About By Piece
Hello, I'm Veronika, I appreciate you finding the website. This is my opportunity to explain a little about how By Piece came about and how I can help homeowners in Canberra to ensure everyone gets the best possible advice across all facets of design and implementation.
My approach blends architectural insight with practical problem-solving, drawing on years spent working across residential interiors, boutique developments and heritage-sensitive renovations. Whether it's rethinking flow, refining finishes or unlocking natural light, good design is less about trends—and more about practical and bespoke choices that last.
Why By Piece?
After working in design-led practices for years, I recognised a genuine need for renovation services that felt more personal, less overwhelming, and grounded in both aesthetics and functionality.
With By Piece, I wanted to offer something approachable but deeply considered—a design and renovation service that helps clients feel guided, heard, and excited about what's possible.
From full home renovations Canberra-wide, to targeted kitchen renovations in Canberra, every project starts with listening and is shaped by the people who will live in the space—not just by drawings on paper.
People do endless searches online for ‘home extension near me’, or ‘small home renovations in Canberra’, trying to find the right advice. If you are reading this, you have already found the right person to guide you through the coming phases.

By Piece reflects the process: considered, collaborative, and built in layers. We work together piece by piece—not just rushing to a result, but assembling homes that feel right.
No matter the size of the project, I aim to bring warmth, order and a sense of “it just works” to every home renovation Canberra-wide—Veronika Lisman.
