We engaged Whisker Architecture to design our forever home and we are over the moon with the result. We specifically wanted an energy efficient, passive solar home that will serve us from having young children, through their teen years and hopefully into our retirement and empty nesters. We ended up with the additional challenge of a BAL40 fire rating which Audrey and Winnie took in their stride. Our house is beautiful but also comfortable and functional. Audrey and Winnie took the time to understand our vision and needs as a family and were responsive, friendly and easy to communicate with. They were also happy to liaise in the design and tender stage with our chosen builder which made the build process more efficient. Thank you Whisker Architecture!
