Hello Cubby House!

My latest project, compact in space but big on impact, Cubby House is a renovation and addition to a circa 1950 home. Located in the character-rich neighbourhood of Shenton Park, the addition was carefully designed to minimise site intrusion — adding only 14 sqm of built form on the ground level.

The new space on the ground level is a playroom for the children, located adjacent to the main living spaces, while the new upper level accommodates the parents’ retreat.

The clients brought construction experience and their own design flair to the design, personally selecting all interior materials and fittings.

Why “Cubby House”?
The design is cosy and playful, and centred on the children’s needs, with places to play inside and out. While connected to the original home, the backyard addition has its own personality — a Cubby House.

After 7.5 years of serving as a volunteer on the WA Chapter Council, this month I complete my tenure ✔️

📷 via POST Newspapers at the WA Chapter office



First elected as a Chapter Councillor in January 2019, I took on the role of Editor of “The Architect” magazine 🤓

📷 with Jimmy Thompson and the copy of the magazine featuring his North Perth home.

I reimagined the magazine for a public audience, broadening the The Architect’s distribution beyond members to bookshops and newsagents.

In 2020, I was awarded the Emerging Architect Prize for my work on The Architect and other advocacy, including my newspaper column and work on city revitalisation project Historic Heart of Perth.

In January 2022, I was elected President of the WA Chapter - being one of only two women to hold the role in the organisation’s 130 year history 💃🏼

(The very first meeting of the Chapter is understood to have been held in the Criterion Hotel in the city on the afternoon of 26 May 1896 with George Temple-Poole elected as the first President.)

As WA President, my focus was to engage directly with our broad member base to determine their priorities, and I’m proud of the initiatives I created and championed.

I engaged with our diverse membership group via Practice Workshops to hear firsthand the issues facing the profession, and initiated annual Strategic Planning Meetings to set our WA agenda.

As well as engaging with members and the public, I brought together and Chaired monthly Built Environment Reference Group (BERG) meetings to collaborate on advocacy with other key advocacy bodies - PIA, AILA, ACA, Engineers Australia, PCA, UDIA, and HIA.

One of my latest projects on ArchDaily today …

“As a residential project, it demonstrates a thoughtful approach to design, the planning of the home centered on landscape, and the retention of a mature tree much loved by the owners of the home.”

One of my favourite parts of a project - photo day! Loved seeing the finished product all polished up to capture some snapshots with Jenna French | Architectural & Design Photographer today. And very lucky to have design savvy clients who have done a great job with the interiors. 🤍

This addition was carefully designed to minimise impact on the site ‐ leaving lots of room for the children to play. We added only 14sqm of built form on the ground level for the children’s rumpus room; with the new upper level accommodating the parents’ bedroom. Total site coverage remains only 36%, maximising garden and maintaining existing trees.

Thank you to clients and collaborators Aimee Whyte and Tim Whyte for allowing us to roam around their home!

Thank you to the team at Business News for recognizing the impact of Perth Design Week by including me in their “Power 500” again this year.

Power 500 is an annual biographical guide and publication by Western Australian publisher Business News. It ranks and profiles the 500 most influential leaders across business, politics, the public sector and the community in WA.

My fourth year in their list, but my first year specifically as Perth Design Week founder. In previous years, I was acknowledged for my roles with Historic Heart and as a City of Perth Councillor/Deputy Mayor (2022) and as President of the Institute of Architects in WA (2023-2024)—starting in their political list and then moving into property.

I founded Perth Design Week with David Smith in 2022 because I believe in the power of good design to shape positive outcomes. Design is everywhere and for everyone—from our city streets to our homes and everything inside them. Design is in the background, quietly dictating quality of life. It’s far more than an aesthetic endeavor, the design sector is a significant part of WA’s economy, with huge potential for growth. Perth Design Week exists to highlight this, showcasing design through thought-provoking discussions, installations and exhibitions.

Thanks to the team working alongside me to help make Perth Design Week possible: Juliana Torres, Reinette Roux, Andree McIntyre, Eugene Hooks, Amy Clark, Amber Sheldon, Fiona Kalaf, the team at Block, and many more.

And thanks again to WA Business News!
