Kinglake Hotel project is a project that is in the very heart of Kinglake. The town was devastated by bushfires 2 years ago and is now slowly rebuilding itself. This project at the surviving hotel is designed to attract tourists to a new Provedore and bottleshop offering whilst still maintaining the original country pub for locals. Designed to be big, rustic and bold – the tower element will be a symbol of Kinglake’s continuing resilience. Currently the project is in town planning and we hope to see the building being built in the new year. This project continues our work in creative re-use; we were able to advocate the retention of the old bottle shop as a viable retail outlet for the new Provedore section.

Our practice participated in an Ideas Competition for an ECO-RESORT in the sensitive area of Ningaloo which is located in the north west of Western Australia. The project is on a highly sensitive site and the aim of the project was to devise a way for tourists to come and enjoy the natural beauty of the area without destroying the fragile eco-system of this world renowned area.
