What People Are Saying About architechnik

“We engaged Jiun Der Chung back in 2012 to assist with a pool shelter DA. It involved the redesign of a dilapidated structure into something much more significant. Jiun Der was able to come up with a design that met all our needs and get it through council with minimal fuss, even though some aspects were a little controversial.

After that positive experience we engaged him on a full service contract for the renovation of the main house. It is a 1920s 3 level home that had an existing DA approved from 2008 by the previous owners. Jiun Der was able to come up with a very innovative design that improved significantly on the previous DA. He was able to effectively deal with planners and attended 2 council meetings and a mediation session with us. He warned us upfront that there was significant risks associated with the DA as it did not meet all of the council guidelines. We decided to proceed and after 8 months we got the approval with the original design concept completely intact.

So far in our dealings Jiun Der has proved himself to be an innovative thinker, efficient with his time and responsive to our requests. He has gone above and beyond to get what was a difficult DA all the way through the drawn out council process without ever thinking of giving up. We are looking forward to working with him as the project continues through the remaining stages of the build.”

“JD assisted us in the design and project management of the building of our home in Beecroft NSW. With a tight timeframe, humble budget and a huge checklist to work with, JD was confronted with what I believe one of the most difficult of client’s briefs.

Not only we found JD to be very passionate and creative about design, we were the most impressed with JD’s breadth of knowledge in the construction field. JD has superior knowledge about building products and he is always innovative about their use to enhance the look and at the same time save money and meet our budget. For example, bringing in the fibre-cement cladding into the interior of the building in order to blur the boundaries between inside and outside.

JD has also gone out of his way to provide detailed design of my feature wall, timber cladded guest toilet and timber kitchen island and worked with my joiner to deliver the final product. These featured items fit into his design so well and produce a wow factor for our house. I was so happy with the service provided that I later engaged JD and his team for my office fitout and I have no hesitations in referring his service to my clients and friends.”
