Architect Fin & Co
Architects in Duranbah, New South Wales

Zaher Architects
Architects in Duranbah, New South Wales
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars21 October 2016
“We hired Sam at the beginning of 2009 to do a partial renovation of an old farm house in northern New South Wales. He was very professional and when any problems arose always had a solution which was helpful when we had not renovated before. There were complexities with moving walls and re-jigging ceiling roses etc but nothing was too much trouble. We all worked with an excellent building team and together made our renovation work both inside and outside with inground tanks and a swimming pool. A very positive experience.”
Paul Uhlmann Architects
Architects in Duranbah, New South Wales
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars8 November 2014
“We hired Paul Uhlmann Architects to design our new home based in the Scenic Rim. We wanted a house that would make the most of the stunning views from our property and one that also incorporated passive solar design principles to reduce our energy consumption. We found Paul and his team easy to deal with and we are very happy with the overall design.”
Architecture of Spirit
Architects in Duranbah, New South Wales
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 December 2018
“"I contracted Architecture of Spirit to design my additions and renovations to our small home in Sydney’s inner west without increasing the existing building’s ‘footprint’ due to floor space regulations. It involved excavating a basement and making much better use of existing space. I found Greg O’ Donnell to have a calm and friendly manner that belies his experience, professionalism and attention to detail. He deals clearly and calmly with the many small and large issues that arise during such a project. He was always accessible and generous with his time for consultation and advice which we often did by video chat and screen sharing. He was happy to bounce around then work through alternative ideas, a process by which we arrived at what I believe was the optimal design, and all within our budget. We are very happy with his service and with the transformation of our home.””

Create Architecture

“A great Architect who from the first minute listened to our ideas and wishes and was able to translate that information into exactly what we wanted. Scott's attention to our future home without creating what is already out there using new ideas was evident in our floor plan and external look of our house. A pleasure to work with.”

Lightwave International
Architects in Duranbah, New South Wales
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars25 February 2016
“Today, and every day, when you approach from a distance you can feel the welcome of your home’s familiar, warm glow. Everything about it reflects your personality. Your love, life, eccentricities and interests accompany you on your journey through the front door and meanderings around the rooms. The colours, ambience, sounds and familiar aromas are yours and each day your loved ones rejoice in the charm and beauty of their most intimate environment. When you are away, you long to return and, when you leave it is with considerable regret. In ten or twenty years the perfection of its design will remain as part of your spirit, enhancing the person that is you. You will be forever grateful that you chose the architect whose long hours of consultation guided you through the emergence of your most important, lifelong investment. Award winning architect Mark Walsh, principal of Lightwave, created a design that was specifically for me. Thank you, Mark”

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 Duranbah, New South Wales 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 Duranbah, New South Wales 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 Duranbah, New South Wales, 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 Duranbah 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 Duranbah, New South Wales 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 New South Wales 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.
