Permanence
Selected works from Atelier Build Co. — considered residential, commercial, and heritage construction across Melbourne, Victoria.
I — Residential Renovation
Draft House
George St, Fitzroy · 2024A 35m² apartment approached as an exercise in deliberate constraint. Conceived in collaboration with Design & Diplomacy for a novelist who required a space that could shift fluidly between living, working, and rest. Polished concrete throughout, fold-away workspaces, curtain-lined zones. Nothing incidental.

II — Bathroom Renovation
The Luxe Retreat
Clayton · 2025A master bathroom renovation designed to bring the elevated warmth of a boutique hotel into a private residence. Executed in collaboration with LN Design, the project is defined by its materiality — natural stone, brushed brass, and deep-toned joinery — resolved into a cohesive, spa-like environment.

III — Residential Renovation
Elm Grove
Kew East · 2026A three-space renovation — kitchen, dining, and bathroom — guided by a single unifying principle: warmth without ornamentation. Plywood cabinetry and stainless steel meet terracotta tiles, coloured grout, and a stainless steel vanity. Three distinct rooms, one resolved palette. Conceived in collaboration with Design + Diplomacy.
