Our Ways of Working

Curious about the next step? We have built a pathway with small, medium and large ways we can help put you back in control of your project. If you have a question please book a quick chat with Sarah or reach out through the contact page.

Level 1 Check Up Services

For confidence and a sanity check, book here.

Face-to-face: Architect on Call

Architect-On-Call connects you via Zoom with Sarah or your local Architect GP. They will provide you with fast, professional and relevant advice - without hiring a full-time architect.

Stay in control and get on track 60-minutes at a time with a one-off discussion, or book a package for ongoing support during your design process.

Level 2: Workshop Services

Book here for more time to plan and find what you don’t know…yet.

Better Renovation Workshop

Change happens. Get alignment between your family’s needs and wants, budget, the environment and your design options. We will integrate your unique preferences from the beginning and you’ll explore new possibilities for your home.

Floor Plan Review

Do you have a layout or floor plan that you like, but don’t yet love? Maybe you’ve already started a design process with a draftsperson or builder.

We will show you, in detail, where to make the changes to make this the plan that you really love.

Sustainability Workshop

Match your home design to your climate and reduce your energy consumption, increase thermal efficiency, increase comfort and reduce energy bills. We are here to help you identify and prioritise the most effective ways to make environmental upgrades to your home and within budget.

Pre-Purchase Design Review

Which one should you buy (or rent)? Are you trying to decide between buying or renovating? In this service we will analyse your options and future renovation potential so you can step with greater confidence into your next big thing.

Level 3: Ongoing Care

When you have found your new archi-bestie.

    Before finding Architect GP we'd had a very stressful time trying to understand from various builders and draftspeople. Not being familiar with the process and charges we were at our wits end with all the conflicting information and huge range of price estimates. Thankfully Sarah was able to very calmly and clearly take us through the charges and steps. Until we found Sarah, I was literally in tears with worry as it was a large investment for us and we didn't want to get it wrong or get ripped off. It was such a relief to have her knowledge and expertise to guide us. We're so pleased with her approach and highly recommend her to anyone embarking on this journey whether you're a newbie like us or not.

  • Steven, Sydney

    Sarah was great and helped us with very practical advice when we were left in a genuinely traumatic situation from another architect. Although we didn't end up utilising the service provided, it should speak volumes that we still feel so positive. This is a testament to the realism, the lack of pushiness and general helpful attitude.... the opposite we experienced from other architects.

  • Rachael, Perth

    I had a workshop with Sarah and she provided some excellent ideas and suggestions around design and space problems that I couldn't work my way through on my own. Eventually, based on her suggestions, I was able to decide on the best option. Then Sarah helped me to turn those ideas into a plan - with drawings - that I've been able to give to builders to get a quote. My project isn't complete yet, but it never would have gotten started without being able to tap into Sarah's expert advice to help me sort and filter all my random ideas into a workable solution. I felt like I needed to scope all of the options before I could make the right choice for me, and Sarah helped me to do that. Thanks Sarah!

    What Sarah offers through Architect GP is a truly needed service. We are planning a substantial home renovation, and felt like we really wanted to get it right this time, having completed a renovation previously and feeling slightly disappointed with the result. We have hired architects for this project, but wanted guidance to make sure we were making the correct choices. Sarah walked us through the various options the architects had presented, and made clever and practical suggestions. We were also able to substantially bring down the cost of the project by going with some of Sarah's suggestions, while also not feeling that we had compromised on anything. If you're planning a renovation, do yourself a favor and invest in this service! It will save you time, money and disappointment down the track!
