Featured last week on The Local Project - Robeson Architects Urban House...excerpt below; 

The Urban House by Robeson Architects is a modern style home with a hint of Japanese style in Western Australia.

The client wanted to utilise the mixed-use zoning of the site by creating a commercial tenancy at street level to be leased by the owner but used as their own office in the future. Interiors were to be kept open and flexible, orientated to the northern aspect and pool.

Japanese influences are expressed through colour and texture use, along with matte finishes and deep colour accents. The home engages with its location at street level where the properties change from commercial to residential.

Featured on ArchDaily this week; Keen Architecture's Claremont Residence with a striking facade gets some love. This was one of two projects we photographed for them that week and we got lucky with some sun at the right time. Check out the article here.

A feature timber screened balcony off the master suite punches though the steel portal frame again creating interest but also a lockable facade. The timber box has built in bi-folds which open to views of Claremont but can also be a private parents retreat. The flying roof form provides shade to the 'entertainers delight', a large open roof deck (engineered to take a future spa) which takes full advantage of river glimpses to the south, the City to the east.

David Weir's Exploding Shed house featuring on ArchitectureAU this week...

"This “energetic” one-bedroom cottage by David Weir Architects provides a place to live and a place to work, embracing its small footprint while packing punch through bold materiality and strength of form."

So good to see this project by Keen Architecture get a feature on Contemporist. Check out the article here.

Skinny block, lock and leave architecture at its finest. Located in Claremont, Perth, Western Australia. Was a pleasure to photograph - it was nice to see the sun come out for the elevation shot too.
