Amrish Maharaj Architecture

Made contact with a builder to renovate 80% our our terrace house in the Inner West and they mentioned Amrish Maharaj Architect.At first we had a vision of what the design plans should look like and we soon discovered what great value Amrish was. What we first thought the design would be was quickly turned on its head and a full 360 design was drafted by Amrish.The way he redesigned the house to accommodate space, storage and light. Especially when we share close borders with our neighbors with no windows on the side of the house.The biggest success was getting the approval from the council as Amrish design the house so that the effects of shading does not effect the neighbors current sun-lite and the way the patio roof was designed to allow privacy to our neighbors when accessing the bedroom balcony.Amrish and the builder (Riverside Building) worked very close together to build our house and on schedule as well.Amrish thank you so much for designing our dream house!!

We had a 1920s California bungalow in a heritage conservation area with a single ageing bathroom and awkward room configuration. Our brief was to create a modern open plan space, more conducive to the needs of a growing family as well as restoring some of the period features of the original house. Amrish did a great job of interpreting our brief, during the design process coming up with an original design which exceeded our expectations. He made the DA process painless and successfully navigated the local planning dept to get the application through on the first attempt with only minimal changes. He also recommended some excellent builders for the tender process and helped guide us through the build process as well. Overall, we’re extremely happy with the final product. We now have a space that is 100% utilised on a daily basis. The original house has actually been enhanced rather than simply just restored. Amrish made the whole process extremely painless and I would thoroughly recommend him to others.

We engaged Amrish to help with our very tricky attic renovation. A bathroom and difficult roof design offered a challenge. As well as being an highly proficient architect, Amrish is personable, responsive with quick turnaround and offer great problem solving skills. Would highly recommend and very happy to work with Amrish again. From initial concept, thru to DA and construction certificate, Amrish helped make the journey easier. Thanks Amrish. Love your work.

I have employed Amrish’s services as an architect twice. He is incredibly skilled. On both occasions, he was quick to translate and crystalise my ideas. His flexibility made both processes much easier.He is also highly responsive, extremely quick in completing the work, and reliable.I wholeheartedly recommend Amrish.

Such a talented and delightful guy is Amrish.

We were referred to Amrish for a Commercial Fit out project and have been extreemly pleased with his professionalism and overall eye for Design. The design concept, plans and the support throughout the process of Council Approval has been exceptional and we highly reccomend his services.

Amrish has provided us with outstanding architecture designs and project guidance. We chose to work with Amrish because of his distinctive eye for building aesthetics and the passion he has for his craft.His ability to listen to our expectations and iterate designs to get the best outcome was much to our satisfaction.I would recommend Amrish to anyone who is looking at renovating or building with talent.

We engaged architect Amrish Maharaj for our recent renovation project.Our semi-detached cottage consisted of a series of poorly planned small spaces including a kitchen, dining and laundry, which restricted access to the rear garden. Being south-facing, the spaces lacked natural light, resulting in artificial lighting used for most of the day. The brief we gave Amrish for the renovation included a light and airy space with a loft parents retreat, a well-planned kitchen and a family area that flows to the outdoor space. The extension also needed to link with the original house but not imitate it.Amrish was able to transform that vision to life. From the initial drawings to the detailed plans required for Council, Amrish was professional, knowledgeable and innovative. His knowledge of Council requirements and processes were invaluable in ensuring timely approval of our project. We were clear about the process, his role and what steps we needed to undertake to transform our vision into reality. He worked to achieve the best result in within our allocated budget
