  • Daniel made the design process of our new house both easy and enjoyable. His modern ideas and eye for detail were very much appreciated. Along with being really personable, we found that he actually listened to our wishes and incorporated them into his design. Our builder, even with his 30 years’ experience, is amazed at the quality of his plans and has had many similar comments from his subcontractors. All in all, we wouldn't hesitate to recommend Daniel and his company to anyone wishing to design a new house.

  • My husband and I engaged Daniel to assist us in designing and making an existing home "our dream home". His service is efficient, creative and he understood our dilemma to find the fine balance of the merging of an old and new build. We have been thrilled with Daniel and we look forward to completing the project together so he can happily use our home as a showcase of what's achievable.

  • Daniel is an amazing designer who, despite our difficult site, came up with the best design solution for us. We are just about to start building and cannot wait to see the final product. Daniel worked with us and 'understood' exactly what we wanted. He was easy to get along with and very prompt with any changes. He also helped us with our town planning and building permits. I would not hesitate at all in recommending Daniel to anyone who is looking to design and build their project. Thank you Daniel, we really appreciate your work and help thoughout this process.

  • Daniel designed us a gorgeous modern home that we now live in and love. He listened to us and paid close attention to our brief, something that two Melbourne based Architects had failed to do before our builder found Daniel.
