About Residence
Established in 2022, we are building designers specialising in small scale residential projects. From detailed renovations and alterations of all scales, to new homes and multi-residential developments, we work closely with homeowners and developers to deliver exceptional homes.
With a strong presence in the Hills District and Norwest, NSW, we also regularly work across Sydney’s Inner West, bringing the same detail-driven approach to every project.
Architecture informs how you move through the world. We believe that your home should be a thoughtful reflection of you, the owner - an authentic expression that feels personal, purposeful and harmonious with your lifestyle.
Before commencing your project, we invest time and energy into understanding your way of life: your routines, family, hobbies and how you intend to inhabit your home. These contextual insights inform every decision we make.
As a small, close-knit building design studio, collaboration is central to our work. We invite you into the creative process as we test, refine and resolve ideas, together. We see ourselves as your trusted guide, working alongside you to achieve your vision.
From our very first conversation, relationships come first. We listen carefully before we speak, communicate with clarity and honesty and bring structure to what can often feel like a complex process. We’re as passionate about the journey, as we are about the final resolution.
