About the Project

Long before the doors opened, the local community watched Chelsea Kindergarten take shape, knowing what it would mean for growing families in Melbourne’s bayside south.

Delivered as a double-storey childcare hub, the project features five generous classrooms and outdoor play areas across both levels, creating a seamless flow between indoor learning and outdoor discovery. Every square metre balances effortless functionality for educators with an inspiring environment for children.

The build was about more than hitting milestones; it was about creating a distinct sense of place and a vital community anchor that supports connection from the very beginning.

Our Projects

Located on Hilda Street and Electra Street, the project comprises 19 apartments on Hilda Street and 21 apartments on Electra Street. Designed with a focus on quality, functionality and long-term liveability, the developments create comfortable and well-considered homes within established residential neighbourhoods.

The project contributes to Homes Victoria’s broader commitment to delivering secure, high-quality housing, with considered architectural responses that balance resident needs, site context and the surrounding community.

Homage is a collection of five residences in Ivanhoe’s Fairy Hills, drawing on the suburb’s history of grand riverside estates along the Yarra since the 1840s. Each home presents a monolithic, stone-faced façade echoing that classical heritage, wrapped around a fully modern interior.

Set among shaded, largely unchanged streets minutes from the village and city, materials such as oak herringbone flooring, natural stone, and custom joinery are chosen to age well over a lifetime. Homage stands as a modern interpretation of classical proportion, continuing Ivanhoe’s legacy rather than simply referencing it.

Positioned along the Mornington Peninsula coastline, this bespoke residence reflects thoughtful design, exceptional craftsmanship and a strong connection to its surroundings. Every detail has been carefully considered to create a home that balances refined living with everyday functionality, resulting in a residence that is both timeless and enduring.

A benchmark in quality developments.
