Michael Ellis Architects Pty Ltd

We had a very successful collaboration with Michael and the selected builder on our renovation of an early 60's brick veneer house. Collectively we achieved all the goals of the project which came in on budget and on time.

Michael has been a generous and responsive Architect. Following our purchase of the new property he provided us with great insight into his design and aspirations for the property including a proposed roof top development to add value to the property in due course. He was also able to help us with some adjustments to the design to suit our particular needs. Michael also shared with us information regarding subsequent awards that he was successful in achieving that adds value to our property. I highly recommend Michael Ellis Architects.

Michael helped us take our small unrenovated Victorian terrace in Middle Park and turn it into a great home that includes everything we told him was important to us and more than a few touches we couldn’t have imagined. People who visit are amazed by the light and the size of this house on a such a small block. He managed the process from start to finish including dealing with the strict council rules. Tendering for a builder, we we were ultimately very happy with. His guidance with interior colour, design and materials was especially helpful for someone who always chooses white !! I would highly recommended Michael.

The signature of Mt Angus stone in some of Michael’s work is what sparked our initial connection. Entrusting Michael to weave his magic and create our home away from home has been truely incredible. Not a ‘house’, not a ‘build’, but a real ‘home’ - a one-off masterpiece with elements tailored around our interests, tastes and preferences. An attention to design and quality - some of which is immediately obvious and some more subtle - a true work of art!

Michael helped us convert a tired 1980's home into a light filled, spacious contemporary living space. We found Michael to be creative, willing to challenge our thinking and fastidious with the details. The result was a wonderful premium quality home.

I have used Michael for plans and project advice for over 10 years.
To me the most important quality in hiring a professional is good communication and a clear feeling that they are really working for you.
I can honestly say Michael is always there batting for you, returns emails or calls within moments and never lets you feel abandoned in completing the task at hand no matter how complicated.
He is enthusiastic and a hidden treasure in these days where you do not get this sort of fair price attentive service and respect.

An authentic and experienced architect who knows the difference between great design and fads! What a breath of fresh air!
