Marcus Smit Architects

Marcus kept tight control of me and steered us with the build and refurb of an old building to create the Elgin Railway Market. Without him it would not be the magnificent icon it is today.

It is really important for an architect to have good rapport with a client and Marcus has really impressed us with his ability to understand our ideas. It’s been a thrilling experience to design our new home with him and we look forward to the finished project.

We couldn't be happier. Marcus's designs are modern, timeless and functional. He took time to understand our needs and was very open to ideas and suggestions when it came to the design. He and his team, especially Ansu, were also highly efficient and organised. Our project was concluded within budget and on time, and we are incredibly happy with the design. I would highly recommend Marcus Smit Architects.

Working with this exceptional architect for our renovation project is an absolute pleasure. From the start, Marcus's expertise and attention to detail has been evident as he skillfully transformed our ideas into a practical and beautiful design. We look forward to the finished project.

Marcu has a keen feel for the area and surrounds that he is working in. He honestly considers the client's wishes and takes care to incorporate those into his plans. From our first meeting, to finalised plans to overseeing the building project with a meticulous eye for detail, Marcus was with us every step of the way in building our family home. I would recommend him time and again.

Marcus made a very pleasant and creative proposal for our new sunroom. It blended very much in in our existing house. Working with his professional team was very easy and straight forward. He also came up with the very quaint design of our new planters. Based on that he designed our entrance garden new and recommended a very good landscaper for the realisation. The attached pictures show the outcome very nicely.

I cannot speak more highly of Marcus, Bennu, and everyone at Marcus Smit Architects who had anything to do with creating my DREAM HOME ! These brothers make a formidable team, each one bringing his own talents to the drawing table. Marcus' creativity and eye for detail are mind-blowing. I cannot count the amount of WOW reactions we get from our visitors. Thank you so much for making a lifelong dream come true !

Marcus Smit Architects were the appointed architects in the design of our new offices. They were also the appointed project manager and ensured that the building process went smoothly. This was the second time that we have used Marcus Smit Architects and would recommend them to any body!

Working with Marcus Smit Architects on building our dream house has been an absolute delight. Not only is the design wonderful, but the team's organisational and communication skills are top-notch. I can recommend their services without hesitation.

My wife and I first hired Marcus and his team for a large veranda addition to our home. It was a relatively small, residential project - too small for an architect, we thought. A few turned us town. Marcus didn't and treated us with sincerity, honesty and respect. Years later, we hired his firm to design and project manage major alternations to a large new residential property we'd acquired. His ideas were not only completely original, but also true to the style of the existing architecture. As with any building project, a long road had to be negotiated and we felt in good hands throughout - and even years after the project had been completed. We absolutely recommend Marcus and his firm.
