Featured Reviews for Architects in Sunshine Coast, QLD, AU

Points North Design & Drafting
Architects in Sunshine Coast, QLD, AU
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 June 2019
“We got in touch with Anthony James to discuss the renovation of our Queenslander and we were immediately impressed with his professionality and customer orientated attitude. He gave us valuable inputs even before we had committed ourselves to working with him. Throughout the design process he listened to us and transformed our wishes into the most wonderful design, adding many features that we would never have thought of ourselves. We could not have wished for a more inspired and more highly qualified designer, he is at the top of his profession and we give him our heartfelt thanks and recommend him highly!”

Brindley Architects

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars15 June 2020
“Matt designed the most beautiful home for us in the Northern Beaches - we have been raising our family in this home now for over ten years - and we all love it. The space, light, design and function that Matt created in this home has had a massive positive impact on our wellbeing - it just feels lovely to be in. We all love hanging out here and having friends and family over to enjoy it too. He is a pleasure to work with - we'd be happy to show you our home or provide a verbal reference.”
Atelier Chen Hung
Architects in Sunshine Coast, QLD, AU
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 June 2019
“The Little House For 30 years I had ideas of building a small, sustainable house for my retirement and had various architects sketch conceptional plans. Atelier Chung was able to take these early ideas and transform them by reincarnating them in contemporary form and then marrying them with the environment on my plot overlooking Kedron Brook in Brisbane. The result was beyond my expectations: high functionality, energy efficiency, sound but unobtrusive security and a very contemporary award-winning look in concrete, glass and timber. Its residents feel it to be spacious and open but its footprint - a mere 45 sqm.”
Rhad Leonardi
Architects in Sunshine Coast, QLD, AU
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars20 December 2017
“Rhad Leonardi developed the design of our house in Brightwater. We are very pleased with the design. It was well resolved in 3 dimensions, and has many commendable features that we are very please with. We would highly recommend Rhad Leonardi as a bespoke house designer.”
Draft Room

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars16 April 2020
“Laurence provided a very professional service. Drew the plans in record time and made changes speedily, we had no issues with the building approvals process and he was on hand for consults if and when we needed him. Laurence gave us substantial support & perfectly crystallised our thoughts into an aesthetically pleasing design which is light, airy and a pleasure to be in. The attention to detail can be seen throughout the whole house. I would recommend The Draft Room to anyone seeking a reliable architect and will be using them again on future projects. Thank you Laurence”

Adrian Ramsay Design House
Architects in Sunshine Coast, QLD, AU
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars26 November 2012
“Adrian was responsible for a total renovation of our holiday unit. He fulfilled the design brief, while also gently guiding us to more practical and modern choices. His quotes were accurate, materials high quality and good value for money and the end result is a functional, rental property that we would love to live in ourselves!!!! Thanks Adrian.”
Lifestyle Home Designs
Architects in Sunshine Coast, QLD, AU
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 October 2016
“Jeremy and his team provide great service & flair for alterations, additions & new home design. We have been working with Jeremy on major projects around the Northern Beaches and we have always found his plans accurate & well suited to our clients needs.”
Chilli Freaks
Architects in Sunshine Coast, QLD, AU
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars12 November 2014
“Cameron at Chillifreaks is a pleasure to deal with and displays a careful attention to detail when designing new homes, renovations and commercial projects. He is aware and conscious of local council guidelines and restrictions when designing to ensure what he produces is actually able to be built. He understands the need for budget to directly relate to design which is a crucial step missed by many designers as it can cause many problems between client, builder and designer. As a builder I have used Chiilifreaks services on more than 15 occasions and have never been disappointed with the result. I have never worked with a draftsman that is so quick to get his designs back to you and making changes to the plans is never to much hassle. Highly recommended.”

Architect or Architectural Designer FAQs
An architect is a professional who designs and creates building plans, ensuring the building is functional, safe, and aesthetically pleasing. They collaborate with clients to understand their needs and create designs that meet their requirements. Architects also consider building codes, regulations, and sustainability principles in their designs. They may oversee the construction process to ensure it aligns with the design intent.
If you are looking at a house extension or building a new home from scratch, chances are you are going to need the help of a residential architect. They have extensive knowledge of architectural design, construction methods and building materials, not to mention a strong appreciation of ergonomics – warmth, light and flow within a property. Architects will also be far more capable of seeing the bigger picture – carefully balancing aesthetic appeal with structural safety. With their local knowledge, your Sunshine Coast architect will also often help to obtain planning permission and building regulations approval.

    After choosing a residential architect, you will usually start with a consultation to discuss the project. Preferably at your property or building site where the work will be done. Give as clear a picture as possible of the kind of home you are trying to create to your architects. Chat through your goals, projected budget, scope of work, schedule and feedback, together with any very specific requirements you might have. They will explain their process to you alongside any other on-site visits up to and including the build stage, depending on whether they will be involved at that stage. From there they will produce the designs and plans required for your project.
    The cost of hiring an architect in Sunshine Coast can vary depending on the scope and complexity of the project, experience, reputation, and location. Architectural fees are typically structured as a percentage of the project’s total construction cost, ranging from 8% to 15%. For example, if a project has a construction cost of £500,000 and the architect’s fee is 10%, the fee would be £50,000. It’s advisable to discuss fees and payment structures with architects in Sunshine Coast during initial consultations.
