In this interview Suzie Hunt talks about style, residential architecture, interiors and the process of designing a home. Architecture is about people. I love people, I love talking with people and listening to their vision. I love understanding where they're coming from. I feel very lucky to be an architect and to be able to translate my client's personal vision into their new home.
Chimene and Barry Cocking discusses renovating and extending their home in Guildford, and making it a place for recovery and a new way of living. Well my brother-in-law was doing surveying work for Suzie in a house that she was building in Toodyay. It was around the time that we bought this property and we were looking for an architect.
Tena Wheeler is very familiar with the process of planning and building houses as she's built a couple over the years. In this interview she describes how building a new house with Suzie was a very different experience. She reflects on how she feels about her new home and what her visitors say about it.

Highly Recommend Suzie!! We had a consultation with Suzie as my elderly parents are considering renovating their original federation home in Cottesloe. Suzie was so warm and engaging and really understood my parents needs for ageing in place. Her invaluable advice was also sensible and practical. My parents feel very confident with Suzie's recommendations for their best options going forward. It was so refreshing to deal with someone who had my parents best interests at heart. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Suzie and hope to use her myself in the future.

I contacted Suzanne Hunt via the website, as I was in need of advice about how to begin our building project. Suzanne spent some time with me on the phone, and made some recommendations as to who we could speak to next to help us start the journey. I can recommend Suzanne as approachable and helpful, and interested in finding the best approach for us, even if we didn't become a client.

When my wife Gabi and I decided to build our “forever” home it was all a bit daunting to know where to start until we found Suzie and her incredible team. The moment we met Suzie we knew we wanted her to design and oversee the build of our home because her enthusiasm, honesty, practicality and integrity shone through immediately. Suzie is supported by the most beautiful and talented team of people including Cat, Amy, Jen, Franca and others along the journey who are such a joy to work with. Not only has our brief been met it has been exceeded and we now look forward to celebrating our stunning

I rang Suzie as a cold call in my initial house building exploration. I had no idea on what I needed to know or how to develop the right questions to ask. Suzie was really approachable and gave me straight forward comments on what I would need, issues that I should consider and definitely food for thought. Whilst we didn't go down the architect approach this time, I would certainly seek her advice again.

Making the call to Suzie was like finding the key to building enlightenment. The warmth of her designs is reflected in the warmth of her personality as she generously gives of her time and knowledge to help you understand the realities of building your forever home. The level of honesty you receive from Suzie comes from a breadth of experience and a commitment to professional ethics that rises above any self interest in securing your project. Suzie made me feel comfortable about my modest budget, made sure I was aware of the realities of what I could then achieve (as well as the options I had and

Susan might be one of the top ten Architects in the world for a home. Her subtile design que brings natures texture straight to the emotional subtile feelings of perfection along with not overstated presentations with balance is borderline genius! Stunning and well done girl! Your talent is amazing.
