Mixed use / commercial developments

The staff of Katris and Associates Pty Ltd consists of qualified βin houseβ Architects, draftspersons and administrative staff wth a design philosophy surrounding aesthetics and pragmatics. The office of Katris and Associates has produced a wide range of building types, that have not been dictated by a specific style of Architecture. Rather, the goal of each design is ,both, to satisfy the Clients needs, comply with Statutory requirements, and enhance the streetscape as well as the surrounding built environment. "Not only does the building need to be aesthetically pleasing, but it also must be buildable."
