Peter Gionfriddo Architect
Architects in Castella, Victoria
“Peter developed the plans to renovate and extend our Californian bungalow in Melbourne. He was great to work with - he listened well to our needs and created a considered and thoughtful floor plan. It was also great having the input of an interior designer who works with Peter, as this helped provide the creative input to finishes and fixtures throughout the house. I would recommend Peter to others!”
RMR Architects

“I have photographed a couple of projects by RMR Architects and have found Renuka to be a thoughtful architect who not only addresses the need of her clients but provides them with a house design that is elegant and very liveable.”
Lisa Breeze Architect

“It was great working with Lisa on our deck/roof extension. She listened to our ideas and requirements and designed a great extension that's very sympathetic to the style of our home.
Thanks Lisa!”
ONEARQ

“Hi Jorge
I love the designs offered and your professional manner. Your service with offering the best design options for our budget and style is second to none. Highly recommended.”
Dean Dyson Architects
Architects in Castella, Victoria
“We have worked with Dean Dyson on a number of projects and have found him him to be an excellent, professional and diligent architect. I would happily recommend Dean to any person who is looking for a high quality design.”
Lume Architecture
Architects in Castella, Victoria
“We hired Lume Architecture to design our "forever house" (and Lume Projects to build it).
All throughout the design process (which took a couple of months), Lynnsay provided a great combination of guidance and openness to our ideas, incorporating what worked and providing - always respectful but firm - guidance on what didn't work, which was very much appreciated. Whenever we were in danger of going down too deep into a rabbit hole, Lynnsay would bring us back and keep things moving.
The careful planning certainly paid off during the building process and beyond in everyday life, with no surprises or modifications on the way. We especially appreciate the practicality of the house and the amount and quality of natural light, which is brilliant.
All in all the design and build were much better experiences than I dared dream possible.”
Rebecca Naughtin Architect
Architects in Castella, Victoria
“Rebecca was the architect and site manager for a substantial renovation to our house in Moor Street Fitzroy. The house, which had been converted in a very haphazard fashion into 3 apartments 30-40 years previously had great bones but needed considerable and skilled renovation to return it to its former glory as a family home. The building had a long and chequered history, including as a boarding house where Weary Dunlop lived as a student. We were keen that we retained the unique character and feel of the house and made maximal use of its position, natural light and views over Fitzroy Town Hall.
Rebecca was a joy and inspiration to work with from the outset. She was innovative, rigorous, and listened carefully to our suggestions, especially around environmental impact and overall feel of the property. She was incredibly resourceful in sourcing products and ideas, which made a huge difference to the final design. For example, the suspended cupboards in the kitchen – a real winner given the relatively small size for storage – came from a 1950s design magazine. She managed the project meticulously all the way through, and worked extremely well with the builders and other contractors, who clearly respected her professionalism and skill. This was not an easy project – the house had been renovated repeatedly over the years and the legacy meant no wall was straight and no two doors the same size.
The final renovation is superb – understated but spectacular. We haven’t had a visitor who hasn’t been amazed by the house and renovation. I’ve lived in over 40 houses and flats in the last 30 years and this is undoubtedly the best house yet. This is partly due to the original structure but also because of the renovation; I’m sure a less skilled architect could easily have made a dog’s dinner of the project.
Rebecca also clearly has an aptitude and commitment to teaching and I know that she is heavily engaged in community and voluntary work in Australia and overseas.”
Evissa
Architects in Castella, Victoria
“Our 146m² home is part of what was once a factory. It was converted into townhouses about 20 years ago and when we bought it, it was due for a complete refurbishment. We spent 12 months thinking about the changes we wanted to make and gaining building approval. Then, we started to look for a construction company that could provide a well-organised construction process, with high quality workmanship, for the right price. After we had had several unsatisfactory meetings with other potential builders, one of our daughter’s friends recommended we meet with Gareth Owens.
Gareth is a builder and had just gone into partnership with architect, Elena Cazacu. Together, they have created Evissa, a company that focuses on design and construct projects. We were impressed with them from our first meeting onwards and even more so after talking with some of their previous clients. People consistently spoke of their professionalism, enthusiasm and reliability.
Watching the project begin and develop towards completion was a very happy experience. Communication was easy and honest. Elena and Gareth were always approachable, provided us with regular and detailed progress reports and dealt with any issues or concerns in a timely and professional manner.
The Evissa design and construct model was ideal for what the refurbishment we planned – two new bathrooms, a new kitchen, new flooring, windows and doors plus some reconfiguration of the internal space. Significantly, as building work evolved and revealed previously hidden possibilities, the Evissa team was quick to bring these to our attention and show us how these could contribute to our underlying goal of bringing more light into what had been a rather dark ground floor area. These changes to the design along the way added considerable value to our property and a vastly improved outcome.
There was a good continuity of trades so the project kept moving. The work site was orderly, clean and, importantly, happy. The renovation was completed on time, within budget and to a high standard.
Evissa provided the team and expertise that you always hope to find for a building project. We are pleased to have this opportunity to recommend them.

Samuel Architecture

“We did not know Andrew before engaging him and we are so thankful we did. With a challenging sloped site, Andrew's service has been absolutely gold standard. Other trades have complimented his drawings, expressing they are a 'perfect response' to the site and we are thrilled with the final set of drawings.
As first time builders, this has been a huge learning experience for us and Andrew has been incredibly patient in answering our questions as well as going above and beyond his role in providing tips and advice to ensure our project runs smoothly.
Andrew sincerely cares that his clients are happy with their final product and we have no hesitation in recommending him to design your dream home.”
R ARCHITECTURE
Architects in Castella, Victoria
“It was a pleasure working with Gaurav and his team to create an articulate and thoughtful vision that far exceeded our expectations. They were very accommodating in experimenting with the design we were after. Their efficient response to every email and calls has made it very easy to accomplish our vision. Over the course of my career, I have had the pleasure of working with many creative and thoughtful architects. R Architects has definitely distinguished themselves through their mix of creativity, logic, and very good customer service.”
