What our clients say

|

We engaged Taylor Knights to update our 1940s house in Ascot Vale. From our first design and walk thru meeting with James and Peter, it was clear that we’d made the right decision to engage them. They were creative, energetic and passionate about delivering to our brief. Injecting creative and thoughtful ideas into each concept which were delivered with clear conversation and beautiful meaningful drawings.

With a heritage overlay they engaged council early and ensured they had an understanding of the project, which assisted in efficient council approvals. Throughout the build James was engaged and assisted to ensure all details and questions were attended to. His knowledge of interiors and exteriors and current products and finishes is excellent. He is absolutely an expert in his craft!

We are so happy with our finished home. It is now open, light, beautifully detailed, maintained heritage features, retained garden and excellent lighting choices. We and our boys are thrilled with our family home. Thanks team!
