31.01.2022 This late 1800s homestead consists of three parts (from left to right): the family home at the front of the property, the entertaining room and guest accommodation in the centre volume, and the admin office facing the paddocks and stables.

24.01.2022 Our Lady of Perpetual Help. A Spanish Colonial style church in Coonamble. I love religious buildings because they are beautifully designed and built by communities to connect and are rarely altered. This one stood out on a recent trip through NSW. . . .... . . #ruraldesign #church #churchbuilding #churchbuildings #community #coonamble #belltower #belltowers #ruraldevelopment #greendoor #greendoors #ruralnsw #ruralaustralia See more

20.01.2022 Old Kiama Fire Station 1915 Now art gallery. . . In 1910, a survey of the fire district was undertaken by Divisional Inspector G.Dadd. He reported:... "Kiama is one of the best towns of the State......but the station is too small. A larger station and light (horse drawn) hose carriage with curricle ladders is needed because of the number of two storey buildings and the hilly terrain".

17.01.2022 The tour continues! Swipe to see who’s stowed away in the kitchen of one of Centennial Park’s federation heritage houses. The joinery and cabinets show the signature stylings of a federation home - Intricate timberwork, decorative windows, views out onto romantic verandahs - in modern fashion. The finishes were chosen to be more contemporary than the heritage facade and front of house to be robust enough for the daily activities of a young family while still feeling like a p...lace to entertain in. Tell us what you think in the comments: What is your priority? The perfect space to host dinner and cocktail parties? Or a place that can hold up against the kids.

16.01.2022 Its interesting to see the architecture of a building when the verandah has been temporarily removed during restoration. Swipe to see the beautiful original Common Bond brick pattern. The intermittent header course where the brick ends are visible tells us that it is a 230mm thick brick wall without a cavity. This is a small farm cottage which we are modifying to include a new modern sitting room. #australianfarmhouse #countrycottage #brickcottage #galvanizedmetal #galvanizedroof #farmhousestyle #countrystyle #ruralnewsouthwales #ruralaustralia @ Yarrowyck, New South Wales, Australia

15.01.2022 From the front door to back terrace, this house feels like you're coming home. Whether you live there or not. We have a long history with this federation house having renovated it the first time with the previous owners, with whom we restored the facade and interior, and again with the current owners, who were looking to remodel a more modern back of the house with connected kitchen, dining, patio and new pool. Swipe to the right to check out the back of the house

12.01.2022 Greek architecture taught me that the column is where the light is not, and the space between is where the light is. It is a matter of no-light, light, no-light, light. - Louis Kahn Louis Kahn regarded light as the giver of all presences and it is easy to see why. It is the architect’s role to play with light- where its absence weighs heavy on the facade of a building to the morning light that streams through a breakfast room.... In the picture above is a closer look at the shadows cast by the afternoon highlight as they draw across the moldings and columns of this deco home. #artdeco #luxury #artdecoarchitecture #artdecostyle #artdecohome #artdecohome #luxurylifestyle #luxuryliving #luxuryhome #whitehouse #whitehouses #sydney #sydneyarchitecture #sydneyarchitects #newsouthwales #nsw #louiskhan

11.01.2022 A new Colonial Homestead in rural NSW. Influenced by European builders who came to Australia in the 19th century. A large North facing room is an essential part of living in the mild NSW climate. ... Adding a terrace over for the upper rooms allows residents outdoor living with elevated district prospect. A victim of the COVID pandemic we trust our client will eventually have this home.

08.01.2022 Kiama Post Office NSW Colonial Architect James Barnet, completed 1878. Barnet worked as builder for Edmund Blackett before eventually becoming Colonial Architect. His name is on a lot of really cool classically inspired buildings around NSW. Barnets Wiki page is worth a look.

06.01.2022 Open fireplace in the dining room of this Australian Regency project as glimpsed from the entry hall.

05.01.2022 Kiama council chambers opened 1915. At that time there were 400-500 houses in the township. A big issue at the time was dust created by 60-70 cartloads of bluestone from nearby mines to the harbour. It had recently been resolved with the construction of a tram line.

03.01.2022 Beautiful light in the entry hall of our Hatton Homestead project near Warren in country NSW. It is always such a joy to work with our country clients and create a sanctuary in the bush. #entryhall #timberstaircase #countryliving #countryhomestead #sanctuary #comeinfromtheheat #frontdoorsidelights #traditionalarchitecture #classicstyle

27.12.2021 Another view of this gorgeous Art Deco Style residence! Swipe down to read more about the project We had the good fortune to work in association with Michael Suttor Architects in 2018 to bring this wonderful villa to life. Our lead architect, Michael Bell, worked closely with Michael Sutter in the early stages of his career, a relationship that continues with a shared passion for period architecture. The stylized geometric aesthetic of the facade continues throughout the i...nterior of the house in a seamlessly beautiful cohesion of outdoor to indoor. We wish we could show! However, the happiness of our client is our utmost priority and the interiors remain their private domain. In pursuit of humanity in our work, we do our best to keep a sympathetic perspective in harbouring both close working relationships and in executing a timeless result.

25.12.2021 Swipe to the right and take a look around the grounds of the Tyreel Homestead. We’ve worked some interior magic in renovating this lovely heritage home, giving the facade a face-lift and a completely new lease of life inside. Interiors coming soon!

09.12.2021 Double tap if you were looking forward to these interior photos of the Thomas Hamel beach house in Killcare. This project was inspired in part by Michael’s childhood home- a Pettit and Sevitt Lowline house in Melbourne, hence the exposed dark timber ceiling joists. In collaboration with Thomas Hamel, the project found a balance between modern forms and more heritage accents. Comment below what you think. Could you live here?... #michaelbellarchitects #californiamodern

06.12.2021 Double tap if you were looking forward to these interior photos of the Cookhamel residence. We gave great attention in bringing warmth to a space that threatened to be moody and dark. In choosing to expose structural beams and balancing modern forms with more heritage accents, such as the fireplace depicted, we were able to bring in more light via modern openings and a generous light shelf....
