Recent New South Wales Building Design
NSW Architecture Designs from 2013 to 2022 arranged chronologically:
5 Jul 2022
Wombat House, Wombat, Young
Architects: Richard Cole Architecture
photo : Rachel Lenehan Photography
A new house in Wombat, near Young in regional NSW, utilises a simple linear plan to respond to the site. This contemporary NSW home faces due north and using a palette of robust, economical materials, the building is carefully assembled to accommodate a young family.

Bundeena House, Royal National Park NSW
Architects: RAAarchitects
photo : Michael Nicholson
The site for the Bundeena House was one of last built upon lots in the subdivision of a former Uniting Church campsite on the western side of the steep hill behind Bundeena Beach in the Royal National Park. The owner, who worked as a carpenter on the construction of the first four houses in the original subdivision in 2007, was given the opportunity to return to Bundeena and purchase this challenging block 10 years later.

Bluff Farm House, rural New South Wales, about four hours from Sydney
Design: Richard Cole Architecture
photograph : Brett Boardman
In the tradition of isolated rural buildings, the house is conceived as a singular gesture responding to the strength of the site: a grassy terrace overlooking a meandering river facing north up a spectacular valley, next to an old eucalypt. The essential concept of Bluff Farm House reflects the way in which the owner has always used this place: setting up a table on the grass under the shade of the tree.

Foamcrest Apartments, Newport NSW
Architects: Richard Cole Architecture
photo : Simon Wood Photography
On a difficult triangular site in the coastal suburb of Newport on the Northern Beaches of Sydney, Foamcrest Apartments is a form generated from the unique site. A composition of glazed bricks, off form concrete and sandstone, materials selected for their durability and appropriateness for the ocean side location, the seven apartments are 100% adaptable and differentiated by unique plans.

Merindah Park House, Bellawongarah NSW
Architects: Richard Cole Architecture
photo : Simon Wood Photography
A new owner built farmhouse, Merindah Park House in Bellawongarah, on the tablelands above Kangaroo Valley, takes cues from traditional rural building materials and forms. The splayed plan opens to the landscape and generates a serene central courtyard around which circulation paths are placed.

Architect and Interior Designer: Rama Architects

Cockatoo Island Property, Woolwich, Sydney
Design: Breathe Architecture
render : Mark Gerada
The Cockatoo Island / Wareamah Concept Vision was developed in 2021 for the Sydney Harbour Federation Trust [SHFT], to outline a new future for its ongoing restoration and regeneration. The vast nature of the island and the many precincts means that it is likely to be delivered in several stages over the coming decade. It is a complex place with many supporters and stakeholders which has a special place in the minds of many in Sydney and around Australia.

Architects: X.PACE

photograph : Martin Mischkulnigs

Paddington Reservoir Gardens
Design: Tonkin Zulaikha Greer and JMD design
photo : Brett Boardman
When TZG and JMD were commissioned to convert the Paddington Reservoir into an urban park, the general expectation was that the site would be capped off and a brand new arrangement built on top. However, the architects were captivated by the possibilities of revealing the 19th century structures as a ruin through which members of the public could wander, taking in the dramatic spaces and play of light across the remnants of historic walls and vaults.

Little Paddo, Paddington, New South Wales
Design: Anton Kouzmin Architecture
Pphotograph : Katherine Lu
The brief for Little Paddo was simple; to transform a stuffy old attic conversion into a well ventilated, light filled, flexible studio that accommodated a work-from-home study, a place to play and compose music, ample storage, a fold-out bed and a laundry.
