Our Approach

Every project begins with understanding your needs

From concept to completion, we work closely with you to understand your goals, site and constraints. Our approach focuses on clear communication and thoughtful design, creating spaces that are functional, well resolved and built to last.

That means no confusing terms, just a clear process that makes delivering your project straightforward.

01

Discovery

We start by understanding your goals, site, budget, and constraints.

Through early conversations and research, we define a clear brief to guide the design.

02

Design

We take what we’ve learned and begin shaping it into thoughtful design proposals.

Through discussion, testing, and refinement, we work with you to arrive at a direction that feels both exciting and grounded.

03

Documents & Approvals

Our drawings are clear, detailed, and tailored to your project.

They support approvals, guide construction, and help bring the design to life without confusion.

04

Build & Beyond

During construction we remain closely involved, working with builders, consultants and authorities to keep the project on track and ensure the design is delivered with care and attention.

Our support continues through completion to make sure everything is resolved as intended.

We care as much as you do about creating a home designed around you. A space that fits your life today and grows with you tomorrow.

From our clients

I’ve worked with Nic, Tom, and Emma on both residential and commercial projects now, and cannot speak highly enough of them

Liam
Georges Place

"We love the integration of old and new and how it is both seamless but obvious for what is the 'old part' and 'new part. I now know the effort that goes into this... Great work from all the team".

Liam Brown Whale
George's Place

"Nic has recently helped our team & a client understand the opportunities he has in place for a rather large floor plate. In a changing market when companies require less & less space, nic has helped us stay on the ball & keep looking forward".

Movable
Hunter Street Development

"The attention to detail is next level. It’s not just the creativity of the design, which you would expect from an architect, it’s the finer details, that when you look closely, show a considered and deliberate approach". (article)

Julie Evans
HUNTERhunter

"Bringing the names of our tugs into the design of the entry was something we never would have thought of...the team produced an excellent outcome through their design process, we enjoyed the way they presented the architecture and this has resulted in a great building for our Svitzer Newcastle HQ"

John Leotta
Tub Boat simulator

”We are excited to see construction underway for a facility that will provide the latest and most advanced maritime training and technology for pilots, tug masters, and other vessels".

David Phillips
for Shipping Australia

"We needed a design for a renovation and rework of our bedroom, ensuite, other bathroom and bedroom. Nic and the team at Lyric Architects were terrific!"

Eilish Nagle
Merewether Residence

"Nic and the teams work with other contractors and Central Coast Council has been integral at getting the project up and running due to his relentless follow up and perseverance".

Baraka Leporte
Macmasters Residence

"We’re halfway through building our home with Lyric Architects and couldn’t be happier with the results so far. Nic has been great to deal with, his perspectives and ideas have been exactly what we’re after and the whole process has felt very collaborative. Wouldn’t hesitate to use them again"

Frank Hall
Hall House

"From first point of contact with Nic, right through to the final stages of the build, we’ve been stoked. Nic has the right level of suggestiveness, without pushing ideas onto us as clients and has a very collaborative approach."
