September 2022

We feel very fortunate to have Quin as our architect. From the very beginning he listened to us, and married that together with a vision and imagination that created a great design outcome for our project. He produced quality plans in a timely manner, and importantly showed great flexibility in discussing any perspective changes. We highly recommend Quin.

I have been working closely with Quin Wyatt to design our new home. He has been extremely professional and a pleasure to work with. He is engaging, thoughtful and works in partnership with you to deliver an awesome outcome. He is approachable, he makes himself available and responds quickly with detailed plans and elevations.

We are absolutely delighted with the design of our new home and we highly recommend him to anyone who would like to create their dream home

When we first met Quin we were really impressed that he devoted 3 hours of his time to listen to our ideas and we certainly had a lot of them. He suggested we go away and think about exactly what we wanted. We met again for another few hours and as a result he has designed a house for us and incorporated all our requirements beautifully. We were thrilled with what he proposed as our block is a challenging one.

We have never built before and the plans that he sent us were clear and showed us exactly what we were getting and it was easy to visualize what the exterior and interior will look like.

Its very exciting to put the project into council and we look forward to the build.

We were very fortunate that friends on the Mornington Peninsula recommended we should contact Quin when we were looking to build.

Quin was such a pleasure to work with, and his knowledge, creativity and understanding of design, building and local planning regulations made the process so enjoyable and stress free. We just love the design of our new home; it not only met our brief but exceeded our expectations.

For first timer home builders, it can be a such daunting process but working with Quin gave us the confidence and peace of mind.

We are now looking forward to getting our build underway so we can enjoy the beautiful home Quin has designed for us.

We are very excited to see our new 'forever' home, designed by Quin, currently taking shape in Rye. It was very clear from our first meeting that Quin had the breadth and depth of knowledge relating to practicalities of planning a new home in this area to make the process as simple as possible. From a fairly general brief about what we wanted Quin was able to design & refine a plan for a home that we are delighted with, being both practical and aesthetically pleasing. He took energy efficiency into consideration as part of the process, relating to the building orientation, insulation & use of solar energy. Quin drew up detailed plans very efficiently and then quickly incorporated our feedback. We loved being able to see clearly what the building would look like, including the interior. The various permits we required to start the build were issued with a minimum of fuss, which was very reassuring. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Quin's skills as a building designer.

We've recently had the pleasure of working with Quin to design our family home in Safety Beach. From the initial meeting we were able to start imagining his creative vision - and knew he’d deliver something beyond our expectations. We can't wait to bring this Quin Wyatt design to life in 2021!

Upon meeting Quin, you will instantly feel the enthusiasm he has for his work. He has the powerful combination of strong knowledge for construction techniques, mixed with his passion for design - this sets him apart from any architect I’ve worked with in my 20 years in the building industry.

Thanks Quin - we love your work!

We engaged Quin to help design our beach house. Quin was friendly, responsive and always willing to assist. He understood the design limitations of the site and produced a great design that was accepted by the Council without amendment. Highly recommended.

Quin has worked closely with our family to design a beautiful beach house for us to enjoy on the Mornington Peninsula. From the initial brief, through to the final building approval, Quin has supported us with solutions and ideas to fit with our vision and budget. His passion for the use of natural ventilation, light and good insulation has produced a design which I believe will serve our family perfectly for many years.

We are looking forward to the completion of the works, so that we may enjoy this lovely house which he has designed for us.

We were looking for a designer who was prepared to take on the redesign of our 'quirky' old A frame house and Quin was an enthusiastic supporter from the start.

Quin listened to our ideas, turned them into better ideas and translated them so that they would meet the many regulations that impact on major renovations. He is prompt and meets deadlines as well as consistently helping us to stay on track when navigating the 'system'.

We engaged Quin to design some changes to our holiday home in Portsea, and were delighted with the process and the result. Quin was able to support our ideas but brought in practical and stylish design principles that suited the area and the house, especially regarding the materials and architectural feel of the original build. Would recommend Quin's services as he has helped to transform our 20 year old home to a contemporary style.

We engaged Quin to design new plans for a large renovation of our existing house. I have to say that we couldn't have been happier with our choice. Quins' professionalism, speed of turnaround and expertise has been exemplary. His knowledge of the local council building regulations and overlays means that our plans passed through our local council and permits issued with only one tiny minor alteration. (the colour pallet of our fence) He has listened to our requirements, is collaborative, knowledgeable and offers such great advice when thinking and looking at designs and materials for the home. We can't wait to bring his vision to fruition with our build beginning early next year. I would have no hesitation in recommending Quin to anybody looking for a great building designer.

