BMA was engaged to refine and develop an approved design for alterations to a small semi detached house in Bronte. While the front of the house remains predominantly intact, a new split level kitchen, dining and living pavilion opens onto a courtyard and plunge pool, completely transforming the home.

Our design strategy to lower the living room floor level promoted seamless connection with the rear plunge pool courtyard, and created a beautifully daylit living space with generous ceiling height. Smart joinery design defined the transition between living and dining spaces.

Once the amended design had been approved by Council, BMA completed the project documentation, and then administered the building contract on behalf of our client. Construction was completed in 2015.

“ROBINSONS RUN 2022 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.”
