Building or renovating a home is one of the largest financial and emotional investments most people will ever make. A good architect helps ensure that investment delivers lasting value.

More than just creating beautiful spaces, an architect considers how every part of your home works together, from the overall layout and relationship to the site, through to natural light, interior detailing and the way your family lives. We coordinate the many consultants involved, guide you through planning and approvals, administer building contracts and help ensure your home is delivered as it was intended.

The architectural profession is highly regulated, requiring extensive university education, professional experience and registration with the Architects Board of Western Australia. This provides our clients with the confidence that they are working with a qualified professional who is bound by legislation, a code of conduct and continuing professional development requirements.

Choosing the right architect is not just about finding someone whose work you admire. It's about finding someone whose approach aligns with the way you think. Someone who you feel comfortable discussing your family life with and working closely with for many months to achieve real results.

Your architect should specialise in your project type and have sufficient experience to give you confidence they will manage things with excellence throughout the entire process.

If you're looking for a highly personalised experience and a home that's carefully tailored to the way you live, we'd love to hear from you.

Our work focuses on high-quality private residential projects throughout Perth.

We have particular expertise in character and heritage homes, where we enjoy finding creative ways to preserve a home's history while adapting it for modern family living.

We also design bespoke contemporary homes, with every project responding to its site, context and the people who will live there.

We believe exceptional homes are created through close collaboration rather than high project volumes.

As a husband-and-wife practice, we intentionally remain small so every client works directly with us throughout the entire project. We don't hand projects to junior staff or disappear once construction begins.

Limiting the number of commissions we accept allows us to give every project the time, care and attention it deserves, while building genuine relationships with the people we work with.

Absolutely! The interior & exterior architecture of your home are inseparable and should be considered together from the very beginning.

We prepare detailed interior drawings for kitchens, bathrooms, laundries and bespoke cabinetry, together with carefully considered selections for materials, finishes, colours, fixtures, fittings and lighting.

This integrated approach creates a home that feel fully resolved, and thoughtfully detailed.

You will be working with one or both directors from first sketch to final handover and we will guide you through each stage of the process, helping you make informed decisions without becoming overwhelmed.

Designing a home is a collaborative process, and our role is to listen carefully, challenge ideas where appropriate and create a home that's uniquely yours.

Many of our clients choose to engage us through the construction phase to help ensure their project is delivered as intended.

During construction we act as your independent architect, administering the building contract, responding to site queries, reviewing the quality of work and helping resolve issues as they arise.

Remaining involved throughout construction helps protect the design intent and provides our clients with confidence and peace of mind.

Every project is different, so our fees are tailored to the scope and complexity of your home rather than calculated as a percentage of construction cost.

We believe in honest communication with our clients and provide fixed-fee proposals with clearly defined deliverables at every stage.

We believe good architecture is an investment that delivers value long after construction is complete.

Construction costs vary depending on size, complexity, site conditions, construction methods, and the level of finish.

During our initial conversation, we'll discuss your aspirations and your budget to determine whether they are aligned. If necessary, we'll provide honest advice about where adjustments may be needed before design begins.

Having realistic expectations from the outset helps create a smoother, more enjoyable design process.

Yes.

Finding the right builder is just as important as finding the right architect. Rather than recommending builders, we make introductions to experienced builders whose workmanship, approach and project experience we believe may be well suited to your home.

We generally favour early builder involvement. A collaborative approach allows current market pricing to inform design decisions as they evolve, helping to create a home that is both beautifully resolved and achievable within your budget.

Importantly, we remain completely independent and do not receive commissions or referral fees from builders or suppliers. 

The first step is to send us an email with your property address, a brief outline of your project, your approximate budget and your ideal timeframe.

If we feel we're likely to be a good fit for one another, we'll arrange an initial phone conversation to discuss your project in more detail and respond to any queries you have about our process.

Following this we will schedule a face-to-face consultation at your home to better understand your property, your lifestyle and what you're hoping to achieve. This meeting gives us both the opportunity to determine whether we're the right fit to work together.

If we decide to move forward, we'll prepare a tailored fee proposal outlining the recommended scope of services and the next steps.
