We engaged Stephen Coon of SJC Lawler Architects for a substantial residential extension, including a large-scale entertaining deck with integrated alfresco kitchen and an opening louvre roof system, and were extremely impressed with the outcome. From concept design through to detailed documentation, their work demonstrated a high level of technical competence and architectural rigour.
The construction drawings were thorough, precise, and builder-friendly, which significantly reduced ambiguity during construction and supported an efficient build process. Council requirements, compliance matters, tender coordination and billing services were handled professionally and proactively.
SJC Lawler Architects provided clear communication, sound technical advice, and well-reasoned design solutions throughout the project. We would confidently recommend them to anyone. Thank you Stephen, Amy and team.
We had an excellent experience working with SJC Lawler Architects throughout our project. We had engaged them for 2 of our projects - one for a house extension and another one for a new build. From the very beginning, Mark, Stephen, and Amy were professional, organised, and genuinely committed to delivering a high-quality outcome.
The entire process felt smooth and well-coordinated. Planning was thoughtfully executed, timelines were clearly communicated, and every stage progressed in a structured and efficient manner. What really stood out was their patience and responsiveness — no question was too small, and every query was addressed promptly and thoroughly.
Their ability to guide us through complex decisions with clarity and calm professionalism made a significant difference. We always felt supported and confident that we were in capable hands.
I would highly recommend SJC Lawler Architects to anyone looking for a team that combines expertise, attention to detail, and exceptional client care.
We are delighted with our now completed home renovations. Stephen Coon was at all times courteous, helpful and available to answer our questions. His attention to detail at every stage from the concept designs, the planning stages, materials and selection of the builder were beneficial in assisting us with decision making and a great outcome. We can highly recommend SJC.
Mark Lawler Architects have been exceptional to work with. Having used them on two separate projects, I can confidently say their attention to detail, reliability, and professionalism are second to none. They consistently provide well-thought-out designs and are always prompt in getting things back to me. Compared to other consultants I’ve worked with, Mark and his team have been among the most dependable and easy to communicate with. The outcome of my most recent home exceeded expectations, and I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again in the future.
Belinda and I are so pleased we chose Mark Lawler Architects to design our custom build in Speers Point. Stephen and his team were professional and clear in their communication in all aspects of their service from design to documentation through to tender process. Stephen is highly personable and is a talented Architect. Stephen went above and beyond to ensure our development was approved with council which we are very grateful for. Would definitely engage Stephen again for future projects. We certainly will be recommending MLA to family and friends.
I would like to highly recommend SJC to anyone looking for a professional service from a down to earth team.
I have worked on projects designed by Mark, and Stephen for many years and have always been impressed how they really look after their clients behind the scenes.
Ready all the glowing reviews from happy clients is pleasing, but what they don't know is how dedicated and hard working the team at SJC are behind the scenes.
Keep up the great work guys.
Stephen Coon from SJC designed & managed the construction of our new family home which was completed in 2022. It was a long journey to plan & build a new house but with the support of Stephen & the SJC team, we now have a beautiful light-filled, very comfortable, modern family home. The end result is fantastic and we’re extremely happy. Stephen was easy to deal with, made great suggestions, and listened to our needs.
