20.01.2022 Happy sigh of relief as our North Fitzroy House makes it through VCAT unscathed. . A modest renovation for a young family of four, this is our second project where a music studio situated on the rear boundary is used to activate and encourage the garden as a central social space. . #melbournedesign #melbournearchitects #australiandesign #renovation #victorianarchitecture #victorianarchitects #northfitzroy #vcat

18.01.2022 First project of the year. Substantial beach front dwelling with courtyard and pool. Constructed using local materials by local builders. Delivered on time and on budget. Gone by high tide. . . #beachhouse #beachlife

18.01.2022 We are looking forward to getting our Warrandyte House built in 2019. . Perched on an escarpment and overlooking the Yarra Valley, this home gradually steps down to follow the contours of the land.

17.01.2022 One of our first hospitality projects, The Bishop of Ostia bar sits discreetly behind the original dilapidated facade and roller door. A low, snaking blockwork wall suggests a variety of informal seating whilst the pivoting timber windows beyond provide an interactive public threshold. . Drew Echberg / Rebecca Newman

Great site, trusting clients, patient builder all helped in the transformation of an ageing and unremarkable structure into a multi-generational beach house for our times. . .Builder: PM Versteegen & Sons .

09.01.2022 Industry Beans, 2014. One of our first hospitality projects explored the enduring preoccupation we have with the threshold. A roller door winds up to reveal a hidden cafe in an industrial context. With a focus on economic materials, texture introduces a rythmn and a language, transparency invites light and warmth, operable panels say 'hello!' and a bench seat in the sun is just too hard to resist. .
