Demolition underway for Bronte Hillside with @strattibuilding
A reimagined semi-detached home designed to embrace expansive ocean views and effortless coastal living
•Project• Bronte Hillside
A central courtyard breathes life into the heart of this Paddington home, drawing natural light deep into the living and dining spaces. In the stairwell, glass bricks softly diffuse light while becoming a quiet architectural feature in their own right

Perched on a tiered Sydney Harbour site, Bay View brings together heritage and contemporary elegance.
Sculptural curves, expansive glazing and reflective forms echo the waterfront setting, while a thoughtful nod to the historic streetscape ensures the home feels as connected to its context as it does to the lives of those who live in it.

We are thrilled and honoured to announce that our project Bay View has been shortlisted in the Residential Design category for the Australian Interior Design Awards 2026
Bay View embodies a philosophy reconciling architecture, strategy and context, emphasising transparency, openness and reverence for heritage while embracing contemporary elegance. Designed for an older couple, the home balances downsizing with longevity through sculptural curves, glazing and a connection to Sydney Harbour, creating a sanctuary that evolves with its occupants

Sea Glass emerges as a considered expression of architectural strength and family living. This eight-bedroom residence set along the windswept shoreline of Killcare Beach responds to its exposed oceanfront site with robust, monumental forms softened by gentle curves. It neither retreats nor mimics its setting, instead establishing a dialogue between permanence and the sublime

Set along Boomerang Beach, the master bedroom and ensuite unfold as a calm, light-filled retreat. Exposed timber rafters crown the lofted space, while expansive glazing draws in ocean views. The adjoining ensuite, anchored by a sculptural bath sits beneath a softly carved skylight, inviting slow, restorative moments

Within Heirloom’s rear extension, the master ensuite unfolds as a quietly luminous retreat. Northern light washes across warm, tactile finishes, while a sculptural fitting by Ross Gardem lends a gentle glow. A softened curtain edge tempers the space, balancing openness with intimacy and calm
