#marmionstreethouse under construction. Single level at the rear of the sloping site. The roof form set back with a wrap around verandah to protect from the north-west. A deep covered outdoor space to make the most of our climate. Being built by Portrait Custom Homes. #australianarchitecture #perthhouses #pertharchitecture #pertharchitects #pertharchitect #cottesloearchitect #houses #underconstruction

Almost a week on we are still on a high from the news that our #blincostreethouse received a commendation at the 2018 #housesmagazine awards!!! Congratulations to all the other commended and winning projects — we were especially chuffed to be in the company of several WA projects ;) Thank you to @housesmagazine for hosting these awards and to the members of the jury who gave their time :) Photos by @b_o_w_o_n_g showing the lattice facade in its various permutations. #australianarchitecture #housesawards2018 #houses #residentialarchitecture #fremantlearchitecture #operablefacade #brisesoleil #architecture https://www.instagram.com/p/Bl8K4yXgrm_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=p5ef77pet376

We’re really excited to be part of efforts that make architecture more accessible to more people. Channel 10’s Australia by Design is one of those initiatives, with Season 2 having just commenced. Tune in for the WA episode at 3pm on the 29th of July where our #blincostreethouse will be getting some air time :) Thank you @aubydesign for including us on your show!!

#thingsilove Shortly after our #parmeliastreetproject was completed, our clients sent us a list of the things they love about living in their new home. It’s a wonderful thing to know you’ve touched someone’s life in such a positive way.

We are so proud to have received an Architecture Award for our #blincostreethouse at last night’s WA AIA Architecture Awards!!! Thank you to everyone who was involved in realising this project, especially to our client, Dan Mulcahy, who took the leap of faith with us :) What a magnificent night (well done AIA, WA Chapter) and huge congratulations to all the other winners!! We’re extremely thankful to the New Houses jury for noticing our project in such a competitive category ;) #architectureawards #residentialarchitecture #awardwinningarchitecture #australianhouses #awardsnight #newhouses #woohoo

A project on the canals in Wannanup. The principal idea was to make the most of the water; the site is terraced down from street level with a singular focus; a north facing garden accompanies internal living spaces in the descent....a first floor steps horizontally across the double-height void, directing views diagonally toward the horizon...a terrace at the street end of the site offers a long vista across the garden to the canal. Materials will comprise timber left to weather, masonry, off-form concrete and face-fixed formply. Currently in design development, we can’t wait for this one to emerge on site! #avocethouse #pertharchitecture #pertharchitects #canalhouse #terracing #terracedgarden #weatheredwood #industrialarchitecture #architectureau

A warehouse we did for @thelandscapeguys some years ago. A thick facade contains a staff breakout terrace, airconditioning plant, and entrance awning. Composite timber battens showcase a product sold by our clients. Incredibly, the building was constructed for the price of a small house!!

A project in Dwellingup negotiating the site to capture light and breeze. A roof form that gathers interior and exterior and frames views to neighbouring trees. #marinupstreethouse #australianarchitecture #houses #residentialarchitecture #architectureau #fremantlearchitect #sustainabledesign #passivesolardesign

The first floor kitchen @parmeliastreethouse aims to connect the owners with a neighbourhood and climate familiar to them.. curtains run along a continuous blackened timber ring beam, providing privacy as needed.

A recent publication by the Urban Design Forum WA presenting various facets of the debate surrounding densification of our cities. Our contribution was a series of hypothetical anecdotes by potential inhabitants of a co-living experiment we designed for LandCorp’s Step-Up Competition last year. #density #coliving #communalliving #futurehousing #livingtogether #sustainablehousing #foreverhouse #fremantlearchitect
