Pointe Living is a nine-storey residential development conceived as a model of hybrid housing, offering the comfort and spatial qualities of a private home within a multi-residential building. It combines generous, well-appointed apartments with the convenience and ease of apartment living, making it particularly appealing to downsizers.

House in a Garden, Kew, Victoria
Architecture: Edition Office

Every room and vantage point is embraced by surrounding foliage, where the passage of time is marked by seasonal shifts in color. While outward views exist, the internal experience remains contained and intimate. Spaces invite quiet reflection, with glimpses to the exterior softly moderated by a slender timber batten screen.

Keon Park Station operates as a contemporary civic gateway along Melbourne’s Mernda Line, positioned roughly 14 kilometres north-east of the CBD. It serves the suburb of Thomastown at a municipal edge where the City of Whittlesea meets the City of Darebin. The project was delivered by the North Western Program Alliance as part of the Keon Parade Level Crossing Removal, a broader initiative to improve safety, connectivity, and traffic flow across the rail network.

Burswood Point waterfront redevelopment, Perth, Western Australia
Masterplan: Skidmore, Owings & Merrill (SOM)
Precinct B Landscape and public realm: Grant Associates
Set along the Swan River at the tip of Burswood Peninsula, just 3.5 kilometres from the Perth CBD, Precinct B is envisioned as a new mixed-use waterfront neighbourhood on a previously untouched stretch of river foreshore. The development is structured around a generous network of public open spaces, with riverfront parkland and civic gathering places forming its social and spatial backbone. Landscape is not treated as an addition but as the defining framework, shaping how the precinct is experienced and connected.

Woodleigh Futures Studio, Victoria
Design: McIldowie Partners
The Woodleigh Futures Studio is conceived as far more than a conventional school building.

Denman Village Prospect Amenities, Canberra, Australian Capital Territory
Architecture: Carter Williamson Architects
Nestled between the Mount Stromlo Observatory and the emblematic Clem Cummings Bus Stop, the project introduces bespoke play structures and carefully considered amenities that embed layers of cultural and historical reference within the landscape. Through elements such as circular keyhole windows and expressive steel framing, the design captures moments of light and shadow, with rounded geometries offering a subtle yet recognisable nod to the legacy of Clem Cummings.

The premise was an interpretation of an Australian Federation Farmhouse, sited on a hilltop in Carrickalinga. With extreme winds, we manipulated the traditional farmhouse, stretching the perimeter to a square, whilst removing the center for the courtyard.
