We've recently had the pleasure of working with Quin to design our family home in Safety Beach. From the initial meeting we were able to start imagining his creative vision - and knew he’d deliver something beyond our expectations. We can't wait to bring this Quin Wyatt design to life in 2021!
Upon meeting Quin, you will instantly feel the enthusiasm he has for his work. He has the powerful combination of strong knowledge for construction techniques, mixed with his passion for design - this sets him apart from any architect I’ve worked with in my 20 years in the building industry.
Thanks Quin - we love your work!

We engaged Quin to help design our beach house. Quin was friendly, responsive and always willing to assist. He understood the design limitations of the site and produced a great design that was accepted by the Council without amendment. Highly recommended.

Quin has worked closely with our family to design a beautiful beach house for us to enjoy on the Mornington Peninsula. From the initial brief, through to the final building approval, Quin has supported us with solutions and ideas to fit with our vision and budget. His passion for the use of natural ventilation, light and good insulation has produced a design which I believe will serve our family perfectly for many years.
We are looking forward to the completion of the works, so that we may enjoy this lovely house which he has designed for us.

We were looking for a designer who was prepared to take on the redesign of our 'quirky' old A frame house and Quin was an enthusiastic supporter from the start.
Quin listened to our ideas, turned them into better ideas and translated them so that they would meet the many regulations that impact on major renovations. He is prompt and meets deadlines as well as consistently helping us to stay on track when navigating the 'system'.

We engaged Quin to design some changes to our holiday home in Portsea, and were delighted with the process and the result. Quin was able to support our ideas but brought in practical and stylish design principles that suited the area and the house, especially regarding the materials and architectural feel of the original build. Would recommend Quin's services as he has helped to transform our 20 year old home to a contemporary style.

We engaged Quin to design new plans for a large renovation of our existing house. I have to say that we couldn't have been happier with our choice. Quins' professionalism, speed of turnaround and expertise has been exemplary. His knowledge of the local council building regulations and overlays means that our plans passed through our local council and permits issued with only one tiny minor alteration. (the colour pallet of our fence) He has listened to our requirements, is collaborative, knowledgeable and offers such great advice when thinking and looking at designs and materials for the home. We can't wait to bring his vision to fruition with our build beginning early next year. I would have no hesitation in recommending Quin to anybody looking for a great building designer.

We engaged Quin to design our new home. We wanted a large, sustainable, bespoke design that suited our lives. Quin listened well, gave us pragmatic advice, and created a design that we loved. His work was always timely, and we really appreciated his flexible and collaborative approach. As first time owner builders, he answered all of our questions, and guided us through the design and planning process, which was really reassuring. We highly recommend Quin.

We were super impressed with Quin. he was very easy to get along with a great listener and also has the customers best interests at heart. We are grateful to come across quin and his services. as being a first-time homeowner builder the process can be overwhelming but his prompt responses and directional advice have made the process quite the opposite.

AMAZING! Quin designed our new house in St Andrews Beach, from the minute he answered my call, Quin was keen and wanted to meet us and take on our project without any delay, Quin knew exactly what we wanted, he listened to our vision, he explained every detail, he spent time with us, and he had our drawings done within 3 weeks, the attention to detail was mind blowing, our design was perfect! thanks to Quins building and design experience, he designed an amazing state of the art home that captured ocean views and surrounding landscape, every aspect of the design was creative and clever but at the same time practical, Quin knew the council restrictions to avoid any delays and rejections, our block is in a flame zone, with vegetation and design overlays, so this was not an easy task, Quin nailed it!. Our plans have been approved with the Council in record time. Quin's passion for our new home design has been impeccable, the best part was the latest design software enabling us to log in on our phone or computer and view the drawings and 3D images anytime, not only did this safe us time, we could see exactly what the house was going to look like once finished, we were updated and included in the whole design process, undeniably the best decision we made hiring Quin and he is an absolutely amazing human being as well.

Quin has been really good to work with. We wanted to design a substantial extension to an existing historic house. It needed to be sympathetic, yet fitting well in the environment with good livability and function. After several iterations we finally got a result that we are overjoyed with. Quin came up with some really good ideas and brought it all together very well.

This is the second project Quin has assisted me with. I have found Quin to be fantastic to work with, he has excellent design ideas, is practical, works to a budget and responds to the numerous changes very promptly. Quin is passionate about his work and will be on site at short notice to discuss design options when you need. We are very satisifed with the servcies provided by Quin.

Quin was very easy to work with and turned the job around much quicker than we expected. He brought a lot of great ideas to the table which we had not previously considered and came up with a plan that is both functional and beautiful. My wife and I had different "none negotiables" for the design which have all been incorporated into the plans. As a result, the build will be more than we had budgeted but will give us the space we need for our growing family. The 3D renderings gave us a great idea of what the finished house will look like and really helped to visualise the news spaces.
Quin has also been a big help in walking us through the process and letting us know who we need to contact and when for all the various surveys and reports required to help prepare for the building permit application. We are now looking forward to getting work underway so we can enjoy the home Quin has designed for us.

