Meet the team
Architects & Co was started by two architects Felice and Tamara. Felice is now leading the practice, taking on progressive projects and fostering new partnerships to elevate the firm within the industry
Felice Burrows
Director / Architect
Felice is the dreamer, the doer, the extrovert, the weekend adventurer, the slightly left of centre, and the non-conformist. Intuitive, bold, and hands-on, Felice once left Perth to climb a mountain in Russia before moving to India where she designed and project managed the construction of a brand new school in an undeveloped area— and completely thrived. With over 10 years experience and an interest in the art of construction, Felice has excelled in diverse projects spanning hospitality, commercial, residential, government, and educational sectors.
Her distinctive strength lies in her holistic perspective on projects. She adeptly amalgamates project intricacies with client requisites and forward-looking insight, resulting in a coherent and distinct culmination. At the heart of Felice’s architectural philosophy is a human focus, channelling design to its elemental essence. Her enthusiasm is dedicated to utilizing design’s intricate balance of complexity and simplicity to cultivate inclusiveness. Felice’s acumen extends to an earnest comprehension of clients and their needs, underpinned by her hands-on engagement.

Our approach
01. Discovery
We invest time into understanding you first; your needs, vision, concerns, budget, existing built form, community, values and environment.
02. Concept
We turn the insights from the discovery phase into an initial concept which aims to resolve hurdles and capitalise on opportunities.
03. Refine
Here is where we can refine the ideas to ensure we deliver the best possible result. It provides the foundation for the final design.
04. Design
We create an on-point strategic design, and consult engineers, suppliers, and builders, to allow for a seamless building phase.
05. Transfer
We help negotiate the builder’s timeframes, methodologies, and special requirements, ensuring everything is in place for commencement.
06. Build
We’ll access claims, attend to queries, ensure the project is running on time and budget, coordinate inspections and ensure the end product is perfect.
07. Finish
A fine finish is the essential cherry on top. We help you take advantage of other opportunities, consulting on suppliers, lighting, and furniture.
08. Celebrate
After a long and sometimes challenging project, we can cheers a glass and revel in the delight of your newly transformed space.
What our clients say
“I was renovating and I needed someone to bring big ideas, project manage it all, and help me invest wisely and not over capitalise. Ultimately I needed a studio who could provide an end-to-end project delivery with a functional design that didn’t involve massive changes to the existing layout. When I met and discussed my brief with Architects&Co I felt we were definitely on the same page. They were a great team with very complementary skills. They were personable and stylish with amazing spreadsheets. They understood my brief, offered great design ideas, and made great on-budget recommendations, which I still love 2 years on!”
