Living Room Design Services in Lonsdale, South Australia

“We went to Helen to design and project manage our home renovation and extension after seeing the fabulous job Helen did on the house of a friend of ours. Our friends also spoke highly of Helen's professionalism and design knowledge and practice and said they had thoroughly enjoyed the whole project, including the actual build, which was one of the only times I've ever heard that said about a renovation! We are about to start the actual renovation/extension in the next month and to date, we've had the same experience as our friends. Helen has been a pleasure to work with and we have absolute faith in her as a person and as an architect. She listens to our input whilst maintaining an expert's direction over the brief, guiding and advising and arguing her point as and when she needs. Another real plus has been that Helen is also a qualified interior designer so she's designed and drawn up all our internal structures/fittings e.g. the kitchen design. It feels like the project has had an ease and consistency of vision because of that. We are very much looking forward to the next stage of the building process. We actually put this all off for years as we'd heard so many negative stories about 'building'. We only finally took the plunge once we'd found Helen and I can honestly say I am not concerned about it since we have Helen project managing.”

“I worked with Grant on a tricky garage conversion, Grant's knowledge of local planning restrictions made the design stage a breeze. Would highly recommend Grant.”

“James was very professional, punctual, informative and helpful. He removed a lot of stress and complication by dealing with council for approvals throughout the design phase of our extension. We knew mostly what we wanted to do but James was able to provide some valuable insights and ideas for us. His quote as an architect was very competitive among other quotes we received from draftsmen. The builder we engaged for our project commented that our plans were some of the best he had seen for an extension - which sounds like a pretty good compliment to me. We would recommend James to anyone looking for an architect.”

“Brett is a breath of fresh air... He is a wonderful and wise person, who I found to be mindful, emotionally aware, and an excellent listener. His business has previously designed my office space that all visitors commented on favourably, and I look forward to the day that Brett designs and project manages our dream (climate responsive) house right at the beach. You will find that Brett is working with you and for you, every step along the way.”

“Julian Rutt did a fantastic job on our house; lots of attention to detail, including many unexpected little things that bring us delight every day. The house has lots of natural light but is easy to keep cool in summer as well as warm in winter. It reflects our personality but is not a monument, perfect for entertaining or equally a quiet night in, a refuge after a busy day. It’s integrated beautifully with the garden with nicely framed views from every window. We love living here, and our neighbours in the street all love the house too”

“Fantastic company. So easy to work with. Couldn't be happier with the very transparent process. On time and in budget.”
