About us

We are

An energetic, progressive, diverse and experienced group of architects, interior designers, project managers and technical staff with a shared purpose – to create places, spaces and environments that enhance the daily lives of those they serve. That are accessible and inclusive, that stimulate and engage us, bring us together and bring out the best in us.

e’ve been doing this for 25+ years, successfully delivering over 500 projects, ranging in value from $100,000 to $20,000,000, for schools, local and state governments, organisations, developers and private clients.

We want

Good architecture to be accessible, attainable and enjoyed by all.

For people of all backgrounds and abilities to benefit from the positive impact, good architecture has on our lives and overall wellbeing.

And for our environment and communities to benefit from a more conscious approach to building and construction, where adaptability, longevity, sustainability and passive design principles are prioritised as part of the design process.  

We do

Walk the walk and talk the talk.

By listening, learning, observing, studying, consulting, sharing ideas and architectural knowledge, we empower our clients and the communities we serve to achieve the ultimate outcome. To maximise value, minimise impact and create an environment that is all that they hoped, and more.

In practice, this takes many forms. It involves research, consultation, exploration, ideas, lots of ideas, creativity, curiosity, care, consideration, expertise, passion, and commitment.

Design Principles

Respond to the site’s social, cultural and historical context with architectural forms that express value and identity.

Use light, shape, form, texture and transitions to appropriately stimulate the subconscious, regulate emotions and shape experiences.

Employ a human-centred design approach to ensure the built form is accessible and inclusive and promotes wellbeing and connection, with self and others.

Extend the lifespan of built environments by prioritising long-term flexibility and adaptability alongside fit for purpose.

Create seamless connections to nature and outdoor environments to improve physical and emotional well-being and maximise passive consumption.
