Architecture and Interior Design Portfolio


With 9 years experience in the field, this serves as an online portfolio of conceptual and completed work, both my own, as well as those undertaken during previous employment.


A mixed selection of sketches, concepts, technical drawings and completed projects.

client reference

"Every day when I walk into my practice rooms, I am grateful that Darylle guided the project. Her innate understanding of space allowed for an expert layout that functions so beautifully! Having someone as calm and confident as Darylle overseeing the design allowed me to enjoy the process. I knew she had a clear vision and because of this, I had confidence to bring her my ideas knowing she would be open and honest about whether they worked or not. Her decisiveness and prompt problem solving kept the project moving. I was blown away at the quality over quantity approach to the design that Darylle Iris The Studio had, and in the
end, what a statement it made. Knowing when to push hard on a style element and when to pair back is yet another of her irreplaceable service offerings.
Darylle’s impeccable taste and exquisite style has brought to life rooms I am so proud to welcome my patients into.  "

client reference

"Renovating your home from a distance is daunting but Darylle Iris. The Studio epitomizes how the architectural process should be. Attentive, efficient and with timely and professional communication, she made the process simple and painless. l am fully supportive of Darylle, because, quite simply, she gave us the best renovation we could ever have hoped for. She got to know us, and then she helped us fulfil our dream. I will gladly recommend her vision and ethos to any prospective client. Darylle has something special to offer, not just in terms of architecture, design, or structure, but also in terms of values, connection and in attaining the best solution for her client, to deliver a stunning final project."

DESIGN PHILOSOPHY

My greatest vision, and the glue that holds my architectural pursuits together, is to genuinely reconnect my clients to the world around them. I mean in a visceral, grounding, humbling way. Whether that be to a power greater than themselves, to their natural surroundings or to a deeper sense of purpose, SPACE is simply a portal into a life founded in intention and meaning.