AMAZING! Quin designed our new house in St Andrews Beach, from the minute he answered my call, Quin was keen and wanted to meet us and take on our project without any delay, Quin knew exactly what we wanted, he listened to our vision, he explained every detail, he spent time with us, and he had our drawings done within 3 weeks, the attention to detail was mind blowing, our design was perfect! thanks to Quins building and design experience, he designed an amazing state of the art home that captured ocean views and surrounding landscape, every aspect of the design was creative and clever but at the same time practical, Quin knew the council restrictions to avoid any delays and rejections, our block is in a flame zone, with vegetation and design overlays, so this was not an easy task, Quin nailed it!. Our plans have been approved with the Council in record time. Quin's passion for our new home design has been impeccable, the best part was the latest design software enabling us to log in on our phone or computer and view the drawings and 3D images anytime, not only did this safe us time, we could see exactly what the house was going to look like once finished, we were updated and included in the whole design process, undeniably the best decision we made hiring Quin and he is an absolutely amazing human being as well.

We engaged Quin to design our new home. We wanted a large, sustainable, bespoke design that suited our lives. Quin listened well, gave us pragmatic advice, and created a design that we loved. His work was always timely, and we really appreciated his flexible and collaborative approach. As first time owner builders, he answered all of our questions, and guided us through the design and planning process, which was really reassuring. We highly recommend Quin.

We were super impressed with Quin. He was very easy to get along with a great listener and also has the customer’s best interests at heart. We are grateful to come across Quin and his services. As being a first-time homeowner builder the process can be overwhelming but his prompt responses and directional advice have made the process quite the opposite.

Quin has been really good to work with. We wanted to design a substantial extension to an existing historic house. It needed to be sympathetic, yet fitting well in the environment with good livability and function. After several iterations we finally got a result that we are overjoyed with. Quin came up with some really good ideas and brought it all together very well.

From start to finish Quin never let us down. His creative designs, passion and concepts for our project really helped breathe life into what would have been just a standard extension . He was able to reflect his building/design knowledge and help produce not only a practical space but a beautiful one to enjoy for many years to come! Quin takes everything into consideration when putting together his concepts Light source, types of building materials and overall build to your budget, If we build again we will be using Quin!

Quin was very easy to work with and turned the job around much quicker than we expected. He brought a lot of great ideas to the table which we had not previously considered and came up with a plan that is both functional and beautiful. My wife and I had different "none negotiables" for the design which have all been incorporated into the plans. As a result, the build will be more than we had budgeted but will give us the space we need for our growing family. The 3D renderings gave us a great idea of what the finished house will look like and really helped to visualise the news spaces. 

Quin has also been a big help in walking us through the process and letting us know who we need to contact and when for all the various surveys and reports required to help prepare for the building permit application. We are now looking forward to getting work underway so we can enjoy the home Quin has designed for us. Nathan Alfrey October 2017

I have known Quin on a professional level for over twenty years. I have seen his design work only go from strength to strength as he is now one of the best designers on the Mornington Peninsula. His knowledge on structural aspects and design makes him a go to designer for myself whenever I require these services. We have worked together on both small and large projects with fantastic results every time. I would strongly recommend Quin Wyatt Building Designer for your next project. From sketches to completed projects Quin is there to help you achieve your desired outcome on time and on budget.

Quin has been efficient and informative as he worked with us on finalising out design for the renovation proposed. He has a real grasp on the technicalities of conducting the build, great ideas on the finial design, a good grasp of the culture and requirements of the local town planners and a 'can do' attitude towards working with the various trades involved. We are very happy with quin's services and skills.

We are yet to commence our build however greatly appreciated Quin's expertise to enable us end up with a fantastic design for our extension. The result was a lot different to what we had in our minds initially but we were able to work through to a design that exceeded our expectations. Quin provided a great balance between being able to listen to and consider our ideas and to include his own ideas and expertise. Deadlines and budgets were applied as agreed.

“Working with Quin over a series of meetings (and numerous coffees at our old kitchen table) allowed us to express all our ideas - what we liked and we didn't. The resulting design perfectly captured the essence of our ideas. We still get a buzz coming down the driveway a year after completion! Nicky & Martyn

We are very happy with the design and drawing work provided by Quin for our new house in Rye. Quin offered professional advice and expert knowledge as we worked through the design for a difficult block of land. Quin is current with the complex building regulations and he assisted us with this so that we could meet the building certification requirements. The result is an impressive house with exceptional street presence, as well as a very liveable and energy efficient home.

Hi Quin,

Re: Frankston 10/02/2015

I just want to thank you for the beautiful plans you drew up for us, and the vision that you had for our house. Now that it is all coming together I am getting very excited about how it is all working out! The back deck is going to be wonderful.   Now the roof has finally gone on, I am thrilled that there is still plenty of light through the house, and lovely views (at night we can see all the lights twinkling in the distance), but the roof affords some shade so it is like having another room out there! 

Anyway, it has been on my mind to say thank you, and of course we would love you to come and see the house at some time so you can see how it all turned out! 

oh and also I would like to tell you that I really love the colours that you suggested - the house is still being painted but already you can tell how it is going to look.
