We were referred to Pete through a valued contractor, and once we looked at Taylor'd Distinction' work on their website we were immediately drawn to his impressive designs. Upon meeting with Pete at our existing home, we soon felt comfortable with his charisma and expertise ideas. Pete listened to our wish list and budget and let us build a design for our family home around this. We enjoyed visiting the Taylor'd studios, you could see how Pete loved and valued his working team of designers. From the initial concept drawings, to the very impressive 3D design that Jaegan designed, you can see your dream home come to life! To see this design in it's full form really makes you appreciate the design process and being a visual person, being able to view these 3D images I was very impressed. We are very excited to start the new build of our dream home. Thank you so much Pete, Jaegan, Angus, Jane and Zoe!
Thank you guys for sharing your design experience it was great working together & we appreciate very much your kind words.

Wow, what an amazing experience we had with Pete and Taylor'd Distinctions. Pete is so passionate about what he does which is clearly displayed in his experienced and clever use of space and style. He really listened to what we wanted and came up with a design that was beautiful and the perfect use of space. After the experience we have had with Taylor'd Distinction I wouldn't ever consider looking at any other designer on the coast. The guys at Taylor'd are professional, warm and friendly, supremely talented at what they do... and more important than anything, they are as passionate about your project as you are! Thanks Pete, Jane and crew... you guys were amazing!!!
Thank you for the fabulous review. We enjoyed working on your project & can't wait to see it come to life!

After our initial conversation over the phone, we immediately felt comfortable with how Peter made us feel about being completely involved in our dream design. Peter travelled 5hrs to view our chosen residential block to ensure he had a complete picture of how our ideas and his design ideas could make the most of our unique seaside block of land. Peter provided numerous floor plans for review based on the chosen design ideas and was very accepting of changes we thought matched our requirements without compromising the overall design. Designing our home was very easy and lots of fun and Peter and his team at Taylor’d Distinction did everything they could to make our design experience as enjoyable as possible. Bring on the build process - we can’t wait.... Thank you Taylor’d Distinction.

We needed help to extend & renovate to suit our needs and accomodate multi generational living. Taylor'd Distinction were instrumental in this process. Their friendly, innovative & professional service helped us take our dream and make it an affordable reality. They have stayed with us from the begining of our house designs until the final approval from the engineers. They made this an enjoyable process and worked really hard to give us the things we wanted within our budget. I'd highly recommend Taylord Distinction to anyone seeking a reliable, friendly, trustworthy company that really believes in creating enviromentally sustainable and affordable homes and most importantly making you feel like a valued customer who is included in each step of the process.

Peter Taylor turned our idea into a reality on paper. He put his head and his heart into our project and the result speaks for itself. One of Peter's greatest strengths is that he listens and immerses himself in your concept. His researching and diplomatic nature gave our project a dream run through councils town planning and building approvals departments. Peter is easy to work with and likes challenges and working out the fine detail.

We engaged Pete Taylor of Taylord Distinction to build our dream home on the Sunshine Coast. We had many ideas and thoughts of what we wanted. Pete worked with us very collaboratively through the high level and detailed design toward a final set of plans, which got through Council promptly. He consulted well with the certifier, town planner, engineer and builder to ensure our design conformed with local rules, was practical to build and delivered on our lifestyle. Pete is obviously well connected in the home building industry on the Sunshine Coast. We highly recommend Pete Taylor and his team at Taylord Distinction for anyone looking to build their dream home. Thank you so much to Pete and his team.

Pete Taylor of Taylor'd DISTINCTION certainly gave us design concepts of style, light and space while at the same time respecting the cost, time and construction considerations. We thank Pete for his professionalism as he navigated through dealings with Council, consultants and builders. During construction he was on hand to offer advice on concept and style finish that was invaluable in achieving an optimum outcome for us. We certainly recommend Pete Taylor of Taylor'd DISTINCTION as a helpful and engaging designer who can deliver a high impact and cost effective project.

I found Taylord Distinction online and as soon as I spoke to PeteTaylor, I was convinced that he was someone I would enjoy working with. From the commencement of design to completion of build it has been nothing but a pleasure to deal with Pete and Jane. They are professional, personable, knowledgeable, caring and competent and nothing was too much trouble. Communication was excellent also, and they stressed that the project belonged to me, and their guidance, help and professional ideas turned it into reality. They set a very high standard for their industry and I recommend them without hesitation.

For over two years Pete Taylor worked closely with us designing our dream home. We found Pete to be extremely flexible and helpful and the entire process was such a nice relaxing experience. We took time gathering ideas and features we wanted in our home and Pete gave us some options too, but once we were ready to go ahead the design process was actually quite fast. Pete's technical proficiency and detailed knowledge of our local area resulted in our home reflecting our taste. To anyone in need of building designers, I definitely recommend Taylor'd Distinction!

Our property was challenging—long narrow block, close neighbours and a need to create open space but yet retain privacy. Peter Taylor rose to the challenge and then some. Peter was so obliging and a pleasure to work with. We are delighted with our home which has some lovely features such as angled hall ways to minimise a 'tunnel' look and maximise views. The atrium is a focal point as is our master bedroom which opens into a parent retreat via timber and glass sliding doors. We wanted a home that was stylish and yet very liveable and easy to maintain. Peter most certainly helped us accomplish that.

It has been indeed fun and a great pleasure to have had the assistance of Taylor'd Distinction to complete my vision for the renovating and building of my home. Every idea that I communicated to Taylor'd Distinction was easily understood and manifested by them into accurate plans which my builders could easily implement. They were insightful in how my ideas were interpreted which produced something even better than what I had first envisioned. I am thrilled to be able to recommend the services of Taylor'd Distinction to anyone who finds themselves on the personal journey and adventure of building something of both beauty and functionality.

We are so fortunate to have found the Taylor'd Distinction team. It is rare these days to encounter people who are passionate about what they do and are prepared to go more than the extra mile. We found the Taylor'd DISTINCTION experience enjoyable, creative, innovative and excellent value. Pete an excellent communicator really listened to what we wanted and our needs. We were on a very tight budget. However not once did he say, 'no you can't.' There was always a positive outcome and he promptly delivered first class drawings. For those not contemplating the services of an architect think again! Give Pete a ring you won't be sorry. We just hope we can use Taylor'd DISTINCTION again for another project in the future. Grand Designers! Please note we are not relatives, shareholders or on commission, just very grateful clients.
