25.01.2022 Recognised as one of the finest buildings of the twentieth century, this freestanding sculpture of spherical roofs and curved shapes never fails to inspire. These photographs by Daniel Boud capture an architectural icon currently at rest , whilst undergoing maintenance and renewal.

25.01.2022 Our aim with every renovation, like this one to an Edwardian home in Middle Park, is to respect the original structure and the local building fabric, while creating a home thats perfectly attuned to contemporary life. With a new build, we want to replace and refresh the streetscape with a home of significantly better design and build quality than what was there before. We apply care, consideration and professionalism to optimise your property and deliver a home youl...l enjoy for many, many years to come.

23.01.2022 WORK IN PROGRESS Front house slab poured and complete for our 3 x townhouse project in Seaview Crescent, Black Rock. We believe the existing streetscape is precious. ... With every new build, we aim to replace what was there previously with a home or homes of superior design and build quality. We consider context, local conditions and existing neighbourhood building fabric very carefully. Keeping things safe on site, with worker numbers kept to a minimum.

21.01.2022 Our new build in Murrumbeena is almost complete. Built in a street largely comprised of Californian Bungalows, this project breezed through planning approval as we considered the existing streetscape carefully, ensuring this new home was in harmony with its neighbours in terms of scale, setbacks and materials. The benefits of this meant we saved our clients considerable time and money by tackling the planning approval process with a professional approach and a clever,... deceptively simple solution. At the rear, this home rises subtlety to a second storey behind the roof line, (ie. not visible from the street and therefore with respect to the surrounding streetscape), creating a 4 bedroom family home with inground pool and al fresco living areas. More photos soon.

21.01.2022 If you're thinking about making improvements to your home or a considering a new build, now is a great time to begin. The Government's announcement of a $25,000 cash grant for prospective new home builders and people undertaking renovations is certainly an incentive. Whether you qualify for the grant or not, this will create considerable demand once things get going again. So if you're thinking of a RENOVATION and would like works to be complete by early next year, design a...nd approval stages need to be underway over the next 3 months. For a NEW BUILD, pre-construction stages (concept design, design development, construction drawings, approvals and putting it out to tender to builders) will take 6-9 months, with construction commencement in Mar-April 2021 at the earliest. So it's a great time to be putting things in place, working on the design, applying for planning approval, tendering out to builders and locking things in, so you have everything organised and prices set. If you would like to know more, call me on 0427 236 252 or email: [email protected]. Let's chat to see how we can help you get your project started. www.my-architect.com.au

20.01.2022 ‘Street appeal’ is something real estate agents often mention in terms of assessing the value of a property. However the benefits of street appeal go far beyond optimising a property’s price tag. Property’s with street appeal give their owners, their neighbours and the entire street a little shot of positivity every time they pass, ‘bringing up the neighbourhood’ if you will. If your property’s street appeal could do with an upgrade, we can help.

20.01.2022 A few of the more characteristic features of the Beaumaris Peninsula are its wonderfully knotty tea tree in various shades of grey, its gravelly, sandy soil and the quality of its mid-century, architect-designed homes. This Beaumaris new build is inspired by all three, with its rammed earth feature wall and the use of modernist-inspired, handcrafted and sustainably made bricks in limestone, which reference the tea tree greys.

19.01.2022 Quite often, the builders we work with ask us why our drawings show that they will be building close to established trees. There are a few reasons we do this. Firstly, we want to respect the existing environment and the amenity these trees have provided for those who have been before us. Secondly, we recognise the benefits established trees bring to the look and feel of a new home, particularly in the early stages upon completion. Thirdly, it’s simply a positive thing to do, for you, your neighbours and the streetscape. Architect: Robert Harwood @my_architect_australia #newbuild #bringinguptheneighborhood #myarchitectdesigned

18.01.2022 Garden maturing nicely at our completed 2 x townhouse project in Ebden Avenue, Black Rock. About to commence another townhouse project in Seaview Crescent, Black Rock, as well as Reserve Road Beaumaris. With every project, our aim is to respect the existing neighbourhood character and replace the original structure with something of higher design and build quality to what was there before. #rethinkingtownhouses #respectingtheneighbourhood #designquality #myarchitectdesigned

17.01.2022 LOVE THY NEIGHBOURHOOD Progress is well underway In Elsternwick, Vic for a first floor extension to this post-war brick home. With projects such as these, our aim is always to respect the original structure and the local building fabric. ... These original homes were designed and built with careful consideration. We believe that any updates should make a positive contribution to what is there already, not only for the benefit of our clients, but for the surrounding streetscape and the local community. It's about lifting the streetscape and respecting the neighbourhood, as well as delivering a home our clients will love for many, many years to come.

16.01.2022 IS YOUR SITE SUITABLE FOR TOWNHOUSES? Whether youre contemplating purchasing a property for subdivision or you already own one and are wondering about its suitability, its crucial to gain professional advice.

14.01.2022 HOT TIP: The pre-construction stages of a renovation or new build are typically more complex and demanding than when you start seeing slabs poured and frames going up. With the careful planning and design that goes into project documentation and specifications, the builders we engage follow a highly detailed road map. It's important to keep in mind that the more detailed the drawings provided to the builder, the more control you have over exactly what is built and its quali...ty. The benefit of this is that it leads to minimal variations and a faster, cheaper and more efficient build. Before builders arrive onsite, you'll typically need to gain planning approval through Council, receive building permits, tender your project out to builders so you can compare their prices and make an informed decision on the right builder for you. And that's just a few of the key milestones that need to be achieved. We can manage all of the above for you. And if you're keen to avoid the bottleneck of projects that will invariably be stuck in the 'traffic' of pre-construction stages in 2021, the time to start in now. So beat the rush and give your renovation or new build a head start. Book your Design Diagnosis today.

10.01.2022 Construction well and truly underway in McKay Street, Sandringham. This renovation involves reconfiguring the existing single level floor plan of a charming weatherboard home, extending the house to the rear and towards the pool. With projects like this, keeping the original character of the home is crucial. Any extension needs to blend beautifully with whats there already, while making it more suited to contemporary living. As our client mentioned yesterday after a ...site visit: Already, we are loving opening the front door and now looking directly to the pool.

07.01.2022 Just some of the wonderful feedback we've received from our lovely clients over the last month or so. Thank you to each and every one of you!

06.01.2022 Too often when we see a vacant, cleared block, we lament the loss of what was there originally rather than feeling positive about what will be constructed to replace it. Too often, there is very good reason for this sentiment. At My Architect, we believe that what we design should make a positive contribution, not only for our clients, but for the surrounding streetscape, the neighbourhood character and the local community. ... It should consider the context, scale, massing, style, setbacks and materials of what is present in the area already. It should understand something of the areas history and not look like its been plonked in place. Instead of using up every last centimetre of a site, a new home should have breathing space around it. Whatever we replace the original house with, it should surpass it in design and build quality. Our houses are not just places to live. They reflect and shape who we are. They are our legacy. #myarchitectdesigned

06.01.2022 For My Architect, it's business almost as usual, with several projects from pre-covid times now under construction in Melbourne and Sydney, whilst others in pre-construction stages moving towards planning and building approval, ready to be built in 2021 and beyond.
