Space Planning Services in Mornington Peninsula, Victoria

“We chose Anne as our Archicentre architect after seeing her work on Houzz. We made the right choice! Not only did she agree to work with us after other architects had said what we wanted to achieve (on our budget) was impossible, but she was able to give us exactly what we needed. She went above and beyond in helping us problem-solve a renovation of a very difficult floorplan on a tiny budget. She came to our house and sat down with us, then sent us multiple sketches and revisions, even updating her own ideas once new options occurred to her. The solution she came up with is wonderful and solved all our concerns, and we were able to manage it on our tight budget. We are almost finished with the renovation now and the amount of natural light, space, and functionality Anne's floorplan has given us is truly beautiful. We can't recommend her highly enough.”

“Jo redesigned my 13 year old daughters bedroom with a brief of "no longer a kids bedroom" with a small budget to work with she achieved an amazing result that my daughter and we love. Great job! So happy that my daughter has a space she loves and suits her needs and was achieved within the budget we set.”

“Tenille consulted with us in planning our ensuite bathroom renovation. The new layout she designed is a winner, and something we just hadn't thought of! Moving the vanity unit and toilet onto a different wall really opens the room up, making it feel roomier and more elegant. We were very grateful for Tenille's patient handling of our enquiry, for her ready understanding of our needs, and pleasant way of suggesting solutions. We can recommend her for her expertise and friendly manner, which made us feel comfortable working with her. Thank you Tenille!”

“Sarah is friendly and listened to my needs. Her vision was magnivicent and I am happy with what my space has become. The additions to my lounge dining room, which were suggested, has lifted the room greatly. I highly recommend Provoke for injecting life into your home.”

“We contacted Emmy after meeting with other designers who weren’t quite what we were looking for. From our first meeting we were comfortable that Emmy was listening to us and had plenty of ideas to offer. We had a house that hadn’t been touched since it was built in the early 80s. It was in need of a major update, including some changes to internal walls to make more efficient use of space. We had a layout sketch and a list of ideas, but that was about it. After consultation, Emmy came to us with a presentation which included detailed plans, room concepts, finish and accessory ideas and material samples. This gave our project a tangible end-result which excited us. Emmy arranged a builder and tradesmen who were easy to work with and did a great job. She kept us regularly updated about the project, including the schedule and the work behind the scenes. Unforseen problems are inevitable in a project of this scale, and the few that arose were dealt with quickly and without fuss. The whole project took around 12 months as we chose to live in the house while the work went on around us. Thanks to the friendly and understanding builder together with Emmy’s enthusiastic encouragement, the time spent “living in a building site” seemed to pass quickly. The end result exceeded our expectations… the house is liveable, comfortable and a delight to look at. It is a year since the project was completed, and still every day I look around the house and smile. I have no hesitation in recommending Emmy for a major house update. John - Mitcham”

“Sophie enjoys a love of decorating and has wonderful ideas on how to bring a room to life, using colour and texture. These design solutions have transformed the interior of my house, both aesthetically and functionally, while working to a budget. I was very excited to bring Sophie's ideas to life after she left and now have some very beautiful spaces in my home.”

“Giuliana is wonderfully creative, extremely knowledgable, very professional, intuitive about design and has a great eye for detail. She had brilliant ideas to suit our space and budget.”

“We wanted to present our home in the best way possible for sale in Malvern East. That's when our real estate agent Hocking Stuart put us in touch with Edwina Harris. From the first meeting, she established an excellent understanding and vision of how we wanted to present our home and lots of practical advice on what existing furnishings could be used, and how to declutter our home so that buyers could envision the spaces and create an open look that still allowed the personality of our home to shine through. The attention to detail, together with a 'now' feeling for the home, brought with it style, a display home standard presentation, and took the hassle out of what is one of a key element you want in selling your home. A home stylist that came out, met our brief and needs perfectly and we were super happy with the feedback and auction results.”

“We wanted a garden studio that could also provide extra accommodation when necessary; we have a seaside location which draws family and friends at holiday time. Our house is a traditional 50's stone place so we wanted something to blend in but to also add some contemporary pizzazz. Jane listened carefully to our needs and not so definite brief but came up with a very interesting, practical design which we really liked. She also linked this space design wise to an enclosed courtyard and pergola; unifying the north facing and sheltered back yard. This was probably the only real specification that we provided, that all would function as a whole with scope to add through planting of coastal and indigenous plant species. Jane's creative flair certainly has achieved this, she was always responsive and efficiently came up with practical solutions when we had questions. It has been easy to work with her because of her willingness to focus on the task at each step of the way; keeping us on track in our meanderings! The builders have been impressed with her attention to design detail.”

“We asked Fuchsia Interior to help assist design a number of spaces in our house and we're very happy with the outcome. Fuchsia interior works together with a number of furniture makers and wholesalers who delivered very high quality furniture pieces that will last us a lifetime. Fuchsia Interior worked together with us to pick the items and solutions we liked. Anne-Marie from Fuchsia Interior stayed in regular contact and visited us regularly to discuss next steps or make decisions. The end result is something that we couldn't have done ourselves. Everything goes really well together and it suits the space.”
