These moments don't always make it into the editorial rounds. We were asked recently in an interview what our approach to design was. Albert gave the example of the firewood storage and wetsuit rack we designed for the Bellows house (third slide). These daily rituals epitomise the lifestyle of this holiday home, and by considering them a fundamental part of designing, not an add on, the architecture has the ability to respond to the specific context of the project. Approaching design with context as a driving force makes each project different from anything else we've done.

From the bottom to the top - this stair in the #EATStockroomcottage is a complete team effort between engineer, builder and architect. The detailing of the stairs and walkways above allows light to pass through what would usually be solid elements.

Have you been to Tokyo? Have you noticed the levels of extreme contrast within the streetscape? Futuristic LED lit shopfronts with the cacophony of pachinko machines sitting opposite incredibly intimate, traditional eateries.
The contrast of extremes is what inspired the design of Tetsujin; a half sushi train, half BBQ grill restaurant. The ordered, bright sushi train is a markedly different experience to the dark and theatrical barbecue grill. Have you been here?

See you for BBQ at #EATYeosin ? The design of this restaurant took aspects of BBQ dining (like charred timber) and elevated it to create a sense of luxury while still using materiality that harks back to the tangible qualities of the food.

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: A BUILDING NEEDS TO HAVE EMOTIONAL FREQUENCY. It needs to find the human touch. Our Carpenters Square House was an exercise in finding opportunities in a restrictive context. The plan of the L shaped addition' hugs' the existing Edwardian house, like a traditional carpenters square. The architecture constantly looked for ways to find connection and delight in family life.

Architects at home:
When we saw Judi Keith Brown ask architects to pick up a pen and illustrate their wfh surroundings we knew we wanted to join in. As we head back in to the office, we've taken this opportunity to say goodbye to permanent wfh life (we hope). There were some silver linings, zoom calls with crying babies in the background humanised the work place in more ways than one; running out of living rooms into bedrooms to take a call, or infamous incidents' where cameras were left on by accident. Through all of it, we've had a team that have come out much stronger and we're super thankful to our colleagues, clients, builders and consultants that persevered with us.

In case you needed another reason to get out for a cocktail (unlikely), @omniabistro is calling. Located in the heart of South Yarra, EVERY. SINGLE. DETAIL. was inspired by the warmth, and earthiness of the European aesthetic. The result is reminiscent of sipping Aperol Spritz in a Tuscan piazza or cocktails on the Rivera. Sign me up.

🤯🤯🤯10 PAGES! Thank you to @houseandgarden for the magnificent spread and write up. Our Carpenter's Square house is a renovation to an Edwardian home; it is a project rich in detail. From an all brick floor to concave battened ceilings, the architecture was about capturing details that were informed by the existing, and made new. For more details, visit our website.

HOLY MOLY we're excited to be back in the office next week and we've been reminiscing on some offices we've done in the past. WFH has brought up new ideas about work / life balance and it's really got us thinking about the potential opportunities to reimagine offices and workplaces. What do you want from a work place? Has Covid changed your perspective on 'the office'? TELL US!

In keeping with our #EATgetgreen week, these are some of our favourite landscape moments. A fundamental part of being an architect is having a love affair with nature...RIGHT?! Well we think so. We see it as an extension of the architecture, and we couldn't do it without our team 🍃🍀🌱🌿

Follow the recycled brick road? This beautiful house is our Stockroom Cottage. The plan is divided into three distinct zones by the brick circulation spine. We have a big Insta story planned for this project to share extra details so stay tuned! 🙇‍♀️

Recently we asked the staff to describe what EAT meant to them in one word - and this is what we got back. Might just be the best summary of our office we’ve ever written 🙌🙌🙌

Talk about DRAMA. For #EATyeosin we wanted @yeosin_bbq to have multiple zones that offered distinct dining experiences catering to different times of the day. Stained timber panels were used to create the vaulted, charred ceiling. Appropriate for a BBQ dining experience, no? 🔥🔥🔥
