New Commercial Development | Concept
Here’s a look at a suburban commercial development concept we’ve been working on.
The design utilises simple materials and considered articulation to define entry points and establish a clear rhythm along the façade.
A direct approach with a refined outcome.

🌈 Lights on at Bogong!
A wave of colour now washes over Bogong Carpark, thanks to its newly installed dynamic lighting officially transforming the façade — a vibrant addition to the Glen Waverley skyline.
Proud to see architecture and lighting working together to elevate our urban spaces.

🏉 New Sporting Pavilion | Tooradin, VIC
We’re excited to share a glimpse of our latest concept design — a contemporary sporting pavilion set in the heart of the Tooradin Recreation Reserve
This design response takes advantage of the significant flood level, with an elevated form floating above the ground and providing an excellent view over the sports field on one side, and the netball courts on the other.
Just another way we turn constraints into opportunities!
