Whitlam Place

Conceived as a series of contained and intimate spaces, Whitlam Place is ordered around a central courtyard terrace — a quiet outdoor room held within the canopies of Ironbark trees.

The interior carries a sense of weight and permanence, expressed through generous scale, substantive proportions and monolithic forms. These are softened by subtle modulations of warm whites, stone, timber and soothing grey tones.

Curved geometries introduce a gentle rhythm throughout the home: rounded marble edges, circular tables, softened reveals and sculptural elements that bring a quiet musicality to the plan.

Across the rooms, delicate textures and natural materials catch the shifting light. The terrace tiles, stone surfaces and pale interior walls receive the soft, dappled shadow of leaves — bringing the movement of the trees into the experience of the architecture.

A home shaped by stillness, light, intimacy and permanence.

Whitlam Place, Fitzroy.

Set within Fitzroy’s Golden Triangle, between the civic presence of the Town Hall, the intimacy of Whitlam Place gardens, and the cultural charge of Brunswick, Gertrude and Smith Streets, this project was never simply about apartment living.

Whitlam Place was conceived as a building in conversation with its neighbourhood — drawing from the rhythm and ornament of nearby civic architecture, the texture of Fitzroy’s creative history, and the layered life of the street. Its fluted concrete skin, copper-oxide finish, framed windows, planted courtyards and neon-lit circulation spaces form a deliberately expressive language: part residence, part urban marker, part continuation of Fitzroy’s art and design culture.

The project’s impact lies in this balance — private homes that still contribute to the public character of place; a building that holds its own, while belonging deeply to its context.

Christmas Street.

Two pavilions joined by a glazed gallery — an inner courtyard garden held between.

Each threshold reveals the next. Raw concrete, sage green joinery, light that shifts through the day.

Christmas Street.

A home designed to reveal itself slowly — each threshold a quiet invitation, each turn yielding another hidden moment.

Muted sage green anchors the architecture without announcing itself. Staircase, joinery, cabinetry — threaded through like a signature you notice only once you’re inside.

Docker Street.

Softness as structure — curved joinery that pools into linen, light that falls through a single circle, tiles that ripple like water.

Rose Street, Fitzroy for

A building that lives at both ends — shopfronts that spill onto the street, residences that pull back into green.

Rawness of brick and concrete, softened by planting at every level.

Curves as conversation.

At Docker Street, geometry becomes gesture — a spiral stair that draws you upward, walls that soften corners, ceilings that follow their own logic.

We wanted architecture that felt less like rooms and more like a continuous unfolding. Timber ceiling warms the volumes overhead while curved forms below guide movement without instruction.

The result is a home that breathes differently. Light pools in unexpected places. Corners disappear. Every threshold feels like an invitation.

Colour as architecture.

At Christmas Street, we introduced a muted sage green not as accent, but as anchor — a sculptural staircase, floor-to-ceiling joinery, and custom cabinetry that thread through the home like a quiet signature.

Set against raw concrete and light timber, the green becomes both grounding and unexpected. It softens industrial edges while holding its own as a material in the conversation.

The courtyard beyond dissolves the boundary between inside and out — succulents and native planting extending the palette into landscape.

Designed for clients who wanted warmth without weight, and boldness without volume.
