BREEZEWAY
This Victorian terraced house was in a very ‘original’ and somewhat dilapidated condition. The intrusive single-storey rear addition was replaced with a new full width two storey addition containing open plan living spaces and a kitchen addressing a rear covered entertaining deck and garden. The clients envisaged creating a sense of openness and uninterrupted views through to the rear garden from the entry sequence. Their vision also encapsulated the existing brick of the adjoining boundary wall, appreciating its industrial, raw texture in contrast to the smooth, natural tones of plywood wall cladding. The simple material expression informs the rear elevation which works hard to conceal its inner workings to achieve a simple elegant form.
Client feedback:

We work differently.
We have a great collaborative team
We consult earlier with builders and other experts during design and development to produce thoughtful and considered work of exceptional quality.
We’re all about balance
We create uplifting spaces that surprise and delight, and balance functionality with aesthetics and budget.
Budgets are just as important to us as they are to you
Budgets are a constraint we welcome. Actually, we find constraints of any kind often steer us to find creative, cost-effective ways to meet your vision.
Sydney’s inner city is our forte
Sydney’s inner city is full of charms and challenges. We know ways to make the most from available space, capture natural light, respond to existing character and heritage, and discover the hidden potential that brings personality and joy to all our projects.
We embrace your vision
We help translate your vision into spaces tailored to the way you want to live, work, and play.
Our clients recommend us to others
Our clients are so happy with the work that they recommend us. 80% of our work has been with clients who contacted us after hearing about and seeing our work.
May 2021 Update:
After 8 years of building great foundations and a growing network of collaborators, Paul and Amanda are very excited to announce that Paul (ie. the to-date silent 'P' in PandA) has now officially joined Amanda to help manage projects in all aspects across design and delivery.
Coming full circle after meeting as architecture students in 1999 (Kent Institute of Art and Design, Canterbury, UK), and having since worked at opposite ends of the architectural spectrum, Amanda and Paul are excited now to share the wealth of their combined experience and knowledge with a broad range of current and future projects and clients.
