Jellicoe House, Balgowlah Heights

Completed 2018

Not just a bigger garage…

This is an addition to our Beach-Hamptons styled renovation completed back in 2015. It was later sold and the new owner requested we design a 4 car garage in the front yard. We said, ok.

The existing single garage was small, a bit broken and isolated from the house. The driveway was also steep and awkward to navigate. It's rare to achieve approval like this to the front of a property, but we were lucky with the shape of the land.

Our design is built almost to the front boundary and behind a reinstated stone wall. The garage door is now double size and styled in keeping with the house. We've made it work with a flat driveway, and we've aded internal access.

"A huge beam will support the house while they excavate the front yard..."
- Bruce Lewis, Engineer

About the
Professional

Homes are our Specialty.

I'm an architect that loves homes. Homes are my passion and where we've specialised for the last 20 years in Sydney. I don't have a style, I don't need one, because it's not about me, it's all about you, your family, your dreams and your home.

I have a small professional team and access to some of the best builders in Sydney. Together we know how to get a project through DA or Complying Development or both.

Our passion is to create a home our clients love, right down to the interior fit-out, lighting, colours and materials. Bespoke and individual, stylish and classic, or just the way you want it.

We listen to what you want so that your home is designed to suit your life.

See your vision come alive early in the process with our detailed 3D design modelling. When our clients can explore their home on a computer or tablet, we find our clients can move the process forward more quickly and with greater confidence.

To better manage your budget, we built an online building cost calculator, which anyone can use. It's detailed but quick and straightforward and is a great way to start the design process and update the costing as you go.

Partial + Full Service Architects.

We offer the full range of services - pre-purchase advice, feasibility, concept design, approvals, interior & lighting design, tender documentation, source builders, site works, all on hourly rates with estimates). We do not use percentage fees, so our scope of work is as flexible as you need it to be.

You can use us for every stage of the process, or not, it's up to you. We are available as you need us.

I'm personally involved in every project. I love the challenging jobs, the problematic sites, and looking for ways to give you more than you're allowed.

We love sustainable / energy-efficient/ passive solar, design for bushfire, traditional style, Hampton's, Georgian, Contemporary, Minimalist Balinese, P&O, and simple beach house style homes.
