A director-led approach to building.

Beyond Form Building Group specialises in heritage renovations / extensions and architecturally designed new homes. We take on a limited number of projects at any one time, so every client gets direct access to our director and a properly managed process from first conversation through to handover.

Tobijs Lorbergs, Director

Tobijs brings 27 years of construction experience to every project, shaped by a career-long commitment to working at the highest level of the industry. Early on, two and a half years restoring heritage buildings across London gave him a rare, hands-on education in high-end heritage renovation: how this work is properly procured, how original fabric is respected, and how craftsmanship is held to an exacting standard. That knowledge is learned on site, not in a classroom.

Returning to Melbourne, he spent several years with one of the city's leading high-end residential builders, refining the project management discipline that complex, architecturally designed homes demand. He founded Beyond Form with a single ambition: to deliver the finest architecturally designed homes in Melbourne, pairing heritage-grade craftsmanship with the process rigour of top-tier residential construction.

Tobijs has an eye for detail and an uncompromising commitment to excellence in every project he undertakes. It is the same ethos his project and site teams carry across each build. Paired with finely tuned management techniques, he is hands-on while empowering his team to work both autonomously and collaboratively.

Having refined his technical knowledge over the years, Tobijs ensures projects are completed on time, to the highest quality, and built for longevity.

How we work

Our philosophy is straightforward: the best possible outcome for our clients, every time. We are not interested in volume. We are interested in excellence.

We deliberately limit the number of projects we undertake at any one time. It's this conscientious approach that lets us build genuine rapport with our clients and their architects, while delivering projects of extraordinary quality.

  • Director-led, every time

    A purposely limited pipeline, so every client has the director's personal attention through every phase of the build.

  • A dedicated site team

    Experienced in the particular complexity of high-end architectural builds, and used to working alongside architects and consultants.

  • Full transparency

    Open communication with clients, architects and consultants from tender through to handover. No surprises, no drift.

  • A trusted trade network

    Long-standing relationships with a curated set of subcontractors and specialist trades who understand period work.

  • Real-time visibility

    Program, budget and site activity tracked in our construction management software, so you can see exactly where your project stands at any point.
