Austin Maynard Architects — Garden Design in Carlton, VIC

I came to Austin Maynard Architects with just an idea. I wanted to buy a block on which it would be possible to have two houses, plus a shared building and a productive garden - but not in the outer suburbs. I loved their Tower House project, the fact it wasn’t built up, but was spread around and it was beautiful. I wanted my home to be beautiful. That mattered. Now I have a beautiful house and the grandchildren love coming here, it’s like a little village for them. We’ve found a new way of achieving communal living.

In the search for an architect, Austin Maynard Architects were fully aligned with our philosophy and had the track record to demonstrate talent and passion for sustainability. Their works were respectful of the past but not constrained by conformity or classical styles. There was genuineness in the sustainable philosophy of practice. Each of their houses had their own uniqueness in design cleverly incorporating the needs of their clients with an infusion fun and extraordinary aesthetics. The outcome of our engagement with AMA speaks for itself. Our sanctuary has been created and the effect on our lives has been profound. The house has an uncanny ability to draw a passing glance back, then saturate the senses with its elements and invite exploration for surprise and delight. The connection of the inside of the house with the outside has allowed that joy to be shared with visitors, neighbours and passers-by alike. Our brief has been fulfilled in ways we have never imagined and are still discovering!" - Hilton and Vaan, HELVETIA
