Building Design Services in Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

“On recommendation of a friend we engaged Renee from Studio56 Building Design to bring our dream home to life. I walked in with a specific idea of what we wanted but no idea how to make it happen. Renee was able to pull together our ideas and needs and present us with the most beautiful home design. We have ended up with a home so much more than what I could have imagined when we started this journey.”

“Build Professional renovated our kitchen, living space and two bathrooms. The whole process ran smoothly due to pretty tight scheduling by Matthew and his team, and overall was a relatively low stress experience. Matthew is very personable and flexible, Anna his designer is creative, talented and lovely! The team of tradies and contractors were skilled and efficient. The quality of their work is high, with deadlines mostly being met on time. This is a very streamlined and professional outfit, who I would recommend to others considering a renovation project.”

“Prior to engaging the services of Plan It Green, our outdoor deck/entertaining area was looking tired and dated. We wanted to resolve this problem and have a deck that was more spacious, functional, aesthetically pleasing and utilised energy efficient building products. It was also important that it flowed from the existing home thus creating a seamless and incorporative feel.There were no real concerns before commencing the project aside from relocating a few established plants. The outcome from the completed project has exceeded our expectations. The new deck has enhanced greatly our outdoor living no matter what season it may be. It has contributed to our lifestyle as it offers another functional space that can be enjoyed on a daily basis. Angela Knock of Plan It Green understood completely all aspects of the brief and our collaboration with her was nothing short of perfect. Her engagement was professional and thorough, she met time frames and sourced appropriate building products and offered sound reasoning and knowledge throughout. We would highly recommend her to anyone wishing to undertake a building project. The end result is that we have a beautiful, functional extension to our everyday living that has undoubtedly added value to our home but, more importantly, to our lives.”

“We had the pleasure of working with Hugh Gordon Architect for a new house we are building. In the brief we told Hugh everything and anything we wanted to include, expecting Hugh to tell us that some of what we wanted wasn't possible. In fact, Hugh responded with "anything is possible!" He and his team were great to work with.”

“We found Michael to be excellent. He was easy to work with and challenged us on our design. He was able to draw out why we had chosen certain elements and then proposed alternatives that enhanced many components of our build. We found him very generous with his outstanding knowledge, down to earth and very obliging. What a nice guy. Thank you Michael. Update Oct 2020 - Have contacted Michael this month to help with some DA issues that were not to do with his design or plans. He has helped us find others who can help with our issue immediately. Just above and beyond. WOW how I have really appreciate this - Peter.”

“I have worked with Tony Pike and his team on countless projects in my capacity as sales manager for a building company. I can't speak highly enough of the level of service and quality of work produced over the years.”

“Allan Spira Architects designed us a beautiful airy eco-friendly four bedroom contemporary cottage in Canberra and helped us manage construction over a 12 month period with a limited budget. We also utilised the company's interior design expertise. We were grateful for the warm and flexible approach to design and in depth local knowledge - it helped produce the bespoke responsible home we dreamed about.”

“We worked with Adam Hobill on the design of a significant extension to our home, which included the addition of a second level and the modernisation of the street-facing facade. Adam was a pleasure to work with and provided us with a design that met our needs while adding interest to the home. He pushed us towards new ideas in a few areas, which we benefitted from. He also helped us select a builder and then worked with them in a collaborative manner throughout the build, helping keep the right balance between cost and outcome. Overall we are extremely happy with the end result. As an added benefit the extension won the ACT HIA Award for renovations $200-350k and also the overall Renovation/Addition of the Year award in 2012! We highly recommend Adam Hobill Design. Pictures of the end result are detailed on the builder's website at: http://griffinconstructions.com.au/portfolio/red-hill-carnegie-crescent/”

“Ian and the team were polite, patient, professional and easy to deal with from our first meeting. The custom built cocktail and music unit reflects a very high degree of skill from the design process, carpentry and installation. Our new wood box is excellent and has transformed an out dated planter box into a functional yet elegant design feature. The white bookshelves maximise the space available and we are very happy with the result. Ian was always prepared to listen to our feedback and address any issues and we highly recommend Valkyrie Interiors.”

“Highly recommend this firm - fast, intuitive, creative and good communication! We've worked with the team at Black Line Building Design on a few projects now, most recently a custom design on a tricky block. We are very happy with the result, especially how it fits the block perfectly and also allows beautiful winter sun into the living spaces. We have been so happy with their work, we have just engaged them again to create our dream home which will be a knock down rebuild in an inner Canberra suburb.”
