I am pleased to provide this reference for Danka, an Town planner with Master in Architecture,with whom I have had the privilege of working on several projects. My experience with Danka spans the design of a balcony for my unit, a major renovation plan, and a driveway design plan. Throughout these collaborations, Danka has demonstrated exceptional skill, creativity, and professionalism. Danka worked on several Art Deco-inspired building plans for the two balconies in our complex, including my own. The process was thorough and collaborative, involving multiple iterations to incorporate feedback from all the unit owners. Her ability to balance the building’s original style with a modern touch was truly impressive. The plans were ultimately accepted by the owners and approved by the Council, and I am extremely satisfied with the result.
For my unit renovation, Danka designed a plan that perfectly met my requirements for a modern, open-plan living area. Her responsiveness, attention to detail, and cost-effectiveness made the project both seamless and enjoyable. The quality of her work exceeded my expectations. In addition to her design expertise, Danka provided valuable guidance throughout the approval process. She was instrumental in navigating the various steps involved, from the Owners Corporation application submission to working with Fair Trading and even the Tribunal. Her advice was always clear, competent, and proactive, ensuring a smooth process from start to finish.
Danka also assisted me with the design of a driveway for another property and managed the submission of the Council application for approval. Her ability to handle diverse projects with ease is a testament to her versatility and expertise. I highly recommend Danka to anyone seeking a talented, reliable, and dedicated professional. She consistently delivers excellent results and is a pleasure to work with.

“From the beginning Danka has acted very professionally and has not hesitated to meet up with us at odd times and keep us informed during the whole process.Danka is attentive and perceptive. She listened to our needs and developed a feel for our tastes and with that; she drew a few plans for us. The whole process of finding the right solution for us was made easier by Danka’s enthusiasm and love of problem solving. She very graciously redid the plans a few times as we changed our minds about what we wanted.This job initially seemed straight forward, but turned out to be more challenging. Danka coped very well with the extra challenge. All the plans and documents submitted to the council were meticulously made and together with her methodical approach to her work, the extension was approved by council without any problems.We found Danka’s advice, with respect to all aspects of this project, to be both sound and based on pragmatic and aesthetic reasons.We do not hesitate to recommend Danka.”

Despite all of the above, Danka managed to design the modern extension within the existing building. Getting the approval from the Council was a really great result. “
