By Ballast Point
With the help of Andrew Burges Architects, we converted a rundown 1800s cottage into a masterpiece of modern Australian architecture. Ballast Point managed this development from purchase advice and planning approval through to project management, selection of designers, consultants and construction. We worked in close partnership with Structure Engineering, Partridge Partners and many others to create something truly special.

Ballast Point is an integrated architecture and construction company that works with discerning clients on high-quality projects, both big and small, in suburbs including Balmain, Balmain East, Birchgrove, Rozelle, and throughout Sydney.
If you’re looking for a builder, we can do everything a property owner needs, from maintenance, roof repairs, and chimney repairs to building wine cellars and major renovations, extensions, and refurbishments. Our architects ensure that every project reflects the highest standards of design & build.
At Ballast Point, we believe that relationships are paramount. We love working with clients to ascertain what they need from us and delivering a tailored solution. Our architects start each conversation with “what do you need?” rather than “this is what we do.” We aim to change the way buildings are created so our clients feel inspired, informed, and supported. We exist to help our clients transform their houses into something truly exceptional that enriches their life through thoughtful architecture and design & build excellence.
We are constantly learning and evolving; redefining what a design & build company can be. Our architecture team does not place limits on ourselves. We embrace new technology to create systems that work for our clients, staff, collaborators, and the community.
