1 Halcyon Walk by H2o Architects and HousingFirst Ltd

This was one of those shoots that really made me work for the images. 1 Halycon Walk by H2o Architects and HousingFirst Ltd is stage one of three that will make up Halcyon Village a senior citizens village in Brighton. While stage one is complete and sitting pretty in it’s leafy surround, stage two was very much in progress, in close proximity, making clean images hard to come by. To add to the complexity residents were moving in around us and the apartments were unfurnished. All that said it’s a great little building and I loved the challenge.

Kilcoy Global Foods Kyneton by Amicus

I hit the road a couple of times earlier this year to shoot the new home of Kilcoy Global Foods for Amicus. Set just out of town in a semi rural, industrial estate it was a nice change from busy, bustling Melbourne. In a first for Amicus, they have designed both the interiors and the building itself.

St Kilda Road Penthouse by Meredith Lee

How quickly the weeks slip by. Here we are on the last day of April and over a month has passed since I last shared new work with you. I’ve a few things I want to share and I’ll start with this St Kilda Road Penthouse by the team at Meredith Lee. I don’t think I’ll ever tire of soft, sheer, billowing curtains and the beautiful light they afford.

Side note: Please take a moment to appreciate the flames in the lounge fire. It was not a fire kind of day and that heater works! Very well.

The Hedberg by Liminal Studio and WOHA

I’m a little ashamed to admit I made my first visit to Hobart this year, that it took a building to get me there, and that I still didn’t make it to MONA. I know, what have I been doing with my life?!

All that aside, let’s talk about the building. The Hedberg, designed by local firm Liminal Studio and Singapore’s WOHA (of Kampung Admiralty fame). Home to the lovely folks and students at University of Tasmania who welcomed me so warmly, and The Theatre Royal.

I won’t ramble on, I’ll just say that it’s a stunning building, inside and out. Suitably beautiful and functional to be home to Hobart’s performing arts. It was an absolute pleasure UTAS!

Collingwood Offices by Aquilla and Made For

Shot another two great Collingwood offices by Aquilla Interiors and Made For earlier this year. Shadow game was strong with these two, well when the sun was shining anyway! Melbourne…

Secret Garden House by Amiconi Architects

I watched this house being built - caught glimpses of it from the surrounding streets. It’s not too far from where I’m living while my house is being built. Despite having watched it, I was still surprised, delighted even, when I made my first site visit. The clever orientation of the studio at the street, the house at back and the gorgeous, productive garden in between. I just assumed it ran straight along the eastern boundary! The interiors are impressive too. Plenty of natural light from the northern facing doors to the garden but warm and cosy at the same time. A credit to the clever team behind it!

Servier by Amicus and State of Work

I returned once again to the Botannica group of buildings in Hawthorn for Amicus and State of Work to shoot the new workplace of Servier, an international and independent pharmaceutical company. This new office fit out delivers a workplace that supports flexible and hybrid ways of working to suit every employee in a post covid world.
