Sandy Anghie Architect

Whether it is a new build, extension or renovation, Sandy believes the foundation of a great home is a collaborative working relationship between the architect and home owner - listening and working together to create a home that meets the client's needs and aspirations from a design and financial perspective. Sandy's design ethos is about process - she understands that the process of designing homes is personal and for this reason does not have a set or predetermined style but works with her clients to ensure that the design for their home is the perfect solution for them. Sandy believes that the home owner should enjoy the design experience. Prior to starting her own architecture practice, Sandy gained experience in a wide range of architecture roles, including the Office of Government Architect, Syrinx Environmental and Hassell. Now, in addition to running her architecture practice, Sandy is the project manager of the Historic Heart Project, which looks at the revitalisation of the east end of the Perth CBD through the implementation of social and cultural initiatives with the city’s major stakeholders. Sandy is also a board member of Historic Heart of Perth Inc. Sandy has a regular column in the West Australian newspaper called "Meet the Architect", and has recently taken on the role of editor of "The Architect" magazine. Sandy is also a Chapter Councillor at the Australian Institute of Architects (WA), Australia’s peak body for architecture.
