Located on the Central Coast our architecture projects are distributed from Paddington in inner Sydney, to Blackheath and the far north coast.
Our aim in the work is to illuminate opportunities inherent in each project – the physical, cultural and emotional context – which are unique in every design brief.
We are guided by a logical response but enjoy the unanticipated. Each project generates its own particulars; we avoid stylistic generators of design.
We look to the strength & rightness of durability, the beauty of life and how good design enhances it. Environmental design, green architecture and cost efficiency are our back-ground paradigm. We always incorporate sustainable design principals such as: low energy use, low embodied energy materials, low toxicity material usage & passive solar design. We love timber and recycled timber in particular.


Our work has been acknowledged through exhibition, awards, teaching & by being built & enjoyed.
We take special pride in our history of repeat business with our clients.
