“We hired Sharon last year to design a contemporary 4 bed 2 bathroom home and our experience was second to none. Sharon and Mariah listened to our needs, and worked closely with our builder to design a beautiful and unique home that fit within our budget. The process was easy and stress free, and we were impressed with how Sharon kept us in the loop at all times. I would definitely recommend Sharon and her team, we are so happy with the stunning home we now have.”

Architelle Architecture & Interior Design
Architects & Building Designers in Valley Heights.
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.”

“I think what makes Jaime Brennan such a great architect is that he truly listens. He has delivered what we asked for, actually our home is more beautiful than we imagined. He knows his stuff so we got through Council quickly, which isn't typical of a strawbale development application in the Blue Mountains. The home that we have built together is beautiful, practical and comfortable. Jaime has project managed for us and we have stayed within budget. There has been a lot to handle and throughout the build Jaime has been a great communicator. He has often suggested alternatives that made our home more comfortable, practical, environmentally appropriate or more economical to build and we are so grateful for that. Jaime also helped us select a great builder. We couldn't be happier with our experience and we are really excited to move in to our home in a few weeks time.”

“In two words...Absolutely Brilliant! Luke's architectural abilities and holistic approach combine sustainable, practical concepts that look AMAZING. He is highly organised, trendy, ensures he fully comprehends the client's brief and produces designs that have an edge...a real Wow factor. We had a sloping block of land with a long list of requirements (budget, time, eco friendly, low maintenance, compliance to Vastu i.e an ancient Indian construction science considered by many as the precursor to Feng Shui, and many more). We also had some covenants and restrictions on the land. Luke delivered on all fronts by striking a beautiful balance of all elements. He also had a great network of consultants required for the plethora of reports needed for the Council Development Application and a huge help to get these organised. The best decision we've made. You can't go wrong with LVJ.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 April 2017
“I have collaborated with Lara's Design Studio on the development of the design and documentation for the construction of a Granny Flat, and found her very willing to share experience and ideas in a way that helped the project to move forward. Lara is very polite and respectful, and easy to work with, but firmly stands up for what is professional. She is researches well, and is flexible when research shows another way will achieve a suitable outcome.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars4 September 2015
“In mid 2012 we engaged Daniel to design our new family home. We were after a very modern home that would meet our growing family needs & maximize the potential water views our block of land had to offer. Daniel's first concept plan required minimal changes. His ideas & design exceeded our expectations. He was very easy to communicate with & handled the council DA lodgement process with ease. Our new home was built & completed in 2014 and the compliments from family, friends, neighbours & strangers reiterate that we made the best decision to use Daniel from Adan Creative Designs! We are loving our dream home. Tam & Brendan - Tennyson Point NSW”

How do I find the best Valley Heights, 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.

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.
