Atelier Bond

We engaged Atelier Bond for our recent renovation + addition project for our 1910 Victorian Villa. We wanted an addition that would suit our evolving family life which had fluid transition between the garden and outdoors, without intruding on the footprint of the existing 80's extension. We wanted natural light and a workable space for family living that had balance of keeping the character of the home whilst juxtaposed with a contemporary modern 'box'. Atelier Bond's design resulted a natural lit space that was a relatively minor footprint but had beautiful impact! It has a wonderful flow of living with essential areas, wet areas and the open living spaces all feeling 'connected' by open glass and views. Our experience with Atelier Bond has been easy and positive, clear and well managed. Greg's project administration was great and left us feeling like we could do this all over again! We're thrilled with our new space and the team that worked on it.

We would highly recommend Greg Bond as an architect. He designed an extension to our single fronted cottage and we are extremely happy with the result. Greg has a well documented process which he outlined carefully. He listened to us, incorporating our ideas into our design, so we have ended up with something unique and truly in harmony with our lifestyle. He was very professional, patient and helpful through the whole design process, making very creative suggestions and dealing with all our variations. We would like to thank Greg and his team for turning our dream into a reality that is even better than we had imagined it.

We were introduced to Greg Bond by our builder who had a long standing relationship with Atelier Bond. We worked closely with Greg to design our new family home on a hilly parcel of land in Aldgate. The brief was to design a modern contemporary barn style farm house for our family of 5. Greg listened to our needs and designed a home that is exactly what we were after. The house sits perfectly on our 10 acre block facing North West to make the most of the sweeping Aldgate Valley views. Greg was responsive to our needs and willing to listen. The small design features that are present when you have it architecturally designed are evident throughout the home with the different uses of materials and the many different views from the expansive windows. We are absolutely loving our little "farm" house and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Atelier Bond. Thanks again Greg.

Greg Bond is very approachable and we were able to work in a very collaborative way to get the design we wanted for our dream home. Now that we are actually living in the renovated house we really appreciate all the architectural details that Greg included . The design has exceeded our expectations and has given our home life a new dimension of enjoyment.

We contracted Atelier Bond to design a large renovation & extension for our existing home. Greg and his team were very patient with us, accommodating for all the design changes and variations along the way. The final outcome was pretty much exactly what we had in mind. Very happy customers. Highly recommended.

Greg was able to make our dream of extending our beloved 1950s house come true. Our wish list was long & our ideas wer flowing with Greg being able to gather all the information he needed to design us an amazing addition. Not only were we impressed with simplicity of his design but the flow & function will suit our family to many years to come. His professionalism & communication skills was outstanding & we would recommend his services to anyone. Thank you Greg!

Atelier Bond worked with my unique family to create the best experience for us possible with many, difficult constraints. Beyond the quality of the design, it was a pleasure to work with Greg and have the firm see our concept to fruition. We're happy with every inch of our forever home.

Our new home suits our lifestyle, and enhances our quality of life. Greg Bond, from Atelier Bond, helped create a home, which truly reflects us as a family. He was brilliant to work with. He listened to our ideas and hopes and he breathed architectural life into them. He allowed all of us, including the children, the opportunity to be active participants in the process. He was patient with our questions, and reassuring with responses and information. He facilitated a tender process for the builder and we were extremely satisfied with Ikon Projects. Greg’s relationship with the builder was great and the building process was amazing. We love our new home, it complements the way we live. We are extremely happy and grateful. We highly recommend Greg Bond as an architect.

We highly commend Atelier Bond. All throughout the design and building processes Atelier Bond were understanding, sympathetic to our ideas and concepts and showed intuitive intelligence in shaping these into both a truly great design and an outstanding bespoke build. By our own admission, we were very demanding clients and knew much of what we wanted. To their credit however, Atelier Bond enveloped the task and responded accordingly. The final set of architectural plans plans were expertly detailed and were a key factor in making the project less complex. As with most builds, there were numerous challenges and obstructions along the way and these were met with positive vigour and professionalism. The final outcome speaks volumes for Greg Bond's insistence and perseverance. We'd recommend Atelier Bond to anyone considering designing a high-end new build or renovation.

We asked Atelier Bond to design a major extension to our 1890s stone cottage. We wanted a contemporary family space that provided a striking contrast to the existing building. Greg was a dream to work with and immediately grasped what we wanted, and then readily enhanced our original ideas. We are thrilled with our new space and our expectations have been thoroughly exceeded. We absolutely recommend Atelier Bond as entirely professional, creative, timely and respectful architects who approached the project as though it was their own.

We engaged Atelier Bond after purchasing a dilapidated double fronted cottage that was in desperate need of a facelift and an extension. We had originally thought a simple box style extension to encompass our living and kitchen area but Greg exceeded our expectations by creating a unique extension that included a glass corridor that framed a gorgeous feature courtyard and a large entertaining area encased in steel beams. This feature is a hidden surprise from the front of the house and the one that gets the most compliments! Greg also reconfigured the layout of the existing dwelling which ensured it worked for our life as it was at the time and how our family would grow in the future. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Atelier Bond as not only were they extremely professional, they were collaborative in their approach to ensure that we were happy with the design.

It is a pleasure to be able to recommend Greg Bond of Atelier Bond to provide architectural design services. We worked closely with Greg to design our family home and recently moved in! The brief was to design an upgrade and extension to an early 1900s villa preserving the character of the original home at the same time linking it to a modern open plan extension to meet the needs of a young family. Greg was thorough in his ground work to understand our needs and wants and provided innovative suggestions to maximise space and light and minimise cost. Greg provided advice regarding the Council approval process and when we faced difficulties with Council approval (due to poor handling of the application by Council) Greg provided fantastic support to get the approval for the design we wanted. Greg was flexible, patient and responsive and, importantly, upfront and transparent in relation to fees. Greg's attention to detail and commitment to ensuring we ended up with a high quality home that meets our needs was evident from day one and continued even beyond the scope of his formal engagement as he kept a close eye on our builder! We are absolutely loving our "new" home and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Atelier Bond.
