Note from the editor

T

his week, we welcome new Domain columnist Paul Bangay – the green thumb with the golden touch.

As one of Australia’s most celebrated garden designers, his signature verdant creations enliven and enrich the finest properties in Sydney and Melbourne.

Further afield, his work is in demand with discerning clients throughout Europe, North America and the West Indies. In his first piece for us, Paul shares the secrets to creating a flourishing spring garden, with his own glorious property Stonefields as the template for spectacular results. Also in New Living, interiors guru Dea Jolly breaks down when to splurge, and when to spend with restraint, in a renovation. The residential pages this week are brimming with the first flush of properties on the spring market, and our feature story explores what is next for Melbourne’s industrial belt – can we predict the next Richmond or Port Melbourne?

OUR COVER A dazzling Armadale renovation,

With its pitched roof and dark grey corrugated

metal cladding, Escarpment House by Atelier Andy Carson looks at first glance like a traditional farm shed. However, on closer inspection, its exterior is merely an homage to the surrounding rural landscape, concealing a refined guest house inside.

The use of a steel portal frame echoes the construction technique of standard sheds, but this particular home features elegant timber beams across the internal ceiling and no visible bolts.

The elongated rectangle form was chosen to achieve passive solar design while framing farmland and water views to the north and south.

The ocean is blocked by the building on approach, allowing the sight of it to be dramatically revealed upon stepping inside.

The view of the Illawarra escarpment on the western side is equally as stunning, calling for the creation of a third outlook.

“We imagined large mechanical blades in front of the glass that could regulate the sun’s heat and light at will,” says architect Andy Carson.

“The result is these beautifully simple looking copper panels that fold to entirely close the facade, or can be fully opened, allowing long bands of the sunlight and shadow deep into the living spaces at sunset.”

A sleek renovation has transformed this charming California bungalow into a picture-perfect property. The main bedroom off a central hallway includes a spacious walk-in wardrobe and en suite in muted grey and warm timber. A sparkling kitchen, kitted out with Smeg appliances, stone benchtops and butler’s pantry, leads to a light-filled open-plan dining and living zone. Double-doors open to a decked entertaining area and manicured lawn with established garden beds to frame the space. This family home is in a prime spot close to Regent Street and Gilbert Road shopping strips and only a sevenminute walk to Regent train station.

irst Richmond was transformed, followed by Brunswick, Port Melbourne, Preston, Coburg and Footscray. Now it is West Melbourne’s turn in the developer’s eye, with several projects set to increase the suburb’s population three-fold by 2036.

But where next will buyers turn when these trendy inner suburbs reach capacity? According to industry experts, it is likely to be the northern suburbs of Thomastown, Campbellfield and Lalor.

Anthony D’Ambros, director of Stockdale & Leggo Epping, has lived and worked in this area north of Melbourne his entire life. “Everyone worked at Goodyear in Thomastown in the early 1990s,’’ he recalls. ‘‘When it closed [in 2002], we thought the sky would fall. A lot of the workers went to Bostik, Dunlop, Ford, and of them only Bostik remains.”

DOM A IN

However, Thomastown is rebounding, he says, and expected to be one of Melbourne’s growth areas.

“The relocation of the [wholesale] Melbourne Market to Epping has created many new jobs and has had a large impact on market growth,” agrees Harcourts Rata & Co director Andrew DeSanto.

The population of the City of Whittlesea, which takes in the suburbs of Thomastown and Lalor, is

forecast by population consultants .id to grow more than 71 per cent by 2041. Similarly, Hume City – Campbellfield, Cragieburn and Roxburgh Park – is predicted to grow by more than 66 per cent over the same period. The growth is being supported by new roads, schools, town centres and housing estates.

“Has real estate changed in the last 28 years of working in this area?

Absolutely,’’ D’Ambros says. ‘‘Craigieburn was an outer township, Roxburgh Park did not exist and Mickleham Road north of Craigieburn was paddocks. Now it’s a solid northern suburb, with rapid growth. We cannot keep up with demand.”

The Carlingford and Mosaic estates in Lalor have proved very popular with young families, D’Ambros says.

