Testimonials

Barbara and her team of architects were recommended to us by a friend and from the moment we met, we could tell that they were a "think outside the box" group. Their interior design ideas for our kitchen and small extension were nothing at all like we had considered but met all our needs, bringing extra light and space to our home. They were prompt in answering all our questions and efficient in dealing with our builder and surveyor. In a nutshell, we couldn't be happier.Read More

Barbara and her team completed a detailed investigative study for the Lakeside Owners Corporation (at 27 Queens Road, Melbourne) examining a number of complex building maintenance issues. They provided a service-level well above our expectations. BY Architecture proposed an innovative option for funding the works recommended which was beyond the original contract. At all stages, we were fully briefed on progress.Read More

Barbara Yerondais designed and supervised our renovation last year. She was wonderful at every stage. Initially, she provided us with alternative suggestions and discussed them with us.

She and Nurul were practical as well as artistic in their vision, always consultative and approachable. They brought us samples and made fabulous suggestions about furnishings, paint work, floors, windows etc. The building process ... Read More

So we decided to renovate an 18m long garage into a liveable area with 2 bedrooms, rumpus room, bathroom, and deck. We found Barbara after we searched on Hi-pages. We called three Architects and decided to work with Barbara because she held herself well, sounded very professional and has many years of experience.

"Barbara was professional, easy to talk to and she had all the solutions. She delivered an excellent design for the 8 units and the result… my property doubled in profit" “I wanted to have an approved design for a unit development on my property. I didn’t want to develop it myself, but wanted to pass on the designs and permit to the buyer. I found several architect company websites that could do the work. However, when I found Barbara Yerondais, from BY Projects Architecture, I instantly felt confident with her, because of her previous government projects. Barbara was professional, easy ... Read More
