Jess was recommended to us for a small renovation in our apartment. Jess listened to what we were seeking to get out of the renovation, and worked with us to come up with a solution. When we started, we had no idea of how it would turn out or what the options could look like. Jess created a solution that was affordable, responsive to the existing building and reflective our family needs. Jess was very flexible in working with us on different options and testing approaches. She has a terrific network of suppliers and builders who collaborate well. We've now been back in our home for a year, and it's working so well for our family. Thanks for your creativity, professionalism and support.

Jessica is a really fantastic architect. She is highly skilled, down-to-earth, and great to work with. She listens very carefully and struck the perfect balance between responding to what we wanted with suggesting new ideas that enhanced our build. Jess designed our house extension, which involved more than doubling the floor space and significant reconfiguring of existing space, and we're really happy with the result. She delivered several break-through ideas for how to connect the new section to the old one that makes the house flow well and 'work'. No one else had spotted these solutions. It's so worthwhile spending money on good design. Jess made sure all the details were right - things like making sure the windows were right and placed to maximize light, privacy and proportions. We road-tested several architects and also engaged a design-and-construction company over the course of several years in our quest to design our house extension. None of them listened to what we wanted the way Jess did. We recommended Jess very highly.

I walked past a house that had been recently renovated and loved it so I knocked on the door and asked the owners who their architect was. It was Jess Matson and I called her the next day to ask if she could help me with my renovation.
Jess completely understood what I wanted from my renovation and how I wanted to live in my home. She helped to translate my vision into a design that I could afford and made many suggestions to enhance the design that are features that I absolutely love today.
I had many questions and was very particular. Jess was excellent to work with, always available, always delivered on time and would work with me to resolve any problems we encountered.
Jess also recommended an excellent builder who she often works with and who understands her designs. The builder was also excellent and it was a very smooth build.

Based on a recommendation, we engaged Jess to help us design a new-build modern terrace. Jess was really great to work with, highly knowledgeable and brought lots of great ideas. Jess listened to what we wanted and was extremely collaborative, such that we used Jess to provide project management support during the build. Jess worked very hard to ensure the builder understood and delivered our vision. The end result is a beautiful, functional modern house, that maximises the use of space, uses a mix of modern and recycled materials, is very sympathetic to the streetscape and a house we really love to live in.

Jess was easy to work with, professional and thorough. She provided economical and stylish designs based on our rough ideas. Jess recommended a great builder and worked with him to deliver a renovation with a real wow factor.

We were so happy with Jess and how she managed to transform our pokey galley kitchen and dining area into a lovely light-filled space that we now spend so much more time in.
Jess was so flexible around our time and work commitments, budget and desig ideas and so helpful with all the peripheral jobs that need to be done on a renovation like this (Council, insurances etc.). We were relaxed about everything because we trusted her to keep us informed, guided and on top of everything.
She bent over backwards to accommodate our foibles - ‘no we want to keep that xyz’ - against her recommendations and put us on to a great builder and cettifier. She made it so easy for us and we love the result (and so does everyone who sees it).

Jess did an amazing job on our difficult to access semi-detached property in Marrickville. Jess was very generous in the time that she spent going through different options with us and was always accomodating of the changes that we wanted to make. Her knowledge of the council approval process was superb and I'm sure saved us a lot of pain. Her vision has provided us with a beautiful light filled 'forever' house that we absolutely love being in. She was able to provide us with good contacts for a builder and joiner. Our builder meticulously followed Jess's drawings and Jess was always available to speak to him for guidance when required making the renovation process smooth sailing. We would definitely recommend Jess's service to others.

Jessica was referred to me through a builder and as first time renovators we didn’t know what to expect. Jessica took the time to listen to how we lived, what needed to change and what we wanted. The first design Jessica came back with we loved and only made some minor tweaks.
The process was smooth and we felt informed along the way. We love the end result. We would have no hesitation in recommending Jessica to anyone.

Our home is of double brick construction with some art deco features on a difficult, narrow, rearward sloping block with diverse elements. Existing additions to the back were poorly designed and well past their prime therefore much in need of replacement.
Jess has transformed the rear with a wonderful contemporary design that captures the winter light that we needed, plus forms a strong connection between the house and back garden with pool. We are delighted with the results, and appreciated her professionalism in our dealings with her. Jess's responses to our queries were always prompt and her guidance during the planning stages enabled us to maximise the benefits of a functional, attractive extension. We strongly recommend her as an innovative architect, mindful of environmentally sustainable design and very creative with the use of difficult spaces.

We started our renovation with another architect that didn't work out for various reasons. Jessica Matson Architecture was referred to us and we're thankful for the introduction.
Based on our experience we wouldn't hesitate to recommend Jessica Matson Architecture to anyone looking to renovate their home.
Here are some of the reasons for our 5 star rating:
>> Excellent attention to detail e.g. creating a wonderful skylight feature to bring in more natural light. The solution also provided easy access for cleaning and consideration for blocking out peak summer sun if needed (things we never knew we needed but they now make life easier and more comfortable).
>> Easy to work with e.g. always responding in a timely and considered manner. We can't emphasise enough how much we appreciated this honest and clear communication.
>> Nothing was too hard e.g. creating solutions for a hidden clothes line and hidden pet toilet area. These things were important to us and the ideas presented were amazing considering the space we had to work within.
>> Reducing unnecessary complexity e.g. simplifying our roof line which reduced the risk of water issues.
>> Always professional and able to work co-operatively with others e.g. helping us to navigate conversations and processes to keep the project moving along. Direct communication with our builder during the build stage.
After Jessica Matson Architecture redesigned our plans and made drastic improvements, we finally had the confidence to proceed with a major renovation on our house.

Jess' innovative design of the renovation of our family home has had a positive impact on our lifestyle and we couldn't be happier with the final product.
She used her extensive experience and expertise to overcome the constraints of our terrace home, redesigning the ground floor in order to maximise space and enable our desire for open plan living.
Jess has a personable and patient nature, allowing us to progress at our own pace, and answering all of our questions. She was mindful of our budget, needs and wants when making suggestions. Her experience in previously dealing with our Council also allowed her to create a design that had a very high likelihood of approval.
Her vision has resulted in a product that will accomodate the needs of our family well into the future.
We highly recommend Jessica Matson Architecture.

I can highly recommend Jessica Matson Architecture. Jess showed a great understanding of what we were after from the very beginning. Our renovation ran into some problems half way through and Jess provided some valuable and cost effective advice. She was always professional, approachable and easy to work with. We couldn't been happier with the end results.
