Bondi 01

An original California bungalow in Bondi Beach, reworked around the relationship between house, garden and studio. A concrete halo frames an outdoor room between house and studio, creating volume without enclosure and making the garden the centre of daily life.

Bondi 02

A multi-level substantial reworking of a Bondi Beach property, reconsidering its architecture, interiors and relationship to the outdoors. A renewed spatial arrangement, restrained in its detailing, with moments of joy, considered materiality and a gardener’s delight.

Surry Hills 01

105 sq meters with big ambitions. A considered reworking extending outward for a new kitchen, drawing light deep into the plan, opening living spaces to the garden and finding room to grow above. A careful negotiation between what stays, what changes and what makes the difference.
