TESTIMONIALS
“At last there is an Architect that can bring design inspiration and work within a set budget. I had grand ideas that were way beyond my desired budget, Virginia came up with alternatives that met my ultimate needs and understood the practicalities of the build and costs. A pleasure to work with and I will use Virginia again.”

Working with Virginia on my new home was a great experience and the whole process was very enjoyable. She was always efficient, things happened when she said they would and she formed a strong rapport with the builders which helped the project run smoothly.
The house works perfectly with the location and as it was being built I'd notice small features of the design that made the most of the views and sunshine on the section. All this added up to a house that has the X-factor of feeling good to walk into.
I'd have no hesitation in recommending VBA to anyone thinking of building.

Our brief to VBA was to convert an over shop apartment into a modern functional home while retaining important heritage features. Virginia introduced a number of skylights which turned an East West facing space into a warm sunny home. We are thrilled with the outcome.

Extraordinary! We thought we could figure it out ourselves but VBA provided an exponentially better building that we could have. It's not just beautiful, it functions beautifully. They took us from being a three-part, dark, dingy and disconnected building to becoming an award-winning facility the whole town can feel proud to have.
Virginia and team were a pleasure to work with - down to earth, pragmatic, creative and agile. We were novices but they never treated us that way.
Their ideas definitely took us beyond our wildest dreams - great guidance, backed by smart reasons - often things that we hadn't thought of - light, storage, look and feel, everything.
We couldn't be happier with the experience or the outcome - it was phenomenally good. Hey, Virginia, put us on your "speak to" list if you have one - we'd answer any questions and show them around!
Thanks so much! Yes we are raving fans because... unbeatable result, unbeatable value. What more could you want?!
