Melbourne is a big place, a cosmopolitan city, Australian through and through and yet proudly diverse. Because that’s what it means to be Australian now. When it comes to a house designer, Melbourne homeowners need an architectural practice that operates in a modern, thinking way, believes in giving everyone a fair deal and takes individual requirements seriously.
BY Projects Architecture is based on the more than 30 years’ experience of its founder, Barbara Yerondais, along with team members who each bring their own fresh ideas and progressive attitude to the table, making sure that it is all about catering for the individual. We don’t do easy, production line design because we believe everyone deserves a home tailored to their requirements, and that varies from person to person.
We are passionate about social inclusion; we believe in the importance of social housing and are just as committed to producing the goods for a small residential or commercial unit as we are to masterminding prestigious developments. We deliver on time and on budget – surely the basis of good business in any sphere, but sadly not to be taken for granted in this day and age.

Sustainability and How We Maintain
Regarding sustainability architecture, using locally sourced materials whenever possible is good not just for the local economy but for the environment too. The less distance something has to travel, the smaller the carbon footprint it makes, thereby using less energy, and there is energy involved in the next point, too. Human energy.
Maintenance is something that has to be addressed to keep a building operating efficiently, and this can be onerous, or it can be relatively easy. Again, this can come down to design. A low-maintenance home is one that has been specifically thought out and set up to require less effort to keep it ticking over, and there are obvious benefits here for older people and those with health issues or limited mobility.
As an architectural practice that looks at the big picture, we take these sorts of things into account, depending on the circumstances of our clients.
