Alistair McLean is the principal of Secret Design Studio, a small boutique design consultancy focused on mid-century design including architecture and interiors, His practice, while based in Melbourne, helps clients Australia-wide with design advice that is sympathetic to their mid-century homes throughout his Dr. Retro consultations.
In this episode, we ask Alistair questions such as:
1. What has been your experience when people buy a property to detonate and discover that the budget they had planned to rebuild is beyond their means?
2. What characteristics of a property are people looking for if they want to detonate?
3. How can we reimagine the property as a renovator if we have the key fundamentals of what is required?
4. What are the main characteristics we should look for if there is a possibility to renovate?
