We approached Bennett Murada for some ideas to help us navigate a potential development next door which had us despondent. We needed to balance the need for more privacy with making the rooms functional for our family. We already had a nice home with some character but the spaces didn’t work. Some clever ideas have seen our home completely transformed. Every space is maximised and light-filled – it feels like our home has doubled in size and is appropriate for our three growing children. We are really proud of the enhanced Federation characteristics which the whole street benefits from and loves. These features were achieved while still delivering the benefits of a brand-new home. We were given expert advice throughout the whole process down to details including flooring, finishes, appliances, fixtures & fittings. The team at Bennett Murada worked seamlessly with our builders to avoid delays and deliver a product we are extremely happy with.

We have fond memories enjoying Robinson’s Run with our kids as they grew up and saw an opportunity to capture those memories and start a new chapter in its history. Our vision was for a beautiful, responsible, and uniquely Australian house where friends could gather and enjoy the luxuries of open space and downtime. We love the Australian bush and wanted the house to capture its raw sensations, celebrate the landscape, and encourage guests to experience the elements. The house nurtures, protects and excites as you experience the spaces, and the raw, reclaimed and textured materials enhance the journey.

Given a brief to explore the possibility of applying the Complying Development Housing Code to our property, Bennett Murada delivered an outstanding design concept that challenged our thinking but provided the best use of space on a small Inner Sydney block. The end result has delivered us an amazing new family home that has exceeded all expectations, whilst not being imposing, yet architecturally beautiful. As a team Bennett Murada were along side us throughout the whole design process and also asssited is during construction by reinforcing our ideas whilst maintaining the foundation of the design. We could not recommend more highly Bennett Murada for any future architectural projects.

I have always felt a deep connection with Sydney’s rocky coastline and beaches. At Tama, I saw an opportunity to create a peaceful haven for my time in Sydney, an environment aligned with my active lifestyle, and eventually, a place to raise a family. My brief was for a timeless home that contributed positively to the neighbourhood. I wanted to experience both expansive, breathtaking moments and quiet, private ones. The design rigour, build quality and sustainability exceed all expectations. But mostly, I love the experience of living in this house, and sharing this with family and friends.