Other pockets buyers have their eye on include the Lyndarum and Aurora estates in Epping (the latter of which

is expected to eventually house 25,000 people), Palisades in South Morang and Mitchell’s Run in Doreen. D’Ambros also points to Epping North, Campbellfield, and new suburb Wollert as spots buyers will look at.

“The increase in prices in Reservoir, Preston, Northcote and Thornbury means buyers are moving down the [train] line to affordable areas like Thomastown,” he explains.

There has also been increased interest in the area from investors.

D’Ambros says Beveridge, Kilmore, Broadford and through to Seymour are experiencing solid growth.

“As Melbourne sprawls outwards, Thomastown seems to become more central. Craigieburn Road, Wollert, is farmland today: 2019 will see this explode with new land sales releases,’’ he predicts.

Churston Lodge was renovated and styled to dazzling effect by the late designer Stuart Rattle.

This substantial singlestorey residence sits atop 1373 square metres of prime land in one of Armadale’s finest tree-bordered streets.

Its rear addition opens to an entertaining area with a pool set in bluestone, and a self-contained cabana and studio.

Ph o t o s b y SIM O N G RIFFITHS

The season of rebirth

S

pring seems such a fitting season to begin my seasonal articles for Domain.

It’s my second-favourite season after winter and it sees the rebirth of our gardens after their long or short winter sleep, depending on where you live in Australia.

For me at Stonefields, it’s even more dramatic; our winters are long and cold and much of the garden is cut back in order to survive the frosts and occasional light snow.

Sleeping under a layer of compost is the best protection we can provide many of our more tender plants and perennials.

Like the rest of Australia, the blossom trees herald the start of spring and I have planted them on mass to create impact and scale to a large garden.

DOM A IN

My favourite are the malus or crabapple trees. They are such hardy trees, flourishing in most of our capital cities (with the exception of high humidity areas); they endure dry conditions and require very little supplementary watering.

My favourite is Malus floribunda and I have planted it in groupings to help soften the corners of my formal hedged gardens, allowing these areas to meld gently with the surrounding natural contours of the outer landscape.

They flower profusely, beginning with tight buds of intense pink that will open slowly and fade to the lightest shade of pink. They require very little maintenance other than formative pruning in their early years.

Malus ioensis is another popular crab-apple used extensively throughout Australian gardens. It flowers slightly later with softer, shell pink balls of flowers.

The one blossom tree we are missing at Stonefields that says ‘spring’ throughout Australia is the flowering, deciduous magnolia tree.

Magnolia soulangeana, or its close cousin denudata, with their white, purple or pink flowers signal the start of spring in many parts of the country. They flower majestically prior to any leaves appearing, making the flowers even more prominent.

Sadly, they are not coping with our increasingly hot summers, so plant them where they receive afternoon shade.

With the current trend in gardening for softer, more organic bed shapes full of flowering plant material, it’s important to prolong the flowering season as long as possible.

I have achieved this by planting differing layers of plants within the one bed.

Spring sees the first layer of flowering bulbs, which emerge and finish flowering in time for the herbaceous perennials to follow in late spring to early summer.

If you don’t have beds of perennials, you can still plant bulbs under deciduous trees or shrubs.

At Stonefields, we have the perfect conditions for tulips – welldrained soil, hot, dry summers and cold winters.

Opposite and above Tulips thrive in Stonefields’ conditions, luxuriant in a layering of plants within one bed.

Right Majestic tendrils of wisteria speak to the dramatic change at Stonefields after winter.

OUR COVER Paul Bangay’s Stonefields, bathed in sunshine. Photography by Simon Griffiths.

“Spring sees the first layer of flowing bulbs, which emerge and finish flowering in time for the herbaceous perennials to follow ... ” This allows us to keep the bulbs in the ground from one season to the next. For gardens that experience warm winters, it will be necessary to replant tulips each year.

Our woodlands are full of bluebells and these carpet all the deeper parts of the beds where little else will grow, they naturalise easily and need very little maintenance.

