Established on the South Coast of New South Wales in 1980, Edmiston Jones (EJ) is based in Nowra, Wollongong and Batemans Bay. Being a local is essential when dealing with regional conditions, local contractors and council regulations. It also means that our environmentally appropriate designs respect and understand the specific climatic and geographic conditions of our region. The practice has grown to a solid architectural team consisting of qualified architects supported by technicians and clerical assistants. Our regional background has not limited the range of projects undertaken and the diversity of work underscores an ability to take on each new project with enthusiasm and imagination. The practice functions as a skilled and motivated team with a commitment to overwhelm clients with quality design solutions. Our prime objective is to provide highly creative and innovative design solutions delivered with a clear management process that keeps clients involved and informed. Environmentally sensitive buildings that maximise site opportunities, while responding to climate and context, are the outcome of our design process. Edmiston Jones' team up with a variety of specialist consultants to ensure that projects are considered comprehensively, streamlining approval processes and ensuring trouble–free construction. When the necessity for specialist advice is established, generally after the concept design is resolved, proposals are obtained and the consultants’ services managed by EJ. The range of consultants required can vary from project to project. The broad variety of projects comprising EJ’s resume reflects the diversity of people the practice has been privileged to serve. As testimony of our commitment to exceptional service, ongoing projects for existing clients, and referrals from past clients, make up 80% of our current workload.
