Robeson Architects

We have worked with Robeson Architects for a few years now and cannot speak more highly of Simone and her team. As a builder it is refreshing to have clear direction and to be a part of innovative design. Robeson Architects have made such a positive impact in the Perth urban landscape. I would highly recommended.

Before started on our house we wanted to talk to someone about our design ideas thinking we would look for an architect once we got a better idea of what we wanted. We were lucky to have Simone recommended to us through a mutual acquaintance so we were able to run some ideas past her, not really thinking at the time about who our architect would be. It quickly became apparent that she would be the ideal person to work on our project. She was very supportive of our ideas of a clean, modern design based on ecologically friendly principles and we decided to hire her as our architect and project manager. On her advise, we deliberately took our time getting the design and government approvals right so it was over a year between our first meeting and the start of the build. This worked out well as we had most of the local and state government approvals processes completed and had plenty of time to select a builder and fixtures and tiles etc. The design she came up with gave us the unique and modern house we were looking for and she was able to incorporate energy efficiency principles such as solar passive heating and cooling without compromising in looks. She helped make the build process relatively painless and was able to guide us through any difficulties that came up. She worked closely with the builder and made sure that our design was achieved close to the budget we wanted and in a reasonable time frame. We have been in the house for five months now and are really happy with the space, look and overall feel of the place.

Simone did the interior architecture and design for our new home in Coolbinia. Simone’s approach to the project was nothing short of exceptional. She struck the perfect balance between offering her advice, recommendations and expertise with listening, adapting and bringing to life our feedback. Her implicit sense of style made the process both enjoyable and inspiring. We now live in a home that we love to look at and we love to live in, thanks to Simone.

Simone made the seemingly daunting and consuming task of creating a new home an absolute pleasure! From our first meeting, we had a great deal of confidence in her skills as an innovative architect, as well as her genuine interest in the personal needs and requirements of clients. She took the necessary time to understand what we would like to achieve in our new home and did not limit options. Our expectations were met the entire way through the process and Simone always went the extra mile in helping us to achieve all desired outcomes. We will definitely opt to work with Simone on our next project, and have already recommended her to friends, colleagues and family.

After failing to get through council in three years, we needed a fresh approach and design to get past their concerns. We got that and much more. Great design with real street appeal and a build that was completed within a month of the hoped for date. This was largely due to the architects hand holding right through the process, and planning for fittings selections etc in a timely manner. Most importantly no budget shocks at all.

Simone listened to our brief and has delivered a home that is more than we could have wished for and inside of our proposed budget. Internally there is nothing "bland" about her design and every room has a special detail and smart design to it creating symmetry throughout. Externally our garden is very special to us and the new extension fits in perfectly with our existing garden style and design. We feel the new extension draws us closer to our outdoor areas with the use of selected timber cladding, colours and windows that allow the morning sun to warm our main living area. We have not had to lose any of our beloved eucalyptus trees and garden beds due to smart design which has saved us in any landscaping costs. We wanted a mix of a modern extension but to keep the existing 1950's style to the front house and Simone has delivered this. With a few internal alterations to the front property the two areas flow together perfectly. Our builder has had no issue with any of the design and has been pleased to be involved in a build with something different about it. Highly recommend Simone full stop.

Simone was able to design us a beautiful family home. With an unusual triangle shaped block to work with and a long ‘wish list’ of want we wanted, she had a difficult task ahead of her. Our favourite part of the home is our open plan living area she was able to create, which maximised our views across a nature reserve whilst still ensuring we had privacy. Such a down to earth and creative person to work with!

Simone designed our office fit out. She was a pleasure to work with, functional with style. Very professional approach, and also considered costs which most architects fail to do.

Simone has designed our new home, as first timers we have had a great experience with her guiding us through this process. Simone has been extremely information, collaborative and engaging at all times. Her creative ability, eye for detail and expertise have us super excited to see this project through to completion. I would have no hesitation in recommending to Simone to anyone looking to create a space with integrity, style and quality.

My wife and I initially made enquiries with a number of architects/builders, however, we chose to work with Simone from Robeson Architects as she actually took the time to listen to our requirements, rather than forcing her ideas onto us. We have really enjoyed the design process and would highly recommend Robeson Architects. When looking to design/build our next home, we will once again be speaking to Simone.

I hired this firm after seeing the exelent job she had done on the project at the corner if Vincent & Wiiliam st North Perth. I was very impressed with the Service and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone seeking Personal Architectural involvement with any project Regards Mick Brazier