From start to finish Quin never let us down. His creative designs, passion and concepts for our project really helped breathe life into what would have been just a standard extension . He was able to reflect his building/design knowledge and help produce not only a practical space but a beautiful one to enjoy for many years to come! Quin takes everything into consideration when putting together his concepts Light source, types of building materials and overall build to your budget, If we build again we will be using Quin!

Quin is a highly knowledgeable and experienced architect, with a great balanced approach to his design. We engaged Quin to come up with a concept for our existing home, that we thought we would demolish and start again. However Quin saw the benefits and savings associated with keeping the existing, and working with what we had, but still prioritising the overall amenity of the design.
He is very sustainably minded, which is why we engaged Quin. He was also very prompt in delivering each stage, from concept drawings through to working drawings.
We actually didn’t elect to change any details from his first concept, which certainly shows how happy we were

Quin was the second designer I chose after things had not worked out with my initial designer and builder during the design and quotation stage. As a single, middle aged woman I was left feeling less than impressed with the building industry and also, quite despondent, so felt the need to move on hoping to have a more positive experience from my next choice, but not convinced I would!
I found Quin online, rather than by recommendation and felt I was taking a bit of a punt, but I loved the way his website read. It spoke to me! After my initial conversation and meeting with Quin and his subsequent plans, I knew I had found the right person.
As I also suffer from chemical sensitivities, it was great that Quin is someone knowledgable in this field so that was an added bonus.
Quin is highly professional, respectful and creative and I loved the design ideas he came up with. I think Quin is also really perceptive, because when I received the first plan and 3D photos, it was evident he had really understood me and what I was looking for in my home.
Quin is totally reliable. I feel he "under promises and over delivers", so I was always so pleased that he achieved the updates to plans before I was expecting him to. His pricing is also very reasonable.
Although my project was quite small and humble compared to others I knew he had worked on, I felt Quin treated both me and my project seriously and with the same interest he would have given larger projects.
I am happy to give Quin the highest recommendation as a great professional to work with, on one of the most important projects of your life; your home.

We engaged Quin Wyatt in March 2016 to develop plans for a major extension to a period house in Mornington. The design needed to be sympathetic to the original house but functional to suits todays lifestyle. Quin met this brief and provided a design which suited our requirements and was also accepted by the Council heritage architect. Quin was very receptive to our feedback and able to quickly turnaround any changes required. As Quin uses a 3D design package it is possible to see 3D representations of the design. Importantly Quin provided a fixed price quote for each stage of the design process from Town Planning through to Building Permit. We subsequently engaged Quin to develop drawings for our new garage and would not hesitate in recommending Quin for your project.

We recently worked with Quin Wyatt on the design of our large deck and roof over the deck on our beachouse at Blairgowrie. Quin developed detailed drawings and 3D images quickly which were excellent, he was also willing to make some changes to the plans for a modest cost and further changes at the request of Nepean Building permits. His fees are very reasonable and his ongoing advice is really helpful. We would happily recommend Quin to anyone and will probably use him again in the future for other projects.

We are yet to commence our build however greatly appreciated Quin's expertise to enable us end up with a fantastic design for our extension. The result was a lot different to what we had in our minds initially but we were able to work through to a design that exceeded our expectations. Quin provided a great balance between being able to listen to and consider our ideas and to include his own ideas and expertise. Deadlines and budgets were applied as agreed.

It has been a pleasure to work with Quin Wyatt on the design of our new house at Rye. We have appreciated his practical approach which comes from a deep background in the building trades combined with a distinctive talent for warm and functional design. Quin draws a lot of design inspiration from the diversity of environments on the Mornington Peninsula through which he incorporates a rich blend of natural materials and tones suited to family and holiday living. A standout for us working with Quin has been his focus on maintaining close communications and a real desire to understand our vision and needs. We have no hesitation to recommend Quin Wyatt Building Designers to anyone looking for a quality design handled in a truly professional way.
Kind regards,

Quin has been efficient and informative as he worked with us on finalising out design for the renovation proposed. He has a real grasp on the technicalities of conducting the build, great ideas on the finial design, a good grasp of the culture and requirements of the local town planners and a 'can do' attitude towards working with the various trades involved. We are very happy with quin's services and skills.

After being very confused about whether or not to go for an architect or a building designer, and how to even start the process of building, we found Quin Wyatt. We had narrowed it down to 3 firms, however Quin Wyatt was the only one prepared to sit and listen to our needs, show us previous work and then gauge what we needed. His passion and enthusiasm for our project was wonderful...it wasn't just another job for him, he was in for the journey with us.
