Testimonials

“Design Science by name, and absolutely Design Science by application! David and his team don’t just meet expectations — they exceed them every single time. This is my second full house project with David, and after initially working with an architect, the difference was night and day. What a breath of fresh air! David actually respects a budget, thinks practically, and is relentlessly solution-focused. He cares more about delivering for the client than unnecessarily spending a client’s money. He listens, truly listens, understands what you mean (even when you don’t or can’t say it directly), and makes the whole journey centred around you as the client. And then there’s the technology — this blew me away! From day one, his approach to capturing every single key measurement of the house, then turning this into 3D modelling and rendering brought my project to life with stunning clarity. It’s 99.9% accurate, allowing real-time changes so you can see your design evolve exactly as it will look when finished. Coupled with his hands-on building knowledge, and you get a rare, full end-to-end building solution you can believe in. If you’re serious about building or renovating, stop searching — contact the Design Science team.”

“We have been working with David and the team at Design Science for several years, engaging them for clients who come to us without existing plans. In the vast majority of cases, homeowners approach us with renovation ideas but no drawings — making it impossible to provide accurate pricing. Design Science bridges that gap perfectly. Whenever we refer clients to David, the feedback is consistently outstanding. By the time they return to us, they are informed, confident, and ready to build. The plans produced by Design Science are always delivered on time, clearly detailed, and highly accurate. Their 3D renders and virtual walkthroughs allow clients to fully understand their design long before we progress into deeper preliminary discussions. Their high-end scanning technology ensures existing structures are documented with exceptional accuracy, which is invaluable for both design and construction. And because David and his team are Licensed Builders themselves, their plans are not just visually impressive — they are practical, buildable, and considerate of real-world construction requirements. We have never experienced an issue with any client who has engaged Design Science; instead, we receive consistent praise.”

“It’s been a few years since we engaged David to help us with our renovations. We started off with a consultation and realised straight away that we had come to the right place. I say renovations plural, as we have now completed 2 projects with David — a renovation, and an extension to make more space for our family. We had started with David and his team due to the simple fact that he was also a Licensed Builder and not just another ‘draftsman’ like the several we had spoken to before him. He took time to look over our existing house, explained the how’s and why’s of why some of our ideas might not be as easy as we thought. We felt like he understood what we were trying to achieve and then took those needs and presented us with something that was far better than what we were already thinking. Their ability to show us plans in 3D, rendered images and an actual virtual walkthrough of exactly what we were getting made it so much easier to understand and far less stressful. David and his team did both our designs, plans and construction. I cannot recommend David and his team at Design Science highly enough.”

“David did the design for our house extension and we couldn’t be happier with the way it has turned out. The builders commented that the plans and design were really well done and made a lot of sense to them — they weren’t surprised when I told them Dave also has a building background. We have just moved back into the house after 6 months and we can’t fault the design! Overall I really enjoyed dealing with Dave and he delivered exactly what we wanted — no complaints at all!”

“We hired Design Science between 2020 and 2023 to design and build a backyard shed with bathroom that suited our needs. David and his team handled the entire project. David was prompt and clear in his communication, taking the time to explain the process multiple times when needed. While the budget initially seemed high, the team stayed within the agreed amount — which I’ve heard is rare in this industry. The quality of the finish was excellent, and aside from some weather delays, the build was completed within the expected timeframe. Overall, I’m very satisfied with the outcome and plan to work with Design Science again for our upcoming house renovation.”