If your garden is restricted to a balcony or small courtyard, you can still enjoy bulbs by planting them in pots and then changing them to flowering annuals or perennials after they finish flowering. paulbangay.com Above Nourish bulbs in pots on balconies and in small courtyards.

elbourne’s newest masterplanned community is taking shape in Monash.

M-City is a 35,000-square-metre development close to Monash University that comes with all the facilities a mini-city could want.

Construction on the $400 million project started this year. It is a joint venture between the Schiavello and Saraceno development groups and will comprise four apartment towers, a Novotel hotel, commercial offices, a childcare centre and a retail precinct with Kmart and Woolworths.

The M2 building on Blackburn Road is the latest to launch to market and CBRE agent Andrew Leoncelli says it has been very popular. “We think the finish and the architecture is actually the biggest and the best. It has a whole wing that faces north.”

M2 will have 240 apartments, while M1 has 160, and M3 has 140.

Like other centres of urban activity in outer Melbourne such as Box Hill and Doncaster, M-City at Clayton will be transformed into a precinct to be a viable alternative to city living.

The upside of downsizing

S

The second release of apartments in M2 offer contemporary design and attention to detail.

“There’s never been anything actually like M-City before in its location,” Leoncelli says. “We’ve got all of this daytime and night-time retail amenity and seven-day-a-week usage on the doorstep of Monash.”

Buchan Group, the architecture firm that was involved in the expansion of Chadstone shopping centre, is behind the design at M-City. Its plans aim to provide a total living solution for residents including cinemas, a selection of retail stores, cafes, restaurants and al fresco eating areas.

M-City is also on the corner of the Princes Highway. The Wellington Road on-ramp to the Monash Freeway is six minutes away by car.

Prices start at $371,300 for a onebedroom apartment and $539,500 for a two-bedroom apartment in the latest release in the M2 building.

ome call it downsizing, but for others it’s upstyling.

Baby-boomers ditching the family home are often swapping a tired, albeit larger, property for something much more contemporary.

In a brand new apartment, home maintenance becomes a distant memory. Repairing an ageing roof, fixing leaky taps, replacing dated lighting – all gone.

Luminary in Hawthorn is making downsizing genuinely exciting. The four-level complex has 24 apartments, all with standout features such as Cote d’Azur marble, European oak floorboards, walk-in sculleries and al fresco spaces.

All apartments have a minimum of two bathrooms, some threebedrooms also have a powder room.

Best of all, Luminary is still in the heart of what locals love about Hawthorn. Located on Church Street, it’s just one kilometre from Hawthorn station and easily accessible to multiple tram routes.

enovating can be a daunting prospect for many reasons, not least of which is knowing what to spend your hard-earned cash on and when to keep your hand in your pocket. With so many options available, knowing what is worth investing in and what isn’t will make all the difference to your total spend at the end of a project. Here are my top tips on where to save, and where to splurge when renovating:

■

experts will make or break the success of your project and your budget, so listen to their recommendations, look at their prior work, and don’t make decisions based only on price.

Invest in timeless, quality fixtures and fittings that won’t date and will stand the test of time. Splurge on top-quality decorative light fittings in areas that need that wow factor, and good quality tapware throughout. Beautiful finishes such as stone benchtops and splashbacks make a big statement in any renovation.

When choosing appliances, think about the way you live and entertain and choose accordingly – buy that coffee machine if you love

■

coffee, install two ovens if you have a large family and love to cook.

If the layout of your space isn’t working or more natural light can be achieved, don’t be afraid to change your floor plan. While it will add costs to your renovation, the perfect layout can add value to your property and create a home that functions better.

■

Flooring makes a big impact on the look and feel of a home and is not an easy thing to change. Whether it’s floorboards, carpet or tiles, choose the best quality option your budget will allow, stay away from trends and choose flooring that won’t date. This will act as an anchor to your spaces.

Wherever possible, don’t move existing plumbing and electrical points in kitchens and bathrooms.

Working within your existing layout will save you money on tradesmen and fittings.

Save money by using standard sized doors and windows that won’t need to be custom made.

