Intro

Hello! This is Episode 340, and in it, I’m talking with homeowner and HOME Method member, Sophie, about the renovation of her Californian bungalow in Perth, Western Australia.

[For all resources mentioned in this podcast and a free, downloadable PDF transcript, head to www.undercoverarchitect.com/340]

Sophie and her partner finished their renovation project in April 2023, just 6 weeks before they welcomed their first child, a baby girl, into the world, and brought her home to their newly created renovation. 

There’s nothing like a baby’s due date to put pressure on project deadlines! And, if you don’t have kids already, it can be tricky to design a home that will suit a growing and changing family, especially over the long term.

However, as you’ll learn from my conversation with Sophie, she has so much helpful information to share about how she and her partner:

• purchased the right property to renovate

• how they thought about their design

• how they selected their team

• and the way she navigated her project journey, confidently implementing her learning and research.

And given the project was carried out during some of the most challenging COVID times, in one of the most separated locations in Australia at that time, you’ll hear how they kept things on track both time and budget-wise as well.

I’m so looking forward to sharing this conversation with you - I think it’s going to be super helpful as it’s packed full of great tips and ideas for anyone building or renovating.
