“We have used Ed for both of our renovations and have found him to be a great architect. For our first project we used Ed for both the design and the project management of a small renovation. We loved the design which dragged a 1970s monstrosity of a house (think lots of mission brown and wood panelling) right into the 21st Century. Tweaks that Ed made to layout just made the house 'work'. We were exceedingly happy with the result. Ed and his team worked tirelessly behind the scenes so that while we had the usual decisions to make, any of those problems that inevitably turn up on the site were solved before they hit our radar. Our second project was based in Sydney (see Ed's project titled 'Springfield' ) and although we spoke with some local architects we didn't get the same comfortable feeling as we had with Ed. Our second renovation was a major undertaking on a heritage listed house where there had been multiple renovations done in the past and little coherence. The floorplan had small spaces left over that had no practical use and the house was very tired. We extended but only by a small amount but again by rationalising the floorplan we have ended up with a much more usable space. The end result is a gorgeous home. This time I was the project manager but Ed and his team remained on call through-out for whenever my builder or I had any queries. What I love about Ed is that we have achieved a great balance between gorgeous design and practicality. The space looks fab but it is also easy to live in and we love that!”

“Sam from Goldby Architects is a fantastic architect who understood our design brief from our first consultation.

“Render Art / visualizations atelier worked with Roger Borland on a few projects over the past few years. We delivered architectural visualisations for him. Roger was very involved in the process to ensure every effort is made to reach a mutually agreed goal. He communicates always with kindness, which leads to a positive, smooth and professional process. Render Art recommends Canny Borland Architects for your architectural project. We can’t wait to work with them again in the near future.”

“Sergio designed and directed the construction project of what was to be the country house of my family in Cali, Colombia. In less than two months the structures and first floor of the house was already up (and of course the swimming pool!). The house was bamboo structured, with big open windows facing all directions of the property. Our time with Sergio was excellent, he is charming, reliable and has many incredible ideas for the design to be trend-forward at the same time as using unconventional materials.”

“Luisa is very thoughtful and found us a solution which really suited our needs but was very economical. She was reliable and really efficient and we recommend her to all our friends on the surf coast.”

“We chose Anne as our Archicentre architect after seeing her work on Houzz. We made the right choice! Not only did she agree to work with us after other architects had said what we wanted to achieve (on our budget) was impossible, but she was able to give us exactly what we needed. She went above and beyond in helping us problem-solve a renovation of a very difficult floorplan on a tiny budget. She came to our house and sat down with us, then sent us multiple sketches and revisions, even updating her own ideas once new options occurred to her. The solution she came up with is wonderful and solved all our concerns, and we were able to manage it on our tight budget. We are almost finished with the renovation now and the amount of natural light, space, and functionality Anne's floorplan has given us is truly beautiful. We can't recommend her highly enough.”

“I can highly recommend Matthew. He went above and beyond. He took the time to talk me through every detail and to answer all of my questions. He is really easy to engage with and I can’t thank him enough.”

“I had a great experience with Northbourne Architecture and Design when I went to them seeking advise with the possibilities of Northbourne building my dream home. The information and care that I received, made me feel very comfortable in taking my project further with them. Building a house is a massive commitment and many people can get scared about the unknown, but I felt this team were the perfect match for me. I would highly recommend Northbourne Archiecture and Design to everyone who requires the perfect home, you will be taken care of all the way through the process. I am extremely happy with the design and outcome of the project.”

“Best Architect I have ever worked with. Great sense of design, their own timeless style along with highly responsive customer service. 10/10”
