After conducting a thorough assessment of our home and initial consultation, the design and detailed scope of works were tailored to suit our budget and requirements. Our home is nearly 100 years old and John was always open and honest about the challenges. He showed extensive knowledge in overcoming issues and was able to find practical solutions that saved us thousands.

John has exceptional skills in managing what is a complicated design approval and tender environment. His experience in the industry was proven on a number of projects where practical construction solutions were needed to meet budget restraints and on-site challenges. John is extremely project focused. He understands how to translate quality design in the construction process. He is transparent in his approach and is a true problem solver.

- Carlo Russo

We have recently worked with John to design a bespoke renovation and first floor addition which had to take into consideration our family needs, site challenges and budget. We were very happy with the whole approach undertaken by John as he had an unbiased approach to solving problems whilst being conscious and balanced about our desired outcome. This was proven throughout the discovery, design and tender process.
