$$$ Architects & Building Designers in Dandenong. 5 Stars Only

“We could not recommend Mihaly Slocombe more highly. From the beginning, their design process was clear, structured and easy to understand. Everything felt upfront: what would happen, how decisions would be made, what our role was, and what their role was. That clarity made the whole process feel calm, collaborative and trustworthy. What they did exceptionally well was act as the interface between us as clients — people with strong ideas, feelings and hopes for the house — and the actual discipline of architecture. As clients, it is easy to come in with fragments: “we want this material,” “we want this kind of bathroom,” “we want the house to feel like this.” Their gift was that they listened carefully to all of that, understood the underlying experience we were trying to create, and then turned it into architecture. The relationship felt genuinely collaborative. We could ask questions at every stage. We felt heard, but we also felt guided. There was real trust in the process, and that trust was rewarded again and again. They kept an eye on the prize, protected the quality of the design, and were deep advocates for the house throughout the process. The end result is fantastic. It is not just a beautiful object - though it is certainly that - It is a space that creates the conditions for experience to happen: family life, quiet, light, movement, rest, beauty, and a sense of being held by the building. Because of their work, we now have something that feels as though it will outlast all of us. A truly beautiful house, and a wonderful architectural relationship from beginning to end. Five stars without hesitation.”

“We are absolutely thrilled with our Eaglemont modern home designed for us by Sky from Sky Architecture Studio. From the very beginning, Sky demonstrated an incredible ability to translate our vision into a functional and aesthetically stunning design. What impressed us most was Sky's attention to detail and ability to understand our needs. Sky carefully considered every aspect of the design, from maximising natural light to ensuring the layout perfectly suited our lifestyle. His creative use of space and materials gave us a home that feels both contemporary and timeless, blending seamlessly with the surrounding natural leafy environment in Eaglemont. Throughout the process, the Sky's engagement was outstanding. During the building period, we also engaged Sky as our Contract Administrator. Sky checked in with us and the builder every fortnight to ensure everything was progressing smoothly and aligned with the design. He was always highly responsive, efficient, and proactive in addressing any queries or potential issues, which gave us a great deal of confidence throughout the build. Sky's ability to collaborate effectively with our builder ensured that the design was executed exactly as intended, without any compromises on quality or detail. While Sky's engagement did come at a cost, the value he delivered was absolutely worth it. The level of expertise, creativity, and attention to detail he brought to the project exceeded our expectations, and we firmly believe that the final result justifies the investment. We couldn’t be happier with the home we now have—a space that is not only beautiful but also a joy to live in every day. We wholeheartedly recommend Sky's services to anyone looking to design a unique, high-quality home. His professionalism, responsiveness, and passion for design truly set him apart. Thank you for creating a home that exceeds our expectations and will be cherished for years to come! Thank you Sky!!! Tim and Serena”

“Creative and Amazing! Peter & Seline from Arki Design Studio worked with us to develop plans to build our dream home. We had explored options and ideas for years on our own, and were excited when Arki Design came to us with a solution, the whole family loved. Peter’s knowledge, passion for design and creative energy, was exactly what we were looking for. The final product is above and beyond our expectations! Not only were they responsive through the process but also provided construction supervision and finalised all our Interior design requirements, to full completion. We look forward to working with your team again, in the future.”
