“I have used Catherine twice now. Three years ago for a full renovation of a cottage, and this year to renovate the laundry and kitchen in an Art Deco apartment. Catherine is easy to work with, has great ideas and I have found her recommendations for trades people very reliable. She is pragmatic, and has brought both projects in on time and on budget.”

Architelle Architecture & Interior Design
Architects & Building Designers in Emu Plains.
Average rating: 4 out of 5 stars5 March 2016
“We engaged Margaret Skilbeck to help us with a major renovation and extension of our family home in Warrawee. Architelle was recommended by a local builder who gave us the names of a few architects that work in the Area. He told me Margeret Skilbeck was conversant with Kuringai council regulations and her turnaround time in submitting work was also good. We were very happy with the design and final result. One of the best things we did was engage Margeret to supervise the building project which included weekly site meetings. it took away a lot of the stress involved in building work. She gave us very good advise along the way and helped in choosing materials and fittings. She was professional, capable, efficient and very pleasant and we have no hesitation in recommending Her. She was able to work well with the builders & coordinate the other professionals. Her fees were reasonable and good value.”

Ivo Enrico Poluzzi Architect Studio
Architects & Building Designers in Emu Plains.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 November 2014
“We had the good fortune to meet Enrico when we were considering the purchase of our flat in Modena, Italy. He inspected the site along with us and gave us sound advice on making the most of the space available (getting 2 more rooms from a too-large formal dining room space). This convinced us to make an offer on the flat. We talked to him briefly about our likes and dislikes in terms of decor. He went ahead and drew up a furniture plan and talked to us about furnishings. What struck me after that meeting was how well he'd read and understood us. His vision for our flat was right on the button. I would highly recommend his work as an architect and interior designer to anybody. His past works are pure class and the epitome of European elegance! Had he not moved to Sydney, we'd have certainly asked him to see our project through to completion.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 June 2018
“Kitty was a pleasure to work and I would definitely recommend her to others.. She was very professional, prompt with feedback and very knowledgeable about all the project processes so the design and approval felt very stress free. She really listened to our brief/requirements and worked hard to deliver a design that worked for our budget. We are really happy with our final project.”

It is often said when you're building a house, you’re building a dream. An architect or master of building design can make your dream house a reality.

How do I find the best Emu Plains, NSW, AU architect for my home design or renovation project?


When building or renovating your home, you don't simply hire an architect or building designer — you build a relationship with them. Be sure you chose a home architect who will be involved in all phases of the design process, from the initial concept to the completed construction. Architecture is an incredibly technical profession and one where getting things wrong can literally put lives at risk, so ensure you hire a professional with a valid license or an architectural firm to maintain high quality and standards. Your next consideration will be architectural style. Some residential architects specialise in designing traditional homes or farmhouses, others in designing modern replicas of traditional homes. While a few have a knack for imagining bolder, more futuristic architectural design in Emu Plains, NSW, AU that incorporates the latest technology.

Once you have frozen on the architect or building designer, chat through your goals, projected budget, scope of work, schedule and any other specific requirements you might have. Ask them to walk you through the process, including the number of architectural design consultations, site visits and what they will be delivering and when, e.g. feasibility study, a technical drawing, tender package and/or planning application drawings. Also, get a sense of whether they are a good listener, collaborator, and problem solver. Finally, be sure to find out what the architect needs from you,deeds, rights of way, deposit, staged payments and so on.

How much does hiring an architect in Emu Plains, NSW, AU cost?


Home construction and renovation often have a preset budget and hence it is important to understand how much architects charge. While there is no set payment structure, independent architects may charge differently from architectural firms. Architects sometimes choose to calculate their fees on the basis of a per square foot rate. In rare cases, especially with smaller projects, Emu Plains, NSW, AU architects may choose to ask their clients for a fixed fee.
