23.01.2022 Work experience student, Aidan, has spent this week with us getting a taste of the architectural and construction world. He has spent his time in the office designing his dream home and using ArchiCAD to model it in 3D. Today he visited his first construction site to see the progress of the Bunbury Senior High School New Cafeteria Building. We hope you enjoyed your time with us Aiden.

23.01.2022 Earlier this week the KLA team headed to the pub for a quiz night. We came 2nd! #smartarchitects #teamwork #bonding

22.01.2022 We are proud to be helping the City of Bunbury with their mission to make Bunbury the Most Accessible Regional City in Australia. We have recently helped modify the entrance path at the Bunbury Regional Art Gallery to be compliant with the Design for Access and Mobility Australian Standard. The path is now less steep making access in to the building much easier for all.

21.01.2022 Next time you are in Collie, why not check out the Collie Art Gallery. Designed by Kent Lyon Architect in 2013 and built by local Collie firm White Building Company, it was the culmination of 40+ years of lobbying, planning and fundraising. The use of rammed earth, timber and metal cladding celebrate the vernacular of rural Australia. https://www.collieartgallery.org.au/about-us/

21.01.2022 We've redesigned our website to show off our portfolio of educational, residential and cultural architecture. We've also included a new section to help out those thinking about building. Come take a look! www.kentlyon.com.au #bunbury #architect #architecture #southwesternaustralia #bunburybuilder #busselton #bunburybusiness

20.01.2022 The finishing touches are being put up - perforated aluminium decorative screens! This was a collaborative effort between Kent Lyon Architect, the Stirling Street Arts Centre and Metrix Group. Stirling Street Arts Centre graphic designer, Bee, designed the imagery using handprints from various members of the Arts Centre along with a tree illustration which will wrap around the south west corner. The tree image pays homage to the original established trees planted on the grounds in the early 1900s by students who are still in the Bunbury community.

20.01.2022 Were looking for an architect to join us in Bunbury for an immediate start!

20.01.2022 A good write up of our Bunbury Senior High project. We’re glad the students are excited!

19.01.2022 It's great seeing our projects reach practical completion. https://thewest.com.au//stirling-street-arts-centre-redeve

18.01.2022 What a great day! Had the City of Bunbury Heritage Awards and received the Award for Excellence in Heritage Building Design and Conservation Work - Commercial as joint winners on two projects we we're architects on - one for Lyric Theatre (former) the other for the Solicitor's Rooms (former) & WA Bank (former). Thank you to the custodians of the two properties it was a pleasure working with you. Also congratulations to Professor (friend & client) Adrian Egan for his Award for Outstanding Heritage Promotions & Kerry Doak for her Award for Excellence in Heritage Building Design and Conservation Work - Residential. Well done to the City of Bunbury for the initiative and for receiving the award for Heritage Practices by a Local Government on Friday night at the 2018 WA Heritage Awards in Perth!

18.01.2022 Now you see it, now you don't. Demolition works are underway in the Bunbury Senior High School courtyard with the old canteen building having been knocked down in anticipation of the new canteen and cafeteria currently under construction. The courtyard area will be landscaped to provide a fresh new space for students.

18.01.2022 A couple of projects to keep us busy next year!

17.01.2022 What a difference the finishing touches make.

17.01.2022 Great to be involved and thanks to Breeanna Tirana @ Collie Mail for the write up!

16.01.2022 Fantastic to see it come to fruition and well done to fellow Acumen Content Review Panel members, it's been such a rewarding experience getting to volunteer with colleagues from around the nation!

14.01.2022 The new cafeteria building at Bunbury Senior High School is close to completion! The exterior is slowly being unveiled with the removal of the scaffolding. Internally, walls tiles and the Autex acoustic ceiling panels have been installed.

14.01.2022 Recently Premier Mark McGowan announced a South-West school upgrade boost as part of WA’s Covid-19 Recovery Plan. We are thrilled to have been awarded the contract to deliver the architectural services for the new additions at Australind Senior High School, with a project budget of $15 million. For the next 3 years we will be working along side the Department of Finance to design and over see the construction of a new classroom block and specialist facilities including workshops and a STEM classroom. The project also includes relocation of the dental therapy centre from the existing high school location to the neighbouring Australind Primary School. https://www.mediastatements.wa.gov.au//South-West-school-u

13.01.2022 We've been playing with colour again this week. We used Danpalon coloured polycarbonate sheets during our initial design and build of Rapids Landing Primary School. A couple of years on and the school has come back to us with a request for covered walkways. We are excited to be able to use Danpalon sheets again to inject more colour into the school.

13.01.2022 Our Cafeteria project at Bunbury Senior High School is now complete. The Cafeteria is operating and the courtyard area has been re-landscaped. Check out some of these finished photos!

12.01.2022 It's hard to believe but we are halfway through the build of the new cafeteria at Bunbury Senior High School. Currently the roof sheeting is being installed as well as the steel framing for the insulated panel wall system. The building will be finished ready for the start of the next school year.

09.01.2022 THINKING OF BUILDING? What do I want to build? What am I allowed to build? What can I afford to build?... Check out the Thinking of Building page on our website for an overview of the architectural process and our Feasibility Study option. https://www.kentlyon.com.au/thinking-of-building

09.01.2022 An overall view of our finished building and courtyard. All ready for the start of school this year.

08.01.2022 And that’s a wrap for 2020. The KLA team finished off the working year with some social lawn bowls and luncheon. Our office is now closed until Monday 4th January so our staff can rest and recharge for what is sure to be a busy 2021! We’d like to thank all our clients and colleagues for working with us this year. Wishing you all a Happy Christmas and a safe and Happy New Year.

03.01.2022 We love using colour in our designs. We believe it is a fundamental part of good design and shouldn't be regarded as an afterthought.

03.01.2022 One of our recent projects has been officially opened this week.

03.01.2022 Think Brick Awards Presentation #legomasterpiececompetition #thinkbrockawards2018 #greatestawards #thinkbrickawards #melbourne #threelittlepigs

01.01.2022 The first step towards the completion of the Stirling Street Art Centre Redevelopment Design #architecture #design #redevelopment #kentlyonarchitect #smithconstructionsbunbury #workinprogress

01.01.2022 Together with the City of Busselton and CLPM Heritage Restoration we have been bringing life back to The Old Butter Factory in Busselton. Subject to a fire in March 2018, the building requires restoration works to be completed before the museum can open to the public again. With the building being on the State Register of Heritage Places, the works need to preserve the Heritage of the Butter Factory whilst complying with current building regulations. Recently, intumescent paint has been applied to all steel work and specialty plasterboard will be installed shortly to provide the required fire rating.

01.01.2022 Progress shots form yesterday's site meeting for the remedial works underway. We are targeting accessibility throughout the campus, updating staff and student amenities and creating an entrance statement to the campus.

01.01.2022 Structural steel is being erected at Bunbury Senior High School today. Together with Perkins Builders we are delivering a new student cafeteria which links to the existing courtyard and floats above the change rooms and oval below. Check out the chunky steelwork - 460mm steel beams and 400x400mm steel columns with the tallest column a whopping 8.7m tall!