You will benefit from even more savings when it comes time to pick window furnishings and tracks, which will also be standard sizes.

Painting is everyone’s least favourite renovating task, but taking it on yourself will save thousands of dollars. Hiring the right equipment and taking the time to practice is a must! Even if you end up doing just the walls and ceilings and paying an expert to tackle windows, trims and doors, it is well worth it.

■

■

■

Landscaping is another area where savings can be made if you are willing to have a go yourself.

Taking the time to come up with your own garden plan, creating garden beds, planting and even installing simple irrigation systems yourself can reduce your landscaping bill considerably.

When deciding to renovate a kitchen, join the mailing lists of all the large appliance retailers and keep an eye out for their big sales.

There are huge savings to be made just by paying attention to what is happening in the retail market.

There are many flat-pack cabinetry options available that are much more affordable than bespoke cabinetry if you are willing to try installing yourself. Cabinet makers will produce and deliver your cabinets with instructions on installation for a considerable saving, or there are many off-theshelf options.

King Living has collaborated with designer Jeffrey Alan Marks, above, on its new

FELIX FOREST

textile collection.

Calming ripples inspire coastal vibe

H

e’s one of the most soughtafter interior designers in US high-end coastal retreats but Jeffrey Alan Marks is also seriously impressed by Australian residential style.

“Your sense of colour and light is so much better than the US. You’re more experimental in colour from the houses I’ve seen,” Marks says.

The founder of leading US design firm JAM, which specialises in residential and commercial architecture is well known in the US for his television appearances, mainly the program Million Dollar Decorators, which ran from 2011 to 2013.

Now he is working with King Living on the Australian furniture makers’ first international collaboration.

The project came about when Marks was last in Sydney and the brand discovered the designer’s recent foray into fabrics. “My first fabric collection was in the US.

“It was a river rock-inspired collection featuring what I call my take on a floral,” Marks says.

His overall aesthetic is inspired by the beach houses he designs in California and the Hamptons, along with his personal love of the water.

Marks’ new collection plays with relaxed patterns that offer a modern twist on this inherent style. Pops of blue on chalk-white linens feature throughout the line, which complements King Living’s distinctly Australian furniture.

He describes the collaboration as

being less beachy in look than his previous collections, incorporating more neutral colours such as greys, creams and beiges with blue and green undertones.

“This one is more transitional in feeling – more modern, cleaner and cool. It was definitely inspired by my time in [Sydney’s] Palm Beach.

“This fabric is more daring, but it’s a happy collection.”

Marks appreciates Australian design, noting the adventurous approach to residential design and depth of indigenous art.

His King Living fabrics are intended to be used liberally on furniture and decor items such as armchairs, cushions, curtains and lounges. He hopes Australians will feel confident mixing and matching different prints and applying them across expansive surfaces.

“Some of the most interesting households I’ve seen worldwide are in England and Australia, where they

keep mixing [prints and colours],” Marks says.

“Add more colour and it balances out the other colour. More is more.”

When teaming up with King Living, Marks was taken by their visionary yet accessible approach.

“They have a modern approach to classics with contemporary edge.

They’re not creating disposable pieces,” he says.

King Living textile development manager Sebastian Nash says his company’s philosophy is about combining comfort and functionality with style, which Marks’ fabric collection achieves.

“His work naturally aligns with our values on merging engineered quality pieces with a beautiful aesthetic,” he says. “King Living embraces the Australian lifestyle at every turn, and Jeffrey’s coastal charm unifies with this effortlessly.”

Marks’ fabric collection is on display and available exclusively at King Living showrooms.

ulia deVille’s incredible jewellery and taxidermy have a distinctive style, and unsurprisingly, her house feels very much like an extension of her art practice. Her wunderkammerinspired home is a true cabinet of curiosities.

Above her studio and showroom, the jeweller and artist’s home is populated by her own thoughtprovoking artworks and treasured ephemera. Here, ethically sourced taxidermy subjects (deVille only works with creatures who have died of natural causes) hover and perch in every corner.

DeVille bought her warehouse home 11 years ago, and undertook major renovations before moving in.

