“Absolutely Wonderful Architects.
I love their stunning work and their approach to collaborating with you. Jo took time to understand what we truly wanted to achieve and then blew our minds with designs that were beyond what we could ever have imagined was possible. Just look at their portfolio and you will see what I mean. Great designs, enjoyable process, lovely people.....what more can I say! ”

“‘Jo is such a talent. We were blown away by her previous projects (both residential & commercial) so were very excited to have her on board to create a beach & farm holiday retreat for our family. Initially we considered a pre-fabricated building and Jo was very responsive to this idea, coming up with a creative, innovative and detailed concept that really fulfilled our brief. Unfortunately we were unable to go ahead with pre-fabrication however the underlying ideas and concept drawings were very much what we envisioned and would still work well with a traditional build.
We love the clever, subtle design features Jo comes up with - features we would never have thought of but which will really make a difference to the look and feel of the house. Her attention to detail with her designs is second to none and all the proposals and concept drawings were so well presented, really bringing the designs to life.
She is always open to our ideas & suggestions (and ever changing minds) and is able to interpret these ideas into concrete creation.
We have really enjoyed our planning sessions with Jo, seeing the original concept really evolve and we can’t wait to enter the next phase with the build due to begin in March!’”

“I thoroughly enjoyed working with you and was in awe of your amazing work and how you handled, with such equanimity, some very difficult situations. You are a real pro and you really did create magic for us, so a great big thank you.”

“We have found her to be creative, professional, helpful and cost-conscious. Jo will come up with a very creative concept and then work with you to make it suit your functional requirements, as well as keeping it beautiful. She is very focused on delivering on time and is meticulous regarding detail. Jo is a delight to work with and we would happily recommend her to potential clients”

“Jo and her team at Atelier Aitken are very talented and a pleasure to work with and we have no hesitation in recommending them. Jo first designed us a stunning residential apartment in Seattle, followed by a winter cabin in Snoqualmie, USA.  We absolutely love our home, which saw the transformation of dark 200sqm space into a beautiful, light filled, contemporary home that is fantastic for entertaining both our friends, and our adventurous toddler. She will carefully work with your brief while surprising you with ideas that often become the best feature of the home. Continuing our creative journey with Atelier Aitken, we are now working collaboratively on some exciting commercial projects.”
