Xnova Construction has been working with Devani Architecture to offer turnkey commercial and residential building packages. Their team is efficient and solutions oriented. We will continue to work together to deliver successful projects together.
Devani and I have collaborated and shared skill sets on multiple residential and commercial projects. I would recommend Devani Architecture to anyone who is looking for a team of motivated designers and draftsmen with well structured communications and operational systems.
We Get Sh*t Done! For us to fulfill that promise we need partners that live our value too…….Devani Architecture is one such partner. I know if I call on them, they will deliver – every time.
We engaged team Devani to design alterations and extensions to our existing family home. They carefully listened to our brief and presented us with design options that were fit for the character of the 1950's concrete villa. They ensured we got exactly what we wanted and proposed a design that works for us and blends character of the existing house. The Consents process and onsite-queries are also managed professionally and efficiently by the team. We highly recommend their services.
On behalf of Neal Construction Ltd, I am delighted to take this opportunity to recommend Devani Architecture. Devani was called to a project that had a stop work order due to legacy design issues from a previous Designer. Devani jumped at the project and swiftly remedied issues onsite and offsite. His response not only saved the client time, money and undue stress but ensured Neal Construction’s team could carry on work unimpeded.I look forward to working with Devani in the future and strongly recommend him and his team on your next project.
Devani and his team are extremely thoughtful and kind in their approach and to top it off - have the experience to match! They really took the time to walk us through all the different options when we were considering either renovating our existing home or to invest in a new build. They met us at all the potential sites and provided effective cost based scenario planning for each option. Thanks to Devani and his team we saved $1000's and couldn't be happier with our decision.
Devani has high performance and skill with his job. We have been working together for more than 5 years. A combination of good communication, latest CAD technology and a well trained team has made several of my developments successful. His mentality of working with customers rather than for costumers opens up several opportunities. I am looking forward to working with the team, for the rest of my life.