Downstairs is dedicated to her work, and incorporates her jewellery workshop, showroom and an outdoor courtyard, while upstairs is her apartment, where we find her kitchen, living space and master bedroom.

The industrial and antique finishes throughout the house reflect her

idiosyncratic aesthetic, and the whole home radiates with a distinctly Gothic character.

As a self-described workaholic, deVille says that shifting her showroom out of her bedroom has created a sense of separation between work and home. “The physiological barrier of now living upstairs and working downstairs has actually helped me to overcome this trait,’’ she says.

DeVille characterises her design aesthetic as organic and evolving, based on ‘‘having always been a collector of beautiful things”.

Her most treasured pieces are her Adam Wallacavage octopus chandelier with its looping tentacles, and her own taxidermied Clydesdale mount.

Her location, tucked down a backstreet in vibrant Collingwood, is beloved by the artist as she is surrounded by friends, she says.

DeVille loves that she can walk her dogs to the nearby Collingwood Children’s Farm, but still remains the perfect distance from the city.

It’s been an intensely busy year for deVille. The house, studio and showroom have been a buzzing hive of activity in the lead up to her show Wholeness and Implicit Order at Linden New Art gallery, open until November 4.

DeVille, top right, loves living and working in the inner city. Her home is a showcase for her work, and treasured possessions.

vanhoe East is a quietly supercharged version of Ivanhoe.

The latter is sought-after for its leafy streets, well-kept period houses and belief in the retail powers of strip shopping versus malls, and the same goes doubly for postcode 3079.

The phrase “tightly held” isn’t mere hot air from real estate agents when it comes to this enclave bordered by Maltravers Road to the north, Ivanhoe Public Golf Course to the south, the Yarra River to the east and Townsend Street to the west.

In fact, Ivanhoe East has more in common with Eaglemont to its north than Ivanhoe proper, although parts of Ivanhoe, such as the Fairy Hills Estate, come closest to emulating its village-like atmosphere.

And, Ivanhoe East has entered the $2 million median house price club, outclassing Ivanhoe proper, where the average stands at $1.355 million.

Part of its charm is the air of seclusion generated by the river, bike trails and parkland, although the nearby freeway will take commuters

to the city in less than 10 minutes (not in peak hour, of course).

The local shopping centre, on Lower Heidelberg Road, is a bijou version of the strip shopping on Upper Heidelberg Road.

The area is also home to The Boulevard, where grand art deco homes are tarted up for Christmas with lavish light displays.

Other tree-lined streets including Wallis Avenue, Otterington Grove and Hardy Terrace are in demand, while the heritage-protected

Beauview Estate precinct – featuring houses built in the neo-Tudor or English domestic revival styles – are also keenly sought after. East Ivanhoe residents, as they prefer to be called, enjoy their difference. They oppose any suggestion that The Boulevard’s narrow stretches – a roughly patched mix of gravel and bitumen – be fixed. No suburb is an island, but this comes close.

THE BLOCK INSIDER B y NATA SHA DICKINS

The small rooms with a big impact

Improve bathing According to research by Reece, the shower is more crucial to the overall bathroom experience than any other element. “The impact of water connecting with your body has the ability to shift your mood,” Santilli says.

A popular style for en suites is the twin. “It’s also called the marriage shower,” she said. “Men prefer a big overhead shower for the ultimate drenching, but women don’t always like to get their hair wet. Being able to switch between the overhead and hand shower provides the best of both worlds.”

If you have the space, a freestanding bath helps create a personal retreat. “Choose one with organic curves and a high back for head support during a long soak,” says Santilli.

Create a sense of luxury While adding new towels and highend accessories helps a bathroom look luxurious, tiles make up most of the hard surfaces and are the key to setting style foundations.

Winners of The Block main bathroom week, Courtney and Hans went for luxe by choosing terrazzo and large-format tiles. “These are two big trends at the moment,” says Vanessa Thompson, strategic designer with Beaumont Tiles.

She suggests large tiles for floor and walls, with detail such as mosaic on feature walls and splashbacks.

