We had a great experience working with Olga! She was professional, knowledgeable, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire project. Her attention to detail and understanding of what we needed made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend if you're looking for a reliable local architect!
We engaged Olga as Architect and Project Manager for a major renovation project at our home. Olga’s knowledge was invaluable in terms of delivering on our specification - making the best use of the available space and maximising light. She stayed true to the brief but developed it to ensure an end result that exceeded our hopes for the project. Olga drafted the tender documents, managed the contractor procurement, supervised the works, and certified payments. She assisted with the choice of materials and suppliers. Her input was critical to the technical as well as the aesthetic of the build programme, resulting in a beautiful but functional home. Olga was extremely easy to work with, always contactable and quick to respond. We would have no hesitation in recommending Olga for any building project.
I used Small Crane Architects (Olga Revello) to advise on a house extension and refurb. I worked with Olga and used builder Collie Gavin - and they were both excellent to work with. Olga has an amazing eye, and saw what I couldn't see and now everyday I get to live in this house. The house is small but has a sense of space and the most amazing light. We have gone from a house that just wasn't working, to a home that feels amazing. I have no hesitation in recommending Olga and Small Crane Architects, and builder Colie Gavin.
I can’t recommend Small Crane Architects highly enough. They helped us update our house to modern standards while still respecting its original character. Their attention to detail made a huge difference, and they were supportive, responsive and easy to work with throughout. We especially appreciated their patience and thoughtful solutions to the challenges that come with working on an older home. Olga and Steve’s combined perspectives really complement each other, resulting in a design that’s both functional and aesthetically strong. A fantastic team!
Olga was the architect for a complete renovation and extension of our home. She did an amazing job of combining our vision with her expert knowledge to create a bright, comfortable and beautiful home, greatly surpassing our expectations. Throughout the process, she was professional and communicative. We highly recommend this architectural firm.
