25.01.2022 We always salaveg bricks from demolition and reuse in new walls or landscaping. Often we simply top up the old bricks with a mix of new bricks. Pictured here are old Sydney Eastwood commons with new Bowral Brick 'Bowral Brown' #foralltobe #custommadfindingplace #placehunting #findingplace #findingyourplace #australiandesign #australianarchitecture #sydneyarchitecture #architecture #australianhomes #renovation #dreamhome #homeideas #ethicalarchitecture #emergingarchitects

23.01.2022 We’ve been working on a house adjoining a national park and considering ways to make places for birds as well as people. New York’s High Line does that perfectly with this inspiring work by Sarah Sze #foralltobe #custommadfindingplace... #placehunting #findingplace #findingyourplace #australiandesign #australianarchitecture #sydneyarchitecture #architecture #australianhomes #renovation #dreamhome #homeideas #ethicalarchitecture #emergingarchitects See more

20.01.2022 Whilst working at the Australian Design Centre, Claire met so many amazing artists & designers. A very special pair are Lyn Balzer and Tony Perkins whose experimental material inspire her daily practice. Pictured here is their work ‘Scented Intoxication’. The gallery was filled with objects and smells inspired by two places in NSW - one bush, the other a coastal rock platform #foralltobe #custommadfindingplace #placehunting #findingplace #findingyourplace #australiandesign #australianarchitecture #sydneyarchitecture #architecture #ethicalarchitecture #emergingarchitects #custommadmates

18.01.2022 I’m going to say something controversial We can’t stand black taps. Look, if you can afford brass tapware that’s awesome, do it, but otherwise chrome is cool. Black finish leaves fingerprints, shows up oil and it scratches. Not cool.

16.01.2022 Houses become homes when they are filled with family + personality. Our home is filled with art, it's part of our home's character. We installed picture rails in the corncies just so we could have everything quickly and easily. There's not much space left and Guy Bourdin's print from 1979 is the second piece you see when we arrive home. Cheeky & colourful! #foralltobe #custommadfindingplace #placehunting #findingplace #findingyourplace #australiandesign #australianarchitecture #sydneyarchitecture #architecture #australianhomes #renovation #dreamhome #homeideas #ethicalarchitecture #emergingarchitects

15.01.2022 Looking up to the sky through a circular skylight at Jemima's Place. Made from tinted blue polished stainless steel, the skylight reflects the sky in multiple planes. #foralltobe #custommadfindingplace #placehunting #findingplace #findingyourplace #australiandesign #australianarchitecture #sydneyarchitecture #architecture #australianhomes #renovation #dreamhome #homeideas #ethicalarchitecture #emergingarchitects

12.01.2022 We’ve got a lovely beach house nearly ready for handover in Manly. Our favourite time is coming back to the homes we’ve helped build, and seeing them filled with loved possessions. Here’s one we prepared earlier - Jemima’s Place. #foralltobe #custommadfindingplace #placehunting #findingplace #findingyourplace #australiandesign #australianarchitecture #sydneyarchitecture #architecture #australianhomes #renovation #dreamhome #homeideas #ethicalarchitecture #emergingarchite...cts See more

08.01.2022 We love aluminium window frames. They’re durable and thin. But we’re not going to use them anymore. Aluminium is made from bauxite and the embodied energy of aluminium is 10 TIMES that of steel. So that’s a nope from us. ... Timber frames for us. There’s a bit more maintenance, but from now, we're making resource-smart decisions. #foralltobe CLEVER #custommadfindingplace #placehunting #findingplace #findingyourplace #australiandesign #australianarchitecture #sydneyarchitecture #architecture #ethicalarchitecture #emergingarchitects #custommadmates

07.01.2022 This year we’re going to work hard to do less. We want to use fewer materials, design smaller spaces and try really hard to keep as much of original buildings as possible. But how can an old building be updated for modern life with minimal alterations? So, we've decided to focus on repair. It's going to be hard because it's easier and cheaper for contractors to make new spaces. But we’re excited to challenge ourselves and our work mates. ... We’ll keep sharing how we are going - what’s easy, and what’s super hard. Who’s with us? #foralltobe resource-smart #custommadfindingplace #findingplace #findingyourplace #australiandesign #australianarchitecture #sydneyarchitecture #architecture #ethicalarchitecture #emergingarchitects See more

07.01.2022 We worked on this exhibition with Australian Design Centre - it's such a great dive into ideas around reuse and repair. If you're around Tamworth, it opens tonight and is on until end of October.

06.01.2022 One of our favourite things about Australian hardwood is the variety of colour across one species.