“Considering the overall style of the home adds to the narrative, and matching splashbacks across all wet areas is a simple way to do this.”

With tiles comes grout. “A contrasting grout will hero the tile, but a matching grout will create a seamless horizon-style look.”

Add a little privacy The en suite is an extension of the main bedroom and is a very personal space, says architect Pedro Garcia of Tamsopaya. “You have to feel comfortable and relaxed, it’s intimate and where you are most vulnerable,” he says. It should avoid feeling crowded and allow room for grooming and dressing.

Santilli agrees. “It’s where you can express and display items to suit your everyday lifestyle rather than have them on show for visitors who tend to use the main bathroom.”

Make homes feel bigger The en suite is often small, so making it feel as light and roomy as possible can add a sense of proportion to the rest of the house.

One trick is to ensure two people can use the room at the same time.

Santilli says a double wall-hung vanity, in-wall toilet suite and frameless shower screen will free up the floor.

Tiles can create the illusion of space. Thompson likes to use a dark, timber-look on the floor, especially if it matches the rest of the flooring in the house. “Then use a lighter, large format on the walls to draw the eye upwards and out.”

CHANNEL NINE

T

raditionally the en suite was a small utility room adjoining the master bedroom, but we’ve come a long way from using bathrooms simply for washing.

“An en suite is where an individual has the convenience of grooming and relaxing without sharing the space with the extended household,” says Daniela Santilli, bathroom marketing leader at Reece.

Here are six more reasons why an en suite should be top priority:

Kerrie and Spence’s en suite on The Block uses lighter tiles in a herringbone pattern

Increase the value

to draw the eye

“An en suite is generally the first solution to installing an additional bathroom, and some buyers won’t even look at property if there’s no en suite,” says Megan Smith, residential sales consultant with Ray White Balmain.

She said many entry-level properties don’t offer a second bathroom, but some buyers are looking to install down the track.

“I’ve had situations where we’ve engaged a builder to provide an en suite installation quote to advise potential buyers.

“My top tip would be to have a separate bath and shower if you have the space.”

upwards.

Boost bathroom storage The Block judges put storage at the top of the bathroom must-have list.

In main bathroom week, the teams who installed eye-level storage behind mirrors and deep undervanity drawers scored the points.

In an en suite, scrimping on storage and work surfaces such as the bench surrounding the vanity basin is a common mistake.

Garcia’s top space-saving tip is to take space from the main bedroom by installing a double wall. “It should be 300-400 millimetres thick so you can conceal shelving and lighting in the wall.”

‘Great architecture has no gender’

O

ne of the world’s best known female architects of the modern era, Marion Mahony Griffin, is said to have spent her life making husband Walter Burley Griffin look good. Today, women in the industry prefer to receive due credit. And while there is still a disparity between the number of female architecture graduates and those who end up in senior roles, Australia has enough fine examples to give the next generation hope of more credit.

Most of these women feature on Marion’s List, a relatively new public register of women in architecture set

up by Parlour, the industry’s nonprofit advocate for equity and diversity.

Twenty of the best feature in Maven Publishing’s recently released Chasing the Sky, 20 Stories of Women in Architecture, including Clare Cousins, national president of the Australian Institute of Architects (one of five women on the board), Kerstin Thompson – who was this year named a life fellow at the AIA for both her work and her impact on the industry and education – Rachel Nolan of Kennedy Nolan, Virginia Kerridge and Hannah Tribe.

“There are many more female role models now,” says Nolan. “At university level there’s more gender equity in tutors too. In our own world [at Kennedy Nolan] we feel gender balance exists.”

More women are involved in projects beyond the private residentials previously associated with the “female architect”. Cousins and Nolan are heavily invested in the Nightingale project, a designer-led multi-residential housing development project in Brunswick.

TOM FERGUSON

Dean Dewhirst is author of Chasing the Sky and says his book is a celebration of contemporary Australian architecture at its best.

“We were trying to show that great architecture has no gender,” he told industry website, architectureau. com. ‘‘When asked about their gender in relation to their job, many female architects avoided comparisons with their male counterparts.’’

