Approach

Each project is lead with care and commitment by our director, Eileen Hannaford.

Our process is considered and collaborative. We approach each project with a thoughtful, open minded process - beginning with the aspirations of the client and the dynamics of the site.

Projects are developed through a rigorous creative process, engaging with drawings, sketches, 3d models and material curation to explore, refine and communicate ideas. We take project management seriously, assisting clients to balance aspirations with real budgets, but we don’t lose the design magic and we have fun along the way.

We love the creative process and enjoy strong relationships with our clients, consultants and builders. With the right team and approach, we firmly believe designing and building can be a rewarding, collaborative experience.

Your work on Clarke St was so beautiful and well thought through which is why I came to you for my house. I love the floor plan and how considered you are when you design with the right balance of functionality and form.

As a client I have appreciated being heard, having respectful conversations but also being tested in my thinking.

I would happily recommend you.
— Julia. Clarke St, Rucker's Hill client
