We enjoy architecture, and we enjoy the process of working with our clients towards a common goal. The name hecticrAt itself is an anagram of the word Architect. Each of our designs is a unique solution to the challenges and opportunities presented by the site, your requirements and those of the local authorities.
At the same time, each design is grounded in our philosophy that nature and architecture go hand in hand. A patch of dappled sunlight, a cool summer breeze or a still pond. He regularly takes part in international architectural competitions, with his entry for the "Kenilworth Designer Dunny" being one of 12 designs shortlisted by the Sunshine Coast Council in 2016 from an international field of 174.

Including discussions with Council Planners, responding to neighbour's objections (if any) and amending design if required.
Difficult to not sound unrealistic about this lovely & talented human being. Demis is so easy to communicate with and seems to clearly understand a brief. I was so impressed with him on every professional level and on a personal note, his calm demeanour was so helpful to me through the stresses of dealing with Council and L&E Court.

Demis, from Hecticrat has been an absolute pleasure to work with. In addition to Demis’ easy going and engaging approach, he quickly got up to speed on our brief, has been very professional, quickly follows through on his commitments, and has been able to create options and solutions in meeting our brief whilst dealing with some challenging site conditions. I’d highly recommend Hecticrat to anyone considering either a completely new build or an addition to an existing home as we have

Demis is an absolute pleasure to work with. Demis is helping us draw up our dream home, by way of an extension to our existing house and has been incredibly patient, diligent, responsive, organised, proactive and helpful. Demis is very passionate about his work, you can tell he loves what he does and this comes through in his work. Demis is always professional, friendly and easy to talk to. He often sends through suggestions or ideas with no prompting and is always happy to revisit or test how other options might work. He has assisted us a great deal in pulling together our plans for Council and

I was so impressed with him on every professional level and on a personal note, his calm demeanour was so helpful to me through the stresses of dealing with Council and L&E Court. In fact, without Demis' attention at the correct time, I doubt very much whether I would have persevered through the process to get our DA. One of the things that makes Demis unusual in this industry is that he genuinely wants to give the client exactly what they want

Demis is a very professional and enthusiastic architect. He has a lot of experience dealing with Councils and Consultants and he will do his best to achieve the better outcome within the requirements. It was the best experience working with him and seeing how much knowledge and care he has for all his projects. I will recommend him to everyone with no doubt.

I have had the pleasure of working along side Demis Bhargava from Hecticrat Architects for the past 6 years on various high end residential projects.
As a builder, Demis is great to work with and found him to always have the clients needs & wants at his highest priority. Demis’s unique designs and fresh ideas makes working on his projects rewarding and always more than satisfied our clients.
I hope to continue our professional relationship with Demis in the years to come.

We are very glad we obtained the services of Hecticrat for architectural design and DA approval for our dream home.
Demis is an excellent architect and very knowledgeable in town planning matters.
Ours is a very difficult block of land 47 M deep with app. 15 M rise from front to back located in a council considered very difficult for getting approvals for new dwellings.
We had gone with a building designer earlier and completed two Pre DA meetings with council and found that we had more issues to deal with as the process evolved. Changes to council staff during the period did not help the process
