ADVOCACY | WHY USE AN ARCHITECT | Why not I say!
If you are thinking of building over this holiday period and have been told 'you don't need an architect they are just a waste of money' can I recommend our video 'Why Use An Architect.' Our wonderful clients articulate the benefits and what to look out for!
I suggest that you prepare a really good emotive brief of the things you love and hate as well as the standard accommodation, think about the area of your house and be realistic about budget (allow for $5500/sqm finished for example).
Then interview architects whose work you like, ask to speak to at least three of their client referees and three builders they have used. In general particularly are good honest people with a wonderful work ethic and great skills! And finally always Use An Architect! Inc: gender, equity, architecture

We acknowledge the traditional custodians of the lands on which we work and pay our respects to their elders past, present and emerging.

What an absolute shame it is that the final award jury of this festival lacks the diversity of the amazing projects presented.... and yes I appreciate that the one female juror was a winner of a category... all the more reason for increased diversity - gender & age - over all juries.

The Pad | Thank you Architonic for posting South Perth. Such a beautiful project finely crafted to suit our wonderful return clients next stage of life.

This beautiful project designed with our amazing clients was an absolute joy to work on! Designed to gracefully age over time. As the cladding greys off, the new low planting grows, and the old trees flourish Treehouse will sit as all tree houses should - nestled into the bush looking out into the trees! A hidden sanctuary. !

A Dream Transformed: From Weekender to Home Nestled in Western Australia‘s scenic Margaret River bushland, a three-hour drive south of Perth, the Treehouse residence by Suzanne Hunt Architect (SHA) blends natural beauty and modern living.

Beginning as largely untouched bushland in Margaret River, a small town in Western Australia, Treehouse by Suzanne Hunt Architect is at one with nature.

Established in 2005 by architect Suzanne Hunt, the eponymous Perth-based studio is no stranger to working in South West WA.

“I love working in the South West and have done a lot of work in the region over the past 20 years," says Hunt.

“I have a shack in Quindalup, so I’m very committed to the area. I feel very connected to it and privileged to work in such a beautiful part of the country.”

Beautiful it is. Spoilt for rolling hills, world-class wineries, and nearby crystal-blue beaches, Margaret River is an idyllic retreat – something Treehouse’s clients were ready to take advantage of.

Thanks so much to The Local Project for featuring The Pad. A beautifully understated 2 bed single storey home inserted into a dated strata development for our retired clients. A sustainable place to age gracefully and in style. Check out our website to see The Making of The Pad (our video series). Suzie Hunt

The Pad sees Suzanne Hunt Architect draw on the established and trusting relationship with the client to carefully craft a befitting forever home.
