Takt | Studio for Architecture

We had an instant connection with Brent and Katarina from Takt. They understood our brief for the Pod from the start - a granny flat for my parents and a space for us to use when they aren't here. Connected from our house when we wanted and separate when required. They gave us the confidence to do things that were a little out of our comfort zone and we trusted them that the end result would be worth it - which it was. They also put faith in us to be a part of the design process and develop our own ideas which they happily incorporated. We have an amazing, adaptable space that changes use through the seasons and goes from granny flat to yoga studio to kids hangout to parents 'retreat' and all with style and practicality. If you are looking for the not so ordinary project I highly recommend Takt Studio.

Takt Studio for Architecture consulted with me and then both designed and oversaw the construction of a cottage re-build I had been gestating for some years. I found Brent and Katharina to be very tuned in and receptive to my own vision and ideas whilst bringing really interesting ideas of their own into the mix. Prior to making an agreement with them I visited a property they were currently involved with and they also showed me photographs of properties they had completed with clients. Their attention to detail was extraordinary and the final product is both aesthetically beautiful and functional. During the building process we made changes to the finishes including deciding to clad the residence in copper. This was handled efficiently and council permission was smooth due to the care invested in modifying the plans. Studio Takt managed the budget for the project carefully so that I always felt that I was in control financially and it came in pretty much on budget. Once finished I got Studio Takt to also do interior design and furnishing which set the property off beautifully. Brent organised a landscape architect to design and craft the surrounding gardens and the overall finished look of the interior and exterior of the property has been hugely well received by all who have seen it. The current tenants also report that it is a very comfortable property to live in.
