LivingLot

I can’t recommend LivingLot highly enough. Neche managed every step of the design and construction process. She was always professional, reliable, proactive and generous with her time. She worked collaboratively with us and always put our needs first in the design of our home. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome.

I have now been working with Neche for 8 months as we have progressed from planning to building. We are now almost finished our renovation and it would never have happened without Neche. Throughout the entire process Neche has been fantastic and I cannot recommend her more highly. She has helped me make some very difficult decisions, has given me the courage to go outside the box and been there as we have navigated the complex world of council, certifier and builder requirements. Please don't hesitate to contact Neche as you will find her professional, friendly, organised and knowledgeable.

My wife and I were looking for someone to help us design our family home extension and to manage the council approval process. Two politically charged and challenging requests. Our brief was very specific, our budget was conservative and we needed someone to bring practical thinking and strong communication skills to our project. Neche did all of this plus much more. Throughout the entire design and council application process, Neche worked hard to listen to our needs, extract our ideas and facilitate the best possible outcome in a professional and timely manner. Her knowledge of how modern family’s function, combined with what our local Council required when planning our renovation, was the perfect blend that helped us to help achieve our goals. Neche’s business acumen and customer service is second to none and we look forward to working with her again on our next project.

Neche from Living Lot has been exceptional, engaging her design service and expertise has been the best decision we’ve made with our bathroom and laundry renovation. The process was seamless and enjoyable and we are thrilled with the outcome. Thank you Neche.

We engaged Neche Page to help us design and make decisions about renovating 2 outdoor spaces. One being the front entrance of our home including a deck and side entrance, the second outdoor living space included a deck and pool. We were impressed from our first meeting with Neche’s professionalism, transparency and level of communication. She explained each stage of the design process including fees and expected time frames. Neche was thorough in her seeking information from us about how we use the space and what we were trying to achieve. After the first meeting, we felt we had direction and were confident in Neche’s approach. We were all on the same page. During the design phase, Neche imparted her in-depth knowledge of the latest products for deck and feature walls, orientation of sun and the impact on functionality along with pool compliance issues. One of our top priorities in this brief was no or limited maintenance. Neche researched and sourced the products, cross checking specifications with manufacturers and other specialists in the industry for their experiences with the product before recommending her choices to us. Her collaboration and communication (verbally and written) promoted a common understanding and went a long way to reducing issues when renovating. We then contracted Neche during the build to assist with on-going design decisions and trouble shooting on site, which invariably happens when renovating an older style house. Decisions need to be made on the spot to reduce delays and Neche was readily available to discuss either over the phone or on site with the builders and us. Her ability to translate builders or other contractors speak and put it in “layman’s terms” was a critical aspect for our understanding when making decisions. Neche continued to help us in the final stages to choose accessories including lighting, pots and outdoor furniture, which contributed to the overall product. We love our new spaces. Neche listened to our needs and wants but also introduced some design elements which have taken our ideas from ordinary to WOW!

Living Lot has provided us with a very pleasing and stress free outcome. Neche has been a practical, honest and highly skilled person to work with. Our project was not straightforward, but she was able to manage us through the process with ease. We have been rewarded with a wonderful outcome, resulting in the "street" commenting on our place with great accolades.

My experience working with Neche to design the extension to my house was excellent. I found her very approachable and a fantastic listener. At all stages of the design and certification process Neche kept me informed and involved. Subsequent to the design being certified a number of builders I have approached have commented on the detail and expertise of the plans. I would not hesitate to recommend Neche. Thanks Neche for everything.

Neche was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout our whole renovation process. She was creative, detailed and solution driven, plus she handled all the annoying paper work for council approvals. The end result is amazing and exactly like the plans she had originally presented. We couldn't be happier with the reno and are looking forward to our Phase 2 project with her renovating upstairs.

Aalta worked with Neche from LivingLot supplying a retractable roof for her client's outdoor area in Mosman. Neche's approach is friendly and professional. She has great design ideas and worked well with us in finding the best solution for the client's outdoor space. We would be delighted to work on more projects with her in the future. Looking forward to getting some great pics of the project!

We loved working with Neche from LivingLot. We had a tough brief with lots of limiting factors and she nailed it. She was professional, considered, brought excellent ideas and advice to the design process plus her knowledge of building design and structures has prepared us really well for the building works ahead.

We loved working with Neche on our recent bathroom renovation. She brought great ideas to the project, whilst still being atuned to our preferences.

We are so happy with the plans that Neche drafted for our apartment renovation. Neche is professional, knowledgeable, and so easy to work with. She helped us to refine the ideas we had for our renovation, and was able to draft fabulous plans & concept drawings in a very tight timeframe. Thanks so much for all your help, Neche!
