Retail, Office and Residential Mixed Use proposal


A corner site along an intended major thoroughfare from a major highway to a local shopping precinct presented the opportunity to create an icon building for the area.  Shops or a cafe occupy the ground floor with office space above and to the corner location a couple of upmarket residential units overlook the whole area with vantage views.  Parking is hidden at the rear with access through the open ground floor. The owner wanted a modern building with a touch of old style flair.

Unit Development of 5 homes.


A modest 5 unit development for the Armadale area with rear courtyards overlooking an open park of  3 bed 2 bathroom homes suitable for the first home buyers or retirees looking for easy care homes with a big lawn to stretch on that some one else mows.



Each home is slightly different but they all have lock up garages and an alfresco overlooking a small easy to manage garden area

These homes are to be built by Kidron Constructions.

Renovations don't have to look like an addition!


The relatively high costs of a renovation can be a great opportunity to raise the street profile and the increase the value of your existing home.  This can help bring it into the current market for style, updating both the shape and colours.

Double Storey with Outlook

Another Amano Homes custom design, to take advantage of the lots outlook over preserved native bushland whilst presenting a contemporary view to the street.
The home also presents a glass facade to allow internal penetration of the Northern winter sun whilst being protected by eave overhang from the harsh summer sun.
