Raywells Design Studio

Sam has given me the pleasure of photographing some of the most beautiful and inspired homes on the Gold Coast. Not only is Sam a talented designer, he and his wife Nicole are beautiful people. I have always enjoyed working along with them (and their team) and highly recommend them for their talent, vision and humanity.

Experienced, accurate and a pleasure to deal with. Sam and the team have a depth of knowledge of building design, style and most importantly what will and will not be approved by the relevant local government authority that is second to none.

I have had the pleasure of working with Sam and his team at Raywells for the past 6-7 years now, across multiple luxury home projects. From our initial client meetings, to design a scope that works with the needs and wants of the client, right through to final handover and post delivery of these homes, Sam has been the true professional to deal with. Sam and his team have a vast knowledge of the design and building industry, and always seek to push the limits with new designs ideas to advance the current trends. Sam's attention to detail, allows him to not only design, but manage a large custom project from start to finish, which gives you a sense of security as he always has yours & the clients best interest at heart. I would recommend Raywells Design Studio to anyone wanting a very professional, on trend design for their new family home or space.

" I have had the privilege of building a couple projects by the Raywells Design Studio team. I have found working with them and their plans to the heights professional standards. Their local experience is evident in their well thought out planning."

An amazing company to work for and be apart of there amazing finishes!! One of a kind builder on the gold coast.

We recently used Raywells Drafting Services for an office extension to our house. We were very satisfied with the end result. Nothing was too much trouble. Outstanding communication, honest and trustworthy service. Highly recommended to anybody in need of their services and we wouldn't hesitate in using them again. Thankyou!

Sam of Raywells Drafting services presented as an insightful professional. He listened intently, identified our options and outlined cost effective solutions which helped us understand how an integrated plan could work for us. His expertise as a building designer allowed him to present a practical design for our renovation and he dissuaded us from implementing costly, fanciful ideas. He communicated and collaborated extremely well with us regarding our selections. He presented a reasonable fee structure and met designated deadlines. His engineer and site foreman gave sensible and practical advice on how to proceed re construction. Brian & Mayumi Sheridan Benowa Qld

We contracted Sam Ray from Raywells to help us in doing plans for our dream reno. Sam is professional and creative. Sam listened to our ideas then walked through our existing house and threw up numerous alternative ideas with reasons why this could work better and what he would do here and there and why. A very quick thinker and clever designer. Sam also kept in mind our budget. With his building experience and his thorough understanding of engineering he knew what to keep (ie: windows/walls) and what we needed to do to stay close to our budget. We had 3-4 builders look over our plans and all were very impressed with the plans Sam produced for our project. We really enjoyed working with Sam and would totally recommend him to anyone looking to do a build or renovations.

We engaged Sam from Raywells Design to design our home renovation which included a second story addition and major works to the existing. Sam worked closely with us during the whole design process taking into account our personal tastes and style and guiding us to ensure everything flowed. We found him to have a wealth of knowledge and experience and he was happy to make alterations to the plans to keep us on budget. We had Sam do all our interior selections which was a huge benefit as once they were all selected it made the whole process stress free, kept us on budget and ensured the design features were seamless. Once the renovation commenced Sam Project Managed the build and kept us constantly updated with how things were progressing. He was always very approachable and he actually cared about our vision for our home and wanted the best outcome for us. The project was completed on time and within budget. We have dealt with Sam regularly over the past 18 months during the design and build and at all times he has been reliable, punctual, professional, organised and extremely easy to deal with. We are very pleased with our decision to use Raywells Design to create such a beautiful home for us which suits our family and lifestyle and would recommend them without any hesitation.
