My husband and I worked with Nathan on an extension to our 1960s Mount Hawthorn home in 2012. The work transformed our modest brick bungalow into a light-filled, contemporary family home that made the most of the property's northern aspect and delivered us much-needed space for our growing family!

He worked hard to deliver and best possible design result on our budget and skilfully managed the building process. We couldn't recommend him highly enough to anyone considering an extension or a new home design.

We engaged Nathan Steele from Steelehouse Architecture to design a bathroom renovation in North Fremantle. We are very happy with the outcome. Nathan was very easy to work with and the final result is a testament to his design skills. His meticulous attention to detail is evident in the finished bathroom. Everyone who has seen it have made highly favourable comments. Initially there were site complications associated with the sewage system and this prevented us from having our preferred design and layout. However, Nathan took careful note of our wishes and presented us with several well thought out alternatives which were close to what we wanted and solved the problems. Once we had made our choice of design, Nathan recommended an experienced and expert builder who was happy to work with Nathan and who also made every effort to stay within our somewhat limited budget. We would not have found this builder without Nathan's assistance. We experienced no problems at all throughout the entire process; workmanship of all the tradesmen was of the highest quality and communication with the builder and with Nathan was excellent at all times. Nathan spent considerable time researching suppliers for fixtures and Fittings and we were extremely happy with his recommendations. We can strongly recommend Nathan for any architectural work.

We really enjoyed working with Nathan. He is a lovely bloke, a very passionate architect with a very creative mind and great attention to detail. He does not force his views on clients but talks through things to make sure everyone is happy. We'd happily recommend him to anyone.
