Sally and Phil Cray, Bardon

I work in Real Estate and have always enjoyed renovating and project managing the build – it’s the design part that we need to outsource.

We commissioned Stephanie to complete our sketch designs and the results were fantastic. Stephanie just has an innate sense of where to position the house – knowing the direction of the prevailing winds in a suburb for example. She even guided us on which way we should be opening our windows – in our case, left to right – to catch the breeze from the North East. Her designs are incredibly environmentally sensitive, which we love.

Steph came to our place, talked with us at length about what we wanted, then she basically nailed it. What we noticed about Steph was that she listened – Architects aren’t usually known for their listening skills! She’s proactive in her advice and forthright in getting things done for us, but is willing to relinquish control when we’re ready to take over.

We couldn’t be happier with how things have turned out and we can attribute a large part of the success of our renovation to Stephanie.
