Our Wattle Grove proposal in McKinnon responds with three, three-storey townhouses, balancing the scale of new development with the character of the surrounding streetscape.
Articulated building forms, a recessed upper level and a restrained palette of masonry and linear cladding bring together privacy, amenity and a considered architectural expression.

Can a single screen change how a home feels every hour of the day?
On a narrow Port Melbourne site with rear laneway access, @_benandben_ designed two side-by-side homes that turn the constraints of an inner urban setting into something quietly extraordinary. At the heart of the design is an adaptable expanded mesh screen, positioned to moderate sunlight, provide privacy and encourage natural cross ventilation. Sun, shadow and season become part of daily life, a changing backdrop to the rituals of those inside.

Bells Beach | Interior Concept
A coastal home centred on simple living, natural materials and a quiet connection to its surroundings.
Blackbutt joinery brings warmth and texture to the interiors, complemented by exposed aggregate surfaces that echo the coastal landscape.

Planning approval secured for an alteration and addition to a heritage home in Albert Park.
The proposal introduces a contemporary extension that responds to the existing heritage fabric and planning controls, while creating generous internal volumes and capturing views of the city.
Following a considered design and consultation process, we look forward to the next stage.

Two homes. One screen. A thousand moments of changing light.
Situated on a narrow site with rear laneway access in Port Melbourne, this project by @_benandben_ comprises of two side-by-side homes that turn the constraints of an inner urban setting into something quietly extraordinary. At the heart of the design is an adaptable expanded mesh screen, carefully positioned to moderate sunlight, provide privacy and encourage natural cross ventilation. Rather than separating the home from the street, the screen establishes a considered threshold between private and public, filtering light throughout the day and softening the building’s interface with its surroundings. Sun, shadow and season become part of how the home is experienced, a living, changing backdrop to the everyday rituals of those inside.

From the street, the screen filters light and privacy.
From within, it becomes part of the experience of home.

The expanded mesh screen at Nott Street, Port Melbourne, establishes a considered threshold between the home and the street, balancing privacy with openness.
Responding to a north facing aspect, the adaptable screen filters natural light throughout the day, encourages cross ventilation and allows the changing qualities of sun, shadow and season to become part of everyday living.

Permit Achieved - A heritage addition in Middle Park that expands the floor plan for family living through a grounded masonry expression.
