Testimonials

Projects:

THE FRESHWATER HOUSE & VARIOUS COMMERCIAL, RETAIL & HOSPITALITY PROJECTS.

I have had the pleasure of working closely with U+I Building Studio for over 15 years. During this time, we have completed many projects together, including my own home renovations.

We delivered projects across multiple market areas, including residential, commercial, industrial and hospitality.

I would not hesitate to put their names forward for any project. U+I Building Studio is one of my most trusted and recommended design firms.

They listen carefully and consider the design brief. Uwe and Ines are experts in the planning process, and the details and are efficient in everything they deliver.

Having U+I on the project team allows me to focus on the build, as I know they have the design well in hand.

PRIVATE RESIDENCE | ORGANIC BREAD BAR: DARLINGHURST & PADDINGTON

I have worked with U+I BUILDING STUDIO for over 12 Years on three commercial projects and a renovation of my present home. U+I Building Studio is professional, has excellent attention to detail and is very creative. Uwe and Ines are thoughtful and patient. They listened carefully to our ideas and desires and worked hard to meet and implement them.

I am always impressed by their competence and the innovative design solutions they present. They are very timely with their drawings, responsive to questions and are a class act. Ines and Uwe are the best in their work, and I look forward to engaging them in future projects.

THE POCKET PENTHOUSE | THE GLEBE HOUSE

We've had a fantastic experience collaborating with Ines and Uwe from U+I Building Studio over the past few years on three different residential projects.

We appreciated the attention to detail with the overall aesthetic result.

Similarly, our builders and tradespeople commended the clear and detailed information provided by Ines, Uwe, and their team, making the construction process smooth and hassle-free.

Spatial planning was crucial for our projects in or near the city where space is limited. Ines and Uwe have a natural talent for optimising space and finding innovative design solutions that exceed our expectations.

Working with Ines, Uwe, and their team has been a pleasure, and we highly recommend their services to anyone needing exceptional design solutions.

Their professionalism, meticulousness, and remarkable talent make them the perfect choice for any building project.
