residential projects
"YDA creates homes that marry beauty with sustainability and accessibility. Our ethos is rooted in the belief that homes should seamlessly connect us to nature, enriching lives through thoughtful design."
RESIDENTIAL PROJECTS
Are you the proud owner of a piece of land, filled with dreams of constructing your ideal home? Or perhaps your family is expanding, and you're considering a complete rebuild to fulfill all your needs. In either case, you're in the right place, and you've taken the first crucial step by seeking an architect to guide you through your project.
We'll thoroughly explore your options based on your budget, your vision, and the local council's regulations and site constraints. Once the initial concept resonates with your aspirations, we'll diligently refine the design, compile the necessary documents for planning approvals, and oversee the transformation from blueprint to reality.
New build
Uncertain about whether to embark on a renovation and extension journey or opt for a complete rebuild to meet your evolving needs? Multiple factors come into play, including your budget, site constraints, and the environmental impact of demolition and reconstruction. At YDA, we belong to a new generation of architects with a deep commitment to reducing the carbon footprint and presenting sustainable design options that benefit the environment, future generations, and you as the end user.

Designing for Adaptability
At Yasaman Davachi Architect, we believe that excellent design should not only meet current needs but should also anticipate and adapt to the future. Our commitment to adaptability is evident in our approach to architecture, where we integrate the principles of "Aging in Place" and accessibility into our design philosophy.
At YDA, we consider adaptability, aging in place, and accessibility as essential components of our architectural practice. Our goal is to create spaces that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional and welcoming, both today and in the years to come.
AGING IN PLACE
The concept of Aging in Place acknowledges the imperative of maintaining individuals' independence, comfort, and safety within their homes as they age. Emphasising the evolution of our living spaces alongside our changing needs, our architects prioritise the long-term well-being of our clients by integrating design elements conducive to aging in place.
Safety and comfort take precedence in our approach, manifested through features like non-slip flooring, grab bars, wider doorways, and well-lit spaces, ensuring a secure and comfortable living environment for years ahead.
Additionally, our design philosophy centres on creating flexible spaces that seamlessly adapt to evolving requirements, be it a home office, guest bedroom, or an accessible bathroom, ensuring the home remains versatile and accommodating throughout life's transitions.
Accessibility
Accessibility is at the core of our design philosophy. We believe that every space should be welcoming and usable by all, regardless of physical ability. Our approach to accessibility involves:
Barrier-Free Design: We create barrier-free environments that eliminate obstacles, ensuring that every part of your home is accessible to everyone. From ramps and elevators to step-free entrances, we make accessibility a seamless part of your living space.
Inclusive Features: Our architects incorporate features like wider hallways, spacious bathrooms, lever door handles, and lower light switches to enhance accessibility. These design elements promote independence and freedom of movement.
Customised Solutions: We work closely with our clients to understand their unique needs and requirements. Our designs are customised to meet specific accessibility needs, ensuring that your home is tailored to you.