“I am an architect who happens to be female,” says Arque co-director Emma Rees-Raaijmakers, who formed her practice alongside Suzanne Green in 2012. “You don’t talk about female doctors or lawyers any more.”

Rachel Nolan too feels satisfied with the gender equity in her immediate professional circle, and points to other female leaders in Australia, including Amy Muir, AIA Victorian chapter president; her predecessor Vanessa Bird, with the

Women architects are heading up game-changing projects, such as the first carbon-positive home in Victoria from Cousins, and Hannah Tribe’s ambitious adaption of Sydney CBD’s heritage Tyne House.

“We need women in architecture,’’ says Arque’s Rees-Raaijmakers. ‘‘We need women to be equally responsible for planning and designing the future of our cities.”

The keyword here is “equally” – while there’s a need to promote women in the industry, the greater goal for Parlour et al is to remove the novelty factor and arrive at balanced diversity.

It could be said that female interior designers have already arrived.

Game-changing examples hark back to Marion Hall Best, Mary Featherston and Janne Faulkner.

Not only are women now the norm but interior design as a practice has, according to Meryl Hare, “come of age”.

Hare, who founded her interior design practice in 1988, recalls “some builders and architects being polite but patronising. You had to ‘earn your stripes’ before being taken seriously, whereas today, there seems to be less gender bias”.

Arent & Pyke is a 10-year-old female-driven interiors practice in such demand that clients hire them before choosing an architect.

“We often have people approach us first and then we help them find an architect,” says co-founder SarahJane Pyke. “That was the case for Curatorial House, where we introduced our clients to Luke Moloney.”

Arent & Pyke and Hare run teams of women. “I would love to be more gender neutral,” says Hare, “but [we] rarely receive applications from men.”

Nolan and her business partner Patrick Kennedy also run an unusually female-heavy architectural practice, and their team have had an “incredible amount of babies” over the years, meaning 50 per cent of the women now work part-time.

For Nolan, diversity needs to start with unloading the industry of its male-versus-female debate. “It’s dangerous to place too much importance on the architect’s gender ... It’s all just design for us.”

The practise of working together for a better built environment was epitomised by Walter and Marion Burley Griffin and continues today.

Ensuring the appropriate recognition is paid equally to both genders is still a work in progress.

Kenyan homes have been attracting interest from local and British and Italian buyers.

Trailblazing design captures the eye

T

he Danish author Karen Blixen’s 1937 memoir Out of Africa is a vivid snapshot of her life on a coffee plantation in Kenya under British colonial rule.

Kenya declared independence in the mid-1960s. Today, one of the most affluent parts of the capital Nairobi is the suburb of Karen, which occupies land where Blixen’s farm once stood.

For Kenya’s elite, dream homes have traditionally come in the form of English country-style mansions on sprawling acreages with teams of private security and household staff.

According to Inside View Kenya 2018, Knight Frank’s latest report on the east African country’s prime residential market, that dream is changing. Instead there is a growing preference for high-end villas within gated communities.

One such development is Deerpark Karen, a collection of 10 luxury villas in a neighbourhood near some of Kenya’s best schools, shopping centres, restaurants and hospitals.

The number of high net-worth individuals in Kenya has doubled to

about 9400 over the past decade.

Target buyers for Deerpark Karen include wealthy Kenyans and expats working in the city, which has become a major regional hub with a booming fast-moving consumer goods sector.

Boogertman + Partners Architects Kenya – whose previous projects include Nelson Mandela’s family home in Mozambique – designed the upscale development.

Architect Johann de Wet says most wealthy buyers no longer want to pay the costs associated with large tracts of land in an urban setting.

“They want the ability to lock up and go, and the reassurance of shared security, back-up water and electricity,” de Wet says. “Such is the mobility of the modern urbanite.”

Deerpark Karen is a trailblazer for Kenya in more ways than one. Not only does it offer an exclusive, gated community of a style more commonly seen in Malibu or the Hollywood Hills, the architecture also breaks with tradition.

Instead of traditional pitched roof lines, the villas are contemporary, angular, flat-roofed constructions, set on more than 2000 square metres of private land with several courtyards, a garden, pool and gym.

