We all know that there are many different types of residential architects. Their purview can range from modest homes to an entire city, involving design, develop, present, and management all sorts of projects. Choosing the right one will go a long way in helping you achieve your desired outcome. While the scope of residential architects can be vast and varied, they’ll often have strengths and expertise that can assist you to make the best choice for your build or renovation.
Since we started co-sharing offices in Northcote with Ben Callery Architects, we were already impressed by Ben and his team’s work and knew instantly that we had to collaborate with them on a project. So, when selecting the right partner for our BuildHer8’s Rathmines Project we knew their team could help us up the ante on sustainable design.
It’s no surprise then that BCA’s specialty is “design that is environmentally responsive and responsible!” Talk about a match made in heaven!
As we draw closer to finalising the design and planning of our project, our budding sustainability guru and passive-design enthusiast Ivy, caught up with the project’s principle architect Ben Callery, to chat sustainable design, good architecture and his top tips on working with architects.
