Design: Six Degrees Architects. This project explores a new model of medium density housing that utilises disused, contaminated land for public and private use. The site (a former tip) is remediated, and developed into a new public park with ten generous town houses at its rear.
Design: Alexandra Buchanan Architecture. This residential project at Mermaid Waters on the Gold Coast transforms a dated, single storey brick spec-home into a light-filled, contemporary family beach house.
Design: Alexandra Buchanan Architecture. This bold contemporary home perches high above the Yarra River at North Warrandyte on a raised plateau nestled amongst dense native bushland
Design: MSG Architecture. Simple materials, strategic windows and a transition space between old and new make this little add on perform well beyond it’s modest footprint.
Design: James Stockwell Architect. Built high on the amphitheatre surrounding Louttit Bay, the Louttit house challenges the typical expectations of a renovated home with bold, yet sensitive addition the Lorne streetscape.
Design: Seeley Architects. Quietly impressive and looking as if it belongs in the coastal vegetation, the Ingoldsby House is a sensitive response to a coastal site that required special consideration.
Architects: Sans-Arc Studio. Functional and rational, the addition is open yet inclusive – a singular communal space. Opening to the north, it pays homage to the sun, creating a light-filled, happy space.
Architects: McBride Charles Ryan. The brief for this new school building included a variety of general learning areas, provision for the senior year teachers and a science centre. The circular shaped plan had an appropriate civic quality based on the school’s original masterplan.
Design: B.E Architecture. Set on 100 acres in coastal Victoria, this site was bare of vegetation except for a 100-year-old row of Cypress trees. The design was based around a series of sunken walled courtyards to create immediately useable outdoor areas in the windswept environment.
Design: Branch Studio Architects. The brief for a new master-suite consisting of a bedroom, an ensuite and incorporated robes/ancillary spaces asked for a strong connection to the landscape and the various garden areas.
Design: Peter Winkler Architects. The site is within a quiet court with a walking track down to a secluded beach. The brief was for modest timber dwelling.
Design: Philip Stejskal Architecture
Beyond the central courtyard, a single car garage doubles as an outdoor dining space and a first level master bedroom currently offers lodging for an extended family member complete with private roof garden.
Design: Philip Stejskal Architecture. Our brief was to add a double garage, augment storage, reconfigure the existing master bedroom, increase the size of existing minor bedrooms, and refurbish existing bathrooms.
Architects: Studio-Gram. A man that brought Venice to California served as the inspiration for bringing fine Italian Coffee and bespoke pastries to Adelaide, all found within a shop that seemingly has a split personality.
Architects: Studio-Gram. Mr. Goodbar, a nod to the old world, a smoky, yet elegant bar drawing inspirations from the roots of blues and soul, and all things New Orleans. A good place to sin.
Design: Philip Stejskal Architecture. This building is rectangular and has been carved out to respond to sun, wind and views. The materials proposed reflect the familiar local combination of brick and corrugated iron and the clients’ desire to achieve an industrial aesthetic externally.
Design: Porebski Architects. Located on the shore of Pearl Beach, an area where the bush meets the coast, the Block House is a secluded escape designed to exist in harmony with its surroundings.
