As part of a renovation of a 1930’s bungalow, Wayde was engaged to design our kitchen. I had a fairly good idea of how I wanted the kitchen to look and perform. Wayde skilfully designed a kitchen that took those ideas, the quirks of the space, the functionality required and turned it into a beautiful place, which lifts my spirits every time I walk in. To achieve this, Wayde guided me through every aspect of materials, colour, form and functionality, including showroom visits where needed. To make Wayde’s task more difficult, I required the design to incorporate laundry functions. This was achieved and works seamlessly.

Comment from Wayde Beckman Design:

Thank you for the review and the opportunity to work with you on these improvements to your home. We had to fit a lot into a reasonably tight space, and I think between us we created a beautiful and functional kitchen (and laundry) that compliments the architectural features of your home. I hope it continues to lift your spirits for years to come. Warm regards, Wayde.

Wayde did a fantastic job helping us design, plan and build a new kitchen. In particular dealing with the Covid-19 lockdown and its aftermath. In more detail, Wayde: - Spent time discussing the design to understand what was important to us and how to make sure the kitchen met our needs. - helped us find a innovative designs that made much better use of the available space, including novel (for us) solutions like draws within draws, and a retractable electronic stack. - helped us navigate through the huge variety of designs and colours to find what worked for us. - develop a number of bespoke features, including metal panel with our own design. - helped us when, just after the kitchen was taken out, the level 4 lockdown started (March/April 2020). In the later stages of the lockdown, Wayge negotiated with contractors so that even during level 3 the work restarted, and we had a kitchen within a couple of weeks.

Thanks for the review Tony and Liz. This was one of those projects that required a close attention to detail. I enjoyed working with you to create a stunning and functional kitchen. Your openess to a bespoke approach made the project very rewarding. The screen is a definate highlight. It's not everyday I get to translate original artwork into my kitchen designs. All the best.

Wayde was great to work with - he helped us step through every stage of our kitchen redesign, starting out with what we wanted from a vision perspective, right through to the smallest details of selecting lights, tiles, etc. Wayde was happy to go into the shops with us, provide some great starting options, and give us feedback if he felt our selections weren't going to be best in our kitchen. Thanks heaps Wayde!

Comment from Wayde Beckman Design:

It was my pleasure to help you both get a stunning and well-appointed kitchen. It can be tricky to integrate a laundry into a kitchen without compromising one for the other. Your renovation is a successful example of this. Thanks for being great a client.
Warm regards

Wayde's design expertise and insights were invaluable in helping my team deliver a high quality kitchen and laundry space renovation earlier this year. His attention to detail was second to none and his devotion to ensuring the homeowners were comfortable with all aspects of the design and build process is unrivalled. I would not hesitate in recommending his services to anyone.

Wayde’s eye for detail and his vision for linking the features of the house with new kitchen was absolutely outstanding. We were so happy with the final result and everyone who has seen the kitchen has been nothing but blown away with the design. Wayde recycled the original stainless steel bench tops which not only saved a significant sum, but also connected the old and the new. Highly recommend.

We were undertaking a massive whole house renovation and reworking our kitchen was a major part of the renovation - we wanted a hub for our home and we wanted it to suit the practical needs of our family. We had loads of ideas about how we wanted the kitchen to look but we really needed a designer to add the practical design elements, provide us with product knowledge and to develop our ideas so it would work both aesthetically and tie in with the rest of our home. We were so relieved to have engaged Wayde from Wayde Beckman Design to design our kitchen. Wayde really listened to what we wanted, he didn't try to talk us out of what was important to us or send us down a different track. Being a creative, Wayde was able to fine-tune our ideas and add design flair and as a result, our completed kitchen is not only beautiful and stylish but it works, it flows and offers a hub for our home. We would definitely recommend Wayde Beckman Design.

Wayde transformed our small kitchen into a quality, modern and ergonomically designed kitchen. Wayde’s tradesmen are excellent producing high quality work in a professional and timely manner. The design and project management phases where excellent through careful listening and good communication. It was a pleasure to deal with Wayde, highly recommended.

Thanks for the review and for the opportunity to assist in making the improvements to your home. Your new kitchen exemplifies how quality is achievable, even with a small footprint and moderate budget, when a customised design approach is taken. All the best.

It was pleasure working with you both. You guys were the superb clients - considered decision making, creative and engaged - making the reasonably complicated renovation smooth with outstanding results. Thanks again.

Wayde made everything easy for us. He listened carefully to what we did and didn't want, and didn't try to force ideas on us. He made excellent suggestions within the brief that we gave. Wayde is fantastic at getting the most out of a small space and making the kitchen flow in a very practical way. We love the way his design looks and works. It has transformed our whole open plan living space. I don't know what we would have done without him project managing the actual fitout for us and it was great to know that he had it all in hand. There were a few little hiccups as with all projects, but Wayde responded promptly and his communication was excellent. This was the second time that we have used Wayde, and while we have no plans to move again soon, we wouldn't hesitate to use him again if we had another kitchen project.

I have friends who have used Wayde Beckman design over the years and was excited to engage Wayde when renovating our kitchen. We used Wayde's services for design and concept and were really happy with the options he presented us. We have, and will continue to, recommend Wayde to others as someone who listens to the brief and provides innovative but practical solutions. He is a pleasure to work with.
