Fortitude Valley, Queensland Architects

24March,2013

“Having known Charles professionally for 4 years, we recently requested the use of his stunningly designed property for a professional photo shoot for our upcoming advertisment in the lastest Queensland Homes Magazine. I am proud to be an associate and to recommend Charles and CDI Architects to prospective clients looking for superb and divine designs.”

Focus Architecture

Fortitude Valley, Queensland Architects

13January,2016

“I thoroughly recommend Evan and his team at Focus Architecture. Evan took the time to listen to our needs and delivered a product which reflected our budgetary and functional requirements. During the course of our project our vision changed a number of times. Evan responded with flexibility and patience and worked closely with us to achieve our outcomes. Evan provides a very personal service and he will take the time to listen to you and provide feedback and problem solving without being patronising. We are already planning for Evan to design our next project which will be our forever home in the Lockyer Valley.”

Tania J Coward ARCHITECT

Fortitude Valley, Queensland Architects

5June,2014

“We bought a near-derelict house built in 1888 at Auchenflower and entrusted the renovation and rejuvenation to Tania. We could not have been more happy with her understanding and treatment of the project. The finished project was a masterful re-invigoration of a classic Queenslander. Her use of space, versatility and breezeways really transformed the house into a beautiful and comfortable family home. Thank you, Tania!”

Maytree Studios

Fortitude Valley, Queensland Architects

18June,2015

“We had Rebecca from May Tree Studios discuss our existing and rather boring home with a view to give it more street appeal without spending a fortune and to make some alterations to the interior. We were more than delighted with the concept drawings provided following our discussion. We have now completed the work and the home is transformed to unrecognisable (one visitor drove right past). Recently a regular passer-by commented that our home is now the best in the street - it was easily the least attractive in our street previously. Together with the concept drawings, Rebecca also provided details of colours that are modern and very attractive, yet blend well with existing original features. I did not think that would be possible. We are a building company so we see a lot of home designs. We considered that the proposal from Rebecca was practical and cost effective, as well as being highly professional. We highly recommend her to you.”

“When Nina and I needed some ideas and plans for a large multi purpose farm shed Kelvin was recommended by a family member due to his thorough nature and attention to detail. His ideas were very logical and practical and we both were very satisfied with his care and understanding , we also found him very accessible via phone and email and his responses were timely and professional We would certainly use and or recommend Kelvin again.”

Dion Seminara Architecture

Fortitude Valley, Queensland Architects

25May,2015

“After coming to the conclusion that we needed an outdoor entertainment area, we contacted Dion and others to discuss our options. All the other people offered to come to our house to provide a free quote and consultation. Dion was the only one that charged for this service. After initially baulking at the price, we reluctantly decided to proceed with his consultation fee. We were quite nervous in paying this amount because we did not know what value Dion would provide. Even on the day that Dion was to arrive, we still had doubts whether this was the right thing to do - but we decided to have an open mind. Dion not only arrived on time but he actually talked to us and wanted to get a feel for what we did in the different parts of the house. Yes his brief was that we needed an outdoor entertainment area, but within 20 minutes of Dion's consultation, he was challenging us on that notion. His challenging questions and realistic answers shed new light on what we thought we wanted. The easy path that Dion could have taken was to agree with what we wanted. If we went down that path, Dion would have been happy but after living with the outdoor entertainment area, we would not have been. Dion instead really listened to our needs and presented ideas that went to the heart of what we wanted. His ideas were fantastic and the consultation fee was, in our eyes, a small price compared to the value that he provided. If you have any doubts on the value of this fee for service, don't. You will be amazed on what he delivers. By the way, the other people who supplied the free quotes spent as little time as they could with us and did not provide any ideas on the solution that we actually wanted.”

TONIC Design

Fortitude Valley, Queensland Architects

9March,2015

“We are currently working with Matt and the guys at TONIC Design to design and develop plans for our renovation/extension. We have found the team to be open, friendly and respectful. (An additional bonus is that they have a cafe onsite at the office!) Matt's design thus far has been able to incorporate the big ideas, while he has conscientiously considered our budget constraints. We look forward to moving ahead into the coming phases of our renovation... (Sorry - no photos at this stage!)”

We used Alexandra's company to design a Solar usb charge point for a local council project driven by an NGO in Tweed Heads. We thought we knew what we wanted but Alexandra exceeded our expectations with the results. Scott Black Diamond Energy www.diamondenergy.com.au”

Fortitude Valley, Queensland Architects

“We had an ambitious vision and modest budget for our character workers cottage situated on a small lot in a flood zone. Matt Kennedy was able to guide us through the issues and find creative, aesthetic solutions to every curve-ball the site presented and ultimately design a family home that we love.”

Civic Steel Homes

Fortitude Valley, Queensland Architects

17November,2015

“The Civic Steel Homes team made the whole process of building our dream home on our block of land (with a difficult sandstone substrate) so easy and straightforward. Neither my husband nor I had built a new house before, and we were guided through the necessary steps and assisted in making all the decisions by the friendly, experienced and professional team, including a sales manager, in-house architect, colour consultant, accounts manager and a project manager all working in harmony to ensure our wishes were fulfilled. The results did justice to the magnificent views from our property, as you can see from the photos. Civic Steel Homes followed up after handover to make sure we were perfectly satisfied with every detail.”

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 Fortitude Valley, Queensland 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 Fortitude Valley, Queensland 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 Fortitude Valley, Queensland, 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 Fortitude Valley 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 Fortitude Valley, Queensland 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 Queensland 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.