“This is not typical of homes in gated communities, but from my experience, communal facilities in developments are rarely used as they don’t provide home-owners with the privacy to entertain guests,” de Wet says. “We have prioritised each home owner’s privacy in this model.”

Inside, open-plan living spaces are flooded with natural light, courtesy of oversized windows and sliding doors. Mature trees in the grounds further enhance privacy, while also

providing residents with a lush outlook.

Security measures include CCTV and electronic chip and pin access in every house. The design incorporates solar water heating, wastewater is treated and re-used for gardening.

The first residents are expected to move in within the next few months.

Knight Frank is currently marketing three villas, priced from 120 million Kenyan shillings ($A1.62 million).

House prices in Nairobi boomed between 2010 and 2012, rising more than 30 per cent a year. This was followed by a slowdown, exacerbated by banking regulations that deterred banks from lending to individuals.

Knight Frank predicts a recovery in 2018 “as the current wave of political uncertainty draws to a close”.

Away from Nairobi, Kenyan holiday homes have been attracting interest beyond the usual internal market.

British and Italian buyers have been snapping up homes on the coastline around Malindi, Watamu and Lamu, as well as in rural areas close to Mount Kenya and within private game reserves.

town style and milliondollar views in this Tom Robertson-designed St Kilda penthouse.

Domesticating the penthouse

Family living meets up-

W

ith a design distinction between apartments and stand-alone residential, it’s unusual for an architect to receive instructions to make a four-bedroom penthouse “very homey” for a young family “including kids and a dog”.

That’s the brief Tom Robertson got from his clients for the first fortunate commission that came into his newly set up Richmond practice. The 350-square-metre, whole-floor penthouse on the fourth level of a conversion-to-residential office building was in an amazing position on the city side of St Kilda hill. As an extra, it had a private 100-squaremetre roof deck above.

Because its outlook to the north was over low-level suburbia, both floors enjoy panoramas across Melbourne to the Dandenongs, and to Port Phillip Bay in three directions.

It was a new structure atop a 1970s building and had all the trappings of a prestige super apartment. And while Bec van der Sluys – wife of the Vanda Projects developer who’d converted the building into 14 apartments – was a professional stylist and it was her family that would occupy it, the instructions were specific: “They didn’t want it to feel like an apartment.”

That accounts for what Robertson says “is a lot of softer materials ... the Blackbutt primary ceilings, the kids’ quarters, with a rumpus room, a desk and in-built seating under which all the board games can be kept”. Other areas included the greenery in the planter boxes surrounding the oversheltered north terrace off the kitchen. (Plants also domesticate the outlook from the living areas.)

He says: “Bec was very keen on a highly functional kitchen where the kids could get fed at the kitchen bench and where guests could cluster.”

Robertson makes it all sound so practical. In working around an elongated north-south floor plan and under a Blackbutt-battened ceiling of 3.2 metres, functionality is always to the fore. But a quiet tone of luxury is never out of the picture.

The whole wall splashback and 4.5metre kitchen bench with lengthy cantilever is of figured marble “that’s not too glossy”. The walk-in pantry with the second dishwasher is perhaps standard for a penthouse.

The dumb waiter to the rooftop is not. Neither is the “pretty fantastic” quantity of natural light that comes from perimeter windows that line three voids that chip into the floor plan, making for an apartment of unusual form. Something Robertson still marvels at is the full-length central corridor.

“You step out of the lift and look straight down the 35-metre long central axis and see out through windows at either end. This linear corridor was one of the main drivers for the lineality of the (timber) ceilings.”

With fellow stylist Simone Hagg, van der Sluys did all the furnishings and artwork selection and with a rouge-coloured banquette set near the kitchen, they built in a witty moment of unabashed extravagance.

As a piece, Robertson says: “It catches you off guard. But it’s a lovely place to sit with a glass of wine while the sous chef prepares dinner; a bit of old-school luxury.” tomrobertson.com.au See more inspiring projects by Australia’s talented architects: domain.com.au/living/design
