Through the journey of architecture, a client discovers more on who they are
testimonials
“Our project was undertaken with a great degree of professionalism as well as genuine interest in the outcome. We had thoughts and ideas on just how the addition would look and were encouraged by Couvaras Architects to achieve exactly what we wanted. This included an impressive deck and outdoor area with a valley views setting.” - Ken Hall
“Couvaras Architects’ care for their client & projects is wonderful. They are a pleasure to work with. I appreciate the clean lines and fresh look of their designs.” - Carol Robertson
“Couvaras Architects are my first choice for a building project that requires creativity, lateral thinking and outstanding customer focused solutions. The professional team were dedicated and delivered more than expected each time we engaged and our project is multiple times better for it. It was a pleasure to work with them, they delivered greater value than we had hoped for and exceeded my expectations.” - Rohan Dredge
The following are referenced from ‘You and your architect’, RAIA, 2002
“Before we began, we saw so many other renovations that could have benefited from professional design advice.”
“Renovating is a process fraught with anxiety. Our Architect saved us a lot of nervous energy we would have otherwise needed for the project.”
“The Architect knows the acceptable standard the builder should work to - and I don't. If the builder tells me that the job he has done is to an 'industry acceptable standard' I can't argue the point.”
“At one stage the builder spent a good deal of time telling me a certain thing couldn't be done, and that he would have to change it. When the Architect arrived, he showed how it could be done and there were no further worries.”
“An important role of the Architect is to help advise what not to do.”
“Our Architect interpreted and embellished our ideas, and found special building materials for us that we didn't know existed.”
“He is the middle man in case of disputes. Because I did not have to argue with the builder about variations, I remained on good terms with him throughout the job - and co-operation was essential, because he was working where we were living!”
