LIME Architects is an architectural practice that is passionate about great designs and practical solutions and is based in the heart of Manly.
We marry clever design with practical solutions that are buildable, environmentally sensible, and cost effective. The extra you invest in good design and beyond just drafting will be evident and appreciated at our first design presentation.
Our business approach:
1. Listen to what are the key issues our clients wish to achieve then deliver unique design solutions.
2. Well considered design provides a better building lifestyle and ultimately higher resale value.
3. We offer solutions beyond client expectations.
Only 6 % of Australians commission an architect to take control of their residential building design. The remaining 94% elect to engage a building designer, saving the equivalent of the cost of a top of the range dishwasher. A good architect can save three times their fees worth by clever and efficient layouts and a hierarchy of item choices.
The 94% of Australians who engage a building designer, in many cases, spend their time and their hard earned money relying on a builder to solve poor planning layouts. Once construction commences, it is the builder the 94% relies on to pick up the pieces when they realise the layout is disappointing.
If you realise too late you have a building that is poorly designed, you will have ended your relationship with your designer and have to rely on their builder to throw good money in rectifying poorly considered layouts, inappropriate external claddings and possibly poor quality fittings and items.
You are entrusting your designer with one of, if not the single most important financial investment in your life. If you are going to live or work in a building, then choosing clever architects, is a financial investment not an expense.
Real benefits are in the resale profit but more importantly, better building lifestyle. It's about giving priority to those items that matter and saving on those items that are low in the list of must haves. We promise to guide you on the merits of how to make these choices.
Building Lifestyle. We refer to this term often, and you rarely hear this mentioned by other architects let alone building designers. What is this?
A great example is:
You are into day one of your holiday in a wonderful holiday house/apartment. You are overcome with a feeling of being relaxed. You love the feel of the place, the choice of materials, the colour combinations and the practical relaxed layout. Just then you announce to yourself and those within earshot,"Why can't we live like this?" You are experiencing that resort experience which you'd love to have more often. What you experience is the touch from someone who knows great and simple design.
The answer?
Simple. You don't need to go on more holidays to relax. Just imagine the final building result and invest in good design and have that resort feel and wonderfully clever layout at home.
Now you are thinking like the 6% of Australians.

Who are we
We are a Building Design practice with proven expertise in modern and cutting-edge
techniques geared to deliver you a set of comprehensive building services to the
highest standard. Our friendly and experienced team will journey with you, through
to make that home of your dreams come alive.
The range of services we offer include architectural design, interior designs,
landscape designs, hydraulics and structural engineering. We also undertake
reports including planning and BASIX. We take pride in looking after your entire
building process from the outset where the initial planning and briefing would
happen, through detailed design development, technical documentations to on-site
administration to completion. Thereafter we will go that extra mile to offer post
completion analyses. The expertise we are renown for is the expression in our
buildings of play of light upon the natural beauty of materials.
Our Philosophy
At OPSS Design & Building Workshop our firm belief is that the way our
surroundings are expressed directly influences the quality of our lives, may it be our
home, workplace or a public space. We acknowledge that architecture emerged and
evolved over the years to satisfy needs of people. By being sensitive and responsive
to the culture and climate of a space, architecture has the power to transcend the
physical into the spiritual realm. We believe that therein lies the true appeal of
designers of this modern era. We strive to be leaders and proponents of those beliefs.
We endeavour to create elegant and innovative designs that meet the requirements of
our valued clients, while ensuring all developmental guidelines and developmental
guidelines and recommendations are fully met. No matter how big the scale of the
project we undertake, we will exercise due diligence and attention to detail. That is
our promise to our clients.
As professionals we have a dual responsibility, to the clients we serve on the one
hand and equally to all others who will become users of our designs and
constructions. We ensure all this by reviewing and re-reviewing many times all
projects till we get it absolutely right.
Our Approach
We at OPSS Design & Building Workshop work collaboratively, by bringing together
owners, users and the professionals to share a wealth knowledge, to achieve great
results and enhanced solutions. We consistently seek creative opportunities within
projects we undertake.
After the initial meeting with the client and the brief, we deliver the concept design
and then proceed on to complete DA documentation through our team’s liaising with
the Local Council or Private Certifying Authority. We also undertake tendering on
client’s behalf and then liaise with the builders to see construction to completion.

At Studio Residere, we believe good architecture should feel lived-in, purposeful, and quietly powerful.
Our name comes from the Latin residere — “to dwell” — a reminder that every home should invite comfort, presence, and longevity.
We design with clarity and restraint, using natural light, honest materials, and intelligent space planning. Each project — new build or renovation — reflects both your personality and the unique character of its site.
Our approach is collaborative and context-driven. We listen, observe, and design with intention. Whether on a tight urban block or a wide rural landscape, our goal to create homes that support everyday life and quietly elevate it remains.
Working with a registered architect with a decade of experience and passion in the residential sector, you can be assured the the collaborative guidance with lead to your dream home.
