Inspire. Stimulate. Delight.

When we’re not designing or creating, we’re thinking. A lot. We love to think and Lisa loves to write. Here, she shares her latest musings with you.

    It is quite surreal seeing something we had envisaged for so long and in such detail come to life and the house has exceeded our high expectations in terms of look and liveability. It is an incredibly warm house but also lovely and cool in summer. We would unreservedly recommend Lisa Day of Donnell & Day Architecture and have done so on several occasions since our build.
