Energy-Efficient Homes Services in Ultimo, New South Wales

“There are many reasons why we are glad we chose CplusC over other architects. Firstly, their natural and balanced aesthetic strongly appeals to us and we are genuinely pleased and impressed with the quality of the construction of our home. Secondly, and as importantly, CplusC are both designers and builders. This has the advantage of avoiding disagreements between architects and builders, which meant a less difficult building process and minimises the unexpected costs that inevitably arise. Thirdly, CplusC are environmentally clever designers and builders: they design to minimise wasted construction materials; and their design and the materials they used means our ongoing expenses are reduced (we only need to turn the heater on for three or so weeks in the year, and don't use air conditioning, instead enjoying cross-breezes). CplusC have built us a beautiful home that our children will grow up in and we are happy to recommend them.”

“We would highly recommend Jeremy and his team to anyone looking to renovate their home. Jeremy is incredibly knowledgeable and always willing to help and answer any questions and goes above and beyond. His high standards also ensure you get a quality finish. Our DA has just been approved and our council commented that they really like the designs and paperwork Lifestyle Homes submitted for us because they’re extremely detailed, clear and there were no issues with the plans. Thanks Jeremy!”

“I had a pleasure to photograph Earlwood and Stanmore houses for NSStudio. The projects were stunning modern extensions of the heritage homes. Both had an incredible sense of space and light. Coming from interior design background i did admire Natalie’s creativity and contemporary design especially incorporating large windows and skylights. Moreover, Natalie is very professional and so lovely to work with.”

“Gillian is a very approachable designer who really takes the time to learn what your style likes and dislikes are. She provides names and contacts of reliable tradies and firms, and is involved in the process all the way. It was Gillian who introduced me to the fabulous Houzz site, and together we built up a style file for the lounge area and the bathroom and powder room. She was able to liaise with the plumber so that we could understand what he meant with all the technical specs, and went around with him to make sure we were getting what we wanted when he came to measure and quote. Although we have not yet started the bathroom renovation, we have updated our kitchen dining area and it looks fantastic. I thoroughly recommend her services.”

“As a builder that has constructed several projects for ZSA, I can highly recommend their architectural services. Their designs and working drawings are always thoroughly though out making the building process efficient and effective. ZSA have a firm understanding of the cost of building which sets them apart from the rest. They have excellent spacial awareness and knowledge of construction which is critical to a good design. Every client that I have shared with ZSA (more than 10) would highly recommend their services.”

“Ben helped produced photo montage images for my house and proposed driveway at Dellview Street, Tamarama. Not only is Ben a talented designer he is also very approachable and easy to work with. The quality of his work helped us visualise the floor plans and driveway landscape. I can not look at a floor plan now without wanting to see Ben's photo montage perspective to bring the plan to life.”

“I worked with Christian Grennan of Kreis Grennan when redeveloping two Torrens title dwellings in Glebe. It was a tight site with a dilapidated cottage and the neighbor’s didn’t want any more dwellings in the area. Kreis Grennan organized a meeting with the neighbors at a local pub prior to council submission and presented the concept design. It was a very positive experience, where everyone could ask questions and get honest answers. Not always answers they wanted to hear but answers that were considered. The meeting made the whole process run smoothly including the development application and subdivision. Construction drawings were produced with enormous attention to detail so my team knew what was required. The end result is fantastic. I would be happy to recommend Kreis Grennan to anyone looking for a quality architect”

“We have recently completed yet another project with Catherine - one of many we have worked on with her over the last 15+ years. Catherine has exceptional skill at designing the most beautiful yet practical homes. Catherine is always professional, reliable and trustworthy. We look forward to continuing our relationship with her and would recommend Catherine for any project.”

“I had a great experience with Bayview design group. Justin Loe took the time to understand how we would use the property and designed a house that is both functional and beautiful. Justin added value at every stage of the process and I couldn't be happier with the end result.”

“Adam and Ben from As You See IT were recommended to us and we were certainly glad we didn't look any further. We were totally renovating our Manly unit, one that we only planned to move into on a short term basis. As we didn't require specific interior design such as furniture, paintings etc, for this job, we required Adam and Ben to completely redesign the kitchen and bathroom, advise on window coverings, choose paint colours and install flooring. We gave them free range to provide all the above. We particularly love the bathroom - besides looking fabulous, it is functional and easy to clean (most important!). Adam and Ben project-managed our job and this was certainly money well spent. They both put in many hours which would have been well over their estimate, all in good humour. We would certainly recommend As You See It and hope to use their ideas in the future, Jo & Barry.”
