    Light House Architecture & Science
    Architects in Calwell, Australian Capital Territory
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars27 February 2015
    “Jigsaw is the reason we have such a liveable home. Having lived in many houses, we had clear ideas of what we wanted - to build an energy efficient, light-filled home that would work with us as a family. We wanted clever use of space and storage, responsible use of materials and a beautiful nurturing environment to live in. Jigsaw had the expertise to maintain a creative approach while problem-solving the many limitations of a modern build on a Heritage listed block. The combined skills of the team provided us with a very positive building experience. We continue to recommended Jigsaw, and the novelty of our new home is likely to never wear off! We are very content and proud of our home that adapts to our needs and enables us to live a comfortable family life.”

    “Allan Spira Architects designed us a beautiful airy eco-friendly four bedroom contemporary cottage in Canberra and helped us manage construction over a 12 month period with a limited budget. We also utilised the company's interior design expertise. We were grateful for the warm and flexible approach to design and in depth local knowledge - it helped produce the bespoke responsible home we dreamed about.”

    “I recently engaged Maria Filardo to work on the interiors of my lounge, kitchen, robe, and study, and the results are fabulous! Her creativity and attention to detail have transformed these spaces into something truly special. I highly recommend Maria for anyone looking to bring a fresh and beautiful look to their home. Thank you, Maria, for your outstanding work!”
    Collins Pennington Architects
    Architects in Calwell, Australian Capital Territory
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 February 2015
    “We were lucky enough to work with Mark Bruce from Collins Caddaye on a new build in Yarralumla, Canberra. They were a joy to work with from start to finish. They were clear in what they wanted, provided clear communication and updates, made well informed and clear decisions which made working with them very enjoyable. On top of that, the house that they designed was amazingly beautiful and we have only heard good things about their company. Chadwick Designs looks forward to working along side Collins Caddaye again soon for all window furnishings and external products.”
    studio203
    Architects in Calwell, Australian Capital Territory
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 July 2019
    “We worked with Studio 203 as the builder for the Lilyfield house. Throughout the build they were extremely focused and thorough on all aspects of detailing of the project including drawings, modelling, budgeting and finished product. No aspect was forgotten about and it was a very rounded approach to the design and philosophy of architecture in todays modern environment. They were very hands on in their approach and it really shows in the end result. If you want a team that really understand's architecture and how it has the ability to really transform spaces and ways of life there is no better team. Their smaller team also helps as they are across everything and things are not lost/misinterpreted which is very valuable. We would love the opportunity to work with their team on another project!”
    Philip Leeson Architects
    Architects in Calwell, Australian Capital Territory
    Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars20 April 2016
    “After shopping around for a suitable architect we settled on Philip Leeson Architects. Over several months we have been working with an architect (Sarah Truscott) from this company and couldn't be happier with how the process has gone so far (the house plans are currently being costed). Philip and Sarah have taken the time to really listen and understand our requirements (they even visited our current home to see how we live and what does and doesn't work for us in this house). Our brief was for a single level, solar passive (low-cost to run) family home for 5 that can also accommodate one of our three sons (who has special needs) as he grows into an adult - down the track we want the ability to section off part of the house for our son and a carer. Also, due to the care requirements for our son we are not a family that is able to go on vacations or travel, so in that respect our home is even more important than it would be for other families, as we can't take a break from it. Our home needs to cater to each family member's interests - for my husband that is a BIG garage (Philip and Sarah only really understood this when they saw all that our current garage contains!), for me it is a study/craft room and for my eldest child it is a separate space for LEGO. During the planning stage the value of engaging an architect has become very obvious - the puzzle of how to design a house to meet a variety of needs is not one that we could ever have come up with ourselves.”

    A well-chosen architect can design a home that is specifically tailored to your family's lifestyle. Highly competent and professionally-trained designers, many architects in Calwell, Australian Capital Territory also use sustainable design principles to maximise the site and materials used, so your home uses less energy and saves you money in the long term.

    If your renovation is more than a simple benchtop replacement or roof re-tiling job, then it may be time to find an architect in Calwell, Australian Capital Territory who can manage your project from start to finish. Depending on the architecture firm you hire, the scope can span from planning sustainable design into your renovations, to selecting furniture and even interior finishes.

    How do I find the right architect for my home design project?


    An architect is often the first person you hire for your project. Before taking steps to find an architect in Calwell, Australian Capital Territory, ask yourself what you want to achieve from your renovation or home construction. Do you want to improve the liveability and sustainability of your home, or simply expand? What style of architecture do you prefer? Once you have established your motivation, research architects that have completed similar house designs in your Calwell locale and within a comparable budget to yours.

    Undergoing renovations, house extensions or building a new home entirely can be stressful. For this reason, it’s important that you and your chosen architect get along and share the same values, especially if you require an architect to help you refine your brief. To establish this rapport, you may need to meet several times with the architects on your shortlist before making a final decision on who you hire. The relationship you have with your architect is very personal, and will involve discussions of your habits, hobbies and tastes, so you want to ensure you have picked someone you feel comfortable in sharing this information with.

    Most importantly, you need to trust that your architect will manage your home improvement or house design within budget, while working with site constraints, and coordinating the relationships of all parties involved in the project.

    Ideally, your Calwell, Australian Capital Territory architect will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. Your architect may be needed to select and hire Australian Capital Territory subcontractors (e.g. builders, engineers and landscape architects) just as they may need to negotiate contracts with stakeholders. A good client-architect relationship will ensure they are your biggest advocate along the way during construction.

    Finally, remember that the most well-known or established architect may not provide the right architectural services for your needs. It all comes down to the individual project.
