Every Melbourne era renovated, priced at feasibility, fixed fee from day one.
Book a Feasibility SessionRenovation is the practice's daily bread: taking a house that half-works and finishing the sentence. Not decorating, and not demolition by another name, but replanning, light, structure and services rethought so the home you already own becomes the home you actually need.
A renovation succeeds by understanding what it renovates. Victorians want light let into cellular plans; Edwardians want their generous bones decluttered; interwar homes, like our Nevis House project in Camberwell, often need decades of ad-hoc additions consolidated into one coherent plan; postwar veneers, like our Altona transformation, hide fine family homes inside ordinary shells; and mid-century units, like our 2025 Harvey Street project in Malvern, reward respectful reinvention. One practice, five playbooks, all delivered recently.
The house read honestly: structure, plan, light, permits and budget weighed in one sitting, with a drawn concept you keep and a fixed fee agreed before design begins.
The replanning resolved on paper, then documented so councils can approve it and builders can price it without surprises waiting on site.
The architect who drew the renovation stays accountable through the build, so decisions on site answer to the design rather than the shortcut.
Where your home carries a Heritage Overlay, the renovation runs through our deepest lane: 59+ heritage approvals, with dedicated pages for heritage extensions and protected-property work.
[Design note: live page's process section is retained in the WP build — spun sentences stripped per audit.]
