Home Renovation and New Home Design in Gordon

home design in Gordon

In truth, every single time we come across any home, we tend to make an assessment on the kind of people who live there based on the way it looks. That is just how it is.

After all, a home is indeed, in so many ways, a reflection of the one who owns it. Whether you’re having a new home built or renovations done, you will always see to it that every single aspect of that home is an accurate expression of who you really are.

At MK Home Design, we help you make your Gordon home everything you want it to be, and more.

Beautiful but functional

Naturally, every home owner wants their home to be as aesthetically pleasing as they can make it. Some designers, however, put too much focus on the aesthetics of the place, and put functionality in the backseat. That is something you cannot say about our resident home designer, Martin Kolarik.

Over the years, Martin has earned a reputation as one who blends form and function perfectly. Whether it’s an entirely new home or a major home renovation, Martin sees to it that a home’s decorative aspects never overshadow the need for, say, good lighting or ventilation. While all of Martin’s projects look great, they are also as functional as they can be.

A Home Designer who values what clients want

designing homes in Gordon - Martin KolarikIf you have worked with other home designers in the past, it’s possible that you have come across one who treats every project like his or her own personal artistic showcase, with very little regard for what the home owner wants. This should not be the case.

While a home designer’s expertise is absolutely necessary to get the job done, that job will never be truly done if nothing about a home reflects the personality of the home owner.

When designing a home, a good home designer should always take to heart any input from clients. They are, after all, the ones who commissioned the work. This is something that Martin perfectly understands—and practices with all of his heart.

Martin has proven to be more than just a great home designer. He is also a great communicator and listener. This is reflected in all the projects he has worked on over the years. While his work will always bear his mark as a top-notch home designer, it is apparent that his clients’ vision is seamlessly integrated into every single project. He believes that there must always be a balance between his own vision and those of his clients, and this principle is quite evident in every home he works on.

New home design in Gordon

When working with clients, we at MK Home design ask our clients exactly what they want with their new home. We ask them the most pertinent questions to make sure everything is done in accordance with their wishes. For instance, we are bound to ask about their budget, and how flexible it can get. We also ask about seemingly ordinary but absolutely essential details, such as the number of residents, or whether or not they expect any number of visitors on a regular basis. Home design involves a myriad of details, and we at MK Home Design make absolutely sure that every single aspect is covered, and covered well.

Home renovation in Gordon

home renovation in GordonAs a home owner, you can do any kind of home renovation you want. However, if you are planning to embark on a home renovation project, it is ideal that the renovation be major in scope. Why do we recommend this?

Imagine getting, say, your kitchen renovated, which is all well and good. How do you think would your entire home look when your sparkling new kitchen is in stark contrast to the rest of the home which has never been touched for years, even decades? Let’s say you want to make the façade of your home a facelift. This would be just fine, if not for the roof that is starting to show explicit signs of wear and tear.

Bushfire safety and local council regulations

Few home designers have as deep an understanding of Bushfire safety and local council regulations as Martin Kolarik. Whatever regulations the Ku-ring-gai Council is implementing for home design and renovation in Gordon, you can be absolutely sure that Martin will work them into his design for your home.

accredited chartered building designer GordonThe same goes for Bushfire Safety, which has become quite indispensable in a world that’s getting warmer by the minute. For the sake not only of your family but your entire neighbourhood as well, ensure that your home design or renovation was done with Bushfire Safety parameters in mind. If Martin Kolarik is your home designer, you can rest easy knowing that all of those parameters will be followed to the letter, making everyone the safer for it.

So when the time has come for you to build a new home or renovate an existing one, feel free to give MK Home Design a call. Martin and company will help make sure that everything about your home design and home renovation in Gordon will be just as you wish.

Welcome

Welcome to my website. My purpose is to help you create a wonderful place you and your family can call home.

It is about listening and understanding your needs and what you would like to achieve. I have spent the better part of my life learning how to create warm and welcoming spaces rather than simply designing houses.

