We recently engaged Nathan to support us through the renovation of our house and the construction of a studio in the backyard. We were extremely happy with overall outcome and the manner in which Nathan worked with us throughout the build. Nathan's vision for the studio has exceeded what we thought would have been possible as it nestles beautifully into our block and serves as a great space to work from and host guests. One of the things that impressed us most was Nathan's commitment to making sure the whole package of work came together aesthetically and functionally. We always felt Nathan was happy to help us make good decisions about even the most simple of design elements. We are very thankful for Nathan's work and have recommended him to friends.
