look and feel. This was a moving design that tells a story. Roger’s negotiation skill with the trades and sub consultants was invaluable and saw that we got our building erected within the tight timeline we imposed – open for Christmas 2013 trade so a 9 month build. The design continued to move through the build and Roger & his team maintained the necessary documentation, negotiation and positive attitude that got us our building that we are very proud of and is one of its kind.
We absolutely love our newly renovated heritage home. Roger was enthusiastic and understood what we were looking for, our budget & heritage guidelines. The design flows well from the old to the new and it is a dream to come home to, relax and entertain friends and family.
We have been involved with Roger and his team now for many years on various projects in and around Bunbury and in some cases on multiple occasions for the same client. As commercial property managers, we have worked together on many from the ground up projects, refurbishments and major renovations. Roger is readily available and his straight forward approach to getting the job done and delivering projects has resulting in many satisfied clients.
I have been associated with Veen’s Design since 2000 providing consultation on structural & civil engineering design. When I first met Roger, he was operating from a home office. Today Roger has a professional team working alongside him producing some great award winning designs ranging from new & renovated homes, commercial showrooms, taverns, medical centre and more. Tight timeframes are not uncommon, but our level of communication allow us to meet these deadlines. It’s a pleasure to work professionally with his practice. Veen Design’s repeat clientele is a testament to their ability to design and get the job done.
Cimeco Pty / Ltd Central Systems Pty Ltd who I have been working for the past 4 years as Manager / New projects Project Manager. In this time Cimeco Pty Ltd entered into a design and construct contract for the construction of the Esplanade Hotel in Port Hedland ( 14 Million ) we used Veen’s Design Drafting Service as the lead consultant for this project . The project was completed on time and within the cost controls of the contract, winning industry awards for the finished construction. I then transferred to Central Systems Pty Ltd and was instructed by the directors to construct a new asset facility for the company at Hope Valley ( 3 million ) because of the easy to work with thru / transparency / level of detailed design and problem solving ability that Roger and his team had produced with the Esplanade Hotel I had no hesitation in commissioning Veen’s Design Drafting Service. The project is now complete and again was delivered on time and within the cost parameters set by the directors . Central Systems have now commissioned Roger and his team to start work on a new facility upgrade in Newman. I would have no hesitation in recommending Roger and his team for any design and construct project related works.
Veen’s were great to deal with during the design and construction of our new building for the Greater Bunbury Medical Centre and I would highly recommend them

Civilcon has had a long and proud working relationship with Veen’s Design. Veen’s Design provides a high quality of work coupled with construction innovation and consistently displays this through its professional support. Roger and his team understand Civilcons work practices and set out to consistently achieve practical design solutions for the customer whilst interpreting them into practical working drawings for Civilcon projects.

Our experiences of working with Veen’s Design Group has been extremely positive. From the conception stage through to actual build we were expertly guided through the process. Veen’s Design Group worked collaboratively with us, listened to what our requirements were and came up with designs to accommodate those needs and made additional suggestions for us to consider. We really like our office, it works well, looks good and get regular compliments from visitors. We have no hesitation in recommending Veen’s Design Group.
