Claire Cardwell - Architectural Designer (Blue Designs)

Blue Designs is an Architectural Design practice established in 2005 by Claire Cardwell.  

I have decided to rebrand and operate under my own name.

I am an architectural designer who specialises in designing modern family homes with good design which will enhance your life.

I also design and modernise homes and heritage homes without losing their character.  Additions and Alterations are also quite a challenge!

If you have an existing structure that is 'As Built' (or Illegal) and you have no plans then I can assist you with getting Municipal Approvals.

I have long established ties with Council, Town Planners and Couriers which enable me to offer prompt municipal approvals.  Blue Designs is based in Johannesburg. 

In my spare time I am a writer (The Naked Architect) and an artist.  The Naked Architect is blog I started to 'lay bare' the mysteries of Architecture and Planning here in Joburg.
