Social Housing Architects

Finding a social housing architect who can ensure that an upcoming project is a resounding success and completed on time and on budget does not have to be as difficult as you may have previously imagined. Here at By Projects Architecture, we are specialists in providing superior architecture solutions for homeowners, businesses and government organisations – and we have over two decades of experience producing top-quality designs and managing successful projects.

Founded in 2009 by Barbara Yerondais, an experienced professional architect in Melbourne and project management industries, By Projects Architecture has grown into one of the leading providers of private and social housing architecture Australia has to offer. We are passionate about working closely on an individual basis with every client so that we can obtain a thorough understanding of the requirements and preferences associated with their particular project, enabling us to come up with plans and designs which are perfectly matched to their situations.

The Best Social Housing Architect Available in Victoria

If you choose us to provide your social housing architecture solutions, you can be confident that you are in the hands of highly trained and experienced professionals. We will arrange a free consultation in which a member of our team will discuss with you your project specifications and requirements, before arranging a visit to your site at a time which is convenient for you. During this visit, we will conduct a Site Analysis to help us come up with bespoke designs that combine your project aspirations with the natural conditions of the site.

As leading sustainable architects, One of the most important aspects of our design procedure is utilising the natural and climatic conditions of the site to maximise the energy efficiency and sustainability of the finished building. Using only the best materials and equipment available for maximum insulation and durability, we will create designs that harness the solar energy, prevailing winds, slopes, trees, and other natural features of your property to help ensure that it can be heated and cooled without any unnecessary reliance on polluting and expensive non-renewable energy sources. In fact, we aim to ensure that our designs are Carbon Zero, which means that all the electricity needed to power the buildings is obtained from onsite and/or offsite sources of renewable energy.

I highly recommmend the team at BY Architecture.

Barbara, Howard and the team designed a wonderful extension to my late 1960s Melbourne home, ran the tender process to find me a builder, and superintended the build contract.

The design process that Barbara took me through was comprehensive, well-considered and highly collaborative, and the resulting extension and renovation was incredibly well-tailored to my specific needs and desires.

The tender process was similarly well-run, and we ended up choosing a builder that Barbara had worked with many times before and recommended. The recommendation was a great one and the entire build ran very smoothly, with the many quirks arising in a typical renovation being dealt with intelligently and with no fuss.

During the entire time I worked with them, Barbara and her team went over-and-above to keep me happy. As a result of their attention to detail and their focus on customer service, they ensured that what can often be a stressful time was actually a pleasure. I cannot thank them enough and would work with them again in a heartbeat.

Barbara and the BY Projects team were fantastic to work with for our knockdown-rebuild. We had no idea what we were doing or getting ourselves in for, and through every stage of the process Barbara explained everything and was supportive and transparent.
She drew plans for a beautiful house for us which fulfilled everything we wanted while adding such flair and style that we never could have imagined ourselves.
I was so glad to have her and her team on my side throughout the build process, as we would have struggled to advocate for ourselves (or even notice) mistakes or defects by the builder.
Overall, we just couldn’t be happier with the final result.

We were in a very difficult position after a VCAT rejection. Barbara came into our project and reimagined what was possible with our property. Going from a house with three shops with significantly reduced value to a development with two town houses, a cafe and all able to be subdivided into three separate properties. Barbara was positive, enthusiastic, charming at planning meeting and all in all kept us positive and hopeful. Barbara went through the whole process with us and I would say went above and beyond what would generally be expected. She worked well with our development team, working out strategies for planning challenges. We are very thankful for her time and energy.

We engaged Barbara and her team many times over many years for our Building Development Projects, including Multi Residential, Child Care and Mixed Use. Most recently for a couple of houses in Port Melbourne with complex Heritage Overlay requirements.

Barbara worked with us closely to ensure all design requirements were achieved to exceed market expectations. All permit requirements were managed in a professional and timely manner, and all processes were met on time and on budget.

The finished buildings were outstanding and the realized sales well above market expectations.

We highly recommend BY Projects Architecture for their Design sense and construction experience.

I have worked with Barbara and the team at BY Projects on a number of projects now. Its hard to think how you could get better value for money. They are great architects - that goes without saying. But its the extra mile they go to on your behalf in order to secure the very best for you that makes all the difference. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them for your next project.