Please have a look around. View the galleries of some recent projects and read the testimonials from past clients.

I have also written many articles on my blog to help you on your journey to creating your dream home. I look forward to assisting you,

Testimonials

A few words from our clients. Read them all in full here

Extremely Happy

The conversion of our 2 bedroom 1950’s bungalow to a modern 4 bedroom house has been an enjoyable journey that completed on time, on budget and with results that far exceeded our expectations.

Jon and Lindley Randle

Lane Cove

Invaluable Expertise

You can see quality in every design detail. During the construction process, Martin's expertise proved invaluable when dealing with council and a somewhat recalcitrant builder.

Dolien and Peter Nicolsen

Berowra NSW 2081

Innovative, highly professional and sympathetic

We wanted to suit the needs of our young family but Martin advised us on how to future proof our house design and meet our needs as our family grows up. We now have a stunning home and we couldn’t be happier with the architectural design.

David & Pauline

St Ives Chase

Fantastic

Martin Kolarik was instrumental in the design and documentation of our family home renovations a few years ago and I have pleasure in recommending his professional services.

Warwick J. Higgs

Chartered Accountant, Wahroonga

Far Exceeded Our Vision

At the completion of the building works, the end result is fantastic and far exceeds the vision we had all those years ago. Martin was able to take our scattered ideas for what we needed in a major extension/ renovation, at all times patiently working with our changing requirements, and deliver an end result that we are extremely pleased with.

Graeme Bradford

Turramurra

Very Happy

Martin's capable oversight of the builders and other contractors ensured we had a trouble free building experience. We continue to be very happy with the result of his efforts.

Patrick and Laura Mooney

A Joy To Work With Martin

Martin is very knowledgeable, organised and professional and it is a joy working with him. He gives every request due consideration, no matter how challenging the request.

Anja & Perry Poehlmann,

St Ives Chase.

Seven years on and still really happy

Seven years on and still really happy I am sitting here typing this testimonial for Martin, 7 years later, and really appreciating this amazing home we live in that is part of the bush environment, as well as providing my family with a very comfortable and modern home.

Mateki and Liam Payne

Hornsby Heights

Exceeded Our Expectations

Martin's ability to understand our core requirements and present answers and new ideas for our project exceeded our expectations. Several design features that Martin presented to us regularly get positive comments from visitors to our home, these comments have come from builders, designers and engineers.

James Douglass J.P.

Lane Cove

Invaluable

Martin has exceeded our expectations during a lengthy design and approval process. His attention to detail and flexibility in being able to interpret our ideas into a new functional space has been outstanding. His assistance during the quotation phase of the project was invaluable and resulted in us engaging a first class builder to complete the works.

Teresa and Peter Gray

Very Attentive

Martin listened very attentively to our requirements and very cooperatively finalised the plan, with careful discussion back and forth. We felt he always took on board our thinking, while respectfully putting his own suggestions.

James and Irene Franklin

Lane Cove

Very Happy

Now that we have lived in the finished product we can categorically state that we wouldn't change any part of the design. Indeed, the only parts of the renovation that we would change are those you weren't involved with!

Michael and Quyen

I Cannot Begin To Thank Martin Enough

One of our main concerns was getting the design through council as we were in a conservation area. Again Martin handled it with ease, going through first time with no amendments! Practically unheard of in our area.

Joe and Sonya La Rosa

The Ultimate Professional

On each occasion I have dealt with Martin and his business I have always found him to be the ultimate professional. One of Martin's strong points, which I particularly admire, is his ability to design to a budget and his understanding of building costs. I feel this is an area of design which many designers are particularly weak.

Mark Newman, Director, Newmark Constructions

Excellent All the Way

Martin Kolarik was the first person to provide a solution that specifically addressed our requirements. His additional suggestions very much enhanced our living and the value of our home. His unwavering commitment continued until the last paperwork was done, long after the final fee was paid.
