About 8i Architects

In the modern architectural setting we have retained the old school principles of being technically equipped to work with builders, provide a hands on experience, be dependable and easily contactable.

We assign an experienced project architect that fulfills all the needs of the project from start to finish. We collaborate to scope all projects in detail up front to save on variations and costs down the track.

We don't take shortcuts, we care deeply about what we do, and we want the process to be as painless and efficient as possible to get the best outcome for our client over the life of the asset.

Innovative Design Solutions

8i Architects is a design based architectural practice specialising ininnovative, functional, cost effectiveand sustainable design solutions underpinned by precise detailed documentation resulting in well regarded constructable developments.

The firm was founded by Brisbane trained architects Hieu Nguyen B. Arch (Hons 1) and Charmaine Kai B. Arch (Hons) in 2005.

Since then, 8i Architects has grown to include project architects and architectural technical support staff to enhance the practice’s ability to provide a comprehensive service to clients.

Our focus is on design excellence and the creation of quality spaces that are unique to the site and the client.

Innovative Design implementation and effective project management is integral to 8i’s philosophy. We take the time to understand the clients needs, and work with them to brainstorm initial concepts and designs before drafting and documentation is finalised.

Collaboration with the client and other professionals is welcomed to ensure critical feedback is attained to get the best outcome. 8i design management incorporates quality solutions with a focus on control of cost over the life of the building, not just the building construction. Our programme management, accessibility, flexibility and timeliness of delivery is second to none.
