Residential neighbourhood
Mohua Lane
A collection of homes with a shared architectural language. Brick, dark cladding and clearly defined entrances bring individual identity to a larger residential neighbourhood.
Completed project photography

Townhouse development
2 Jadewynn Drive
A compact group of townhouses defined by a confident black and white palette. Vertical proportions and a repeated façade rhythm give the street frontage a clear identity.

The homes use a multi-level arrangement to bring living and private spaces into a compact footprint. Individual front doors and small outdoor areas create a direct relationship with the street.

Design studies & visualisations
From the drawing board.
Explore the thinking behind larger residential schemes and master plans. The images below are architectural visualisations, not completion photographs.
Urban residential design
20 Wilmer Street
An urban housing scheme with crisp building forms and landscaped spaces between them. The design explores how a central city development can feel connected, legible and residential in character.
Architectural visualisations
Explore the design
The visualisations show a restrained palette, vertical façade elements and courtyard planting. Building edges and shared outdoor spaces are considered together to create a coherent whole.

Central city housing / Courtyard relationships / Building rhythm
Coastal residential design
87 Marine Parade
A coastal residential scheme exploring the relationship between individual homes, shared outdoor spaces and the street. Balconies, planting and varied façades give the design depth.
Architectural visualisations
Explore the design
The illustrated buildings frame landscaped circulation and communal spaces. The architecture responds to the larger scale of the development through distinct forms and a connected ground plane.

Urban residential design
12 Bath Street
A central city housing scheme bringing apartment and townhouse forms into a coordinated arrangement. Contrasting volumes and planted spaces give the scheme a distinct architectural character.
Architectural visualisations
Explore the design
The design considers the transition from the surrounding city to the more sheltered spaces within the development. Stairs, circulation and landscaping become part of that experience.

Housing mix / Urban context / Internal landscape
Residential & commercial master plan
AO Estates
A large site study bringing residential and commercial uses into one planning framework. The design considers how movement, building types and open spaces can work together across the precinct.
Architectural visualisations
Explore the design
The scheme explores a variety of homes alongside a storage component. Its architectural challenge is the relationship between different uses, the organisation of access and the identity of individual neighbourhood spaces.
