//Banksia House

Now Under Construction ✨

A right-sized home, thoughtfully designed to evolve with the family through every stage of life.
Driven by passive design principles, energy efficiency, and everyday comfort, the home embraces natural light, framed garden views, and a seamless connection between indoors and out. Established native vegetation has been carefully retained, ensuring the landscape remains an integral part of the experience.
More than a home, this project reflects the power of genuine client-architect collaboration and embodies RA's commitment to creating sustainable, timeless architecture.
We look forward to bringing this vision to life.

Stay tuned for updates.

Intergenerational Living:
Cooper Townhouses demonstrates how thoughtful architectural design can address the complex needs of contemporary family structures. By prioritizing accessibility, flexibility, and community connection, R Architecture has created homes that support multiple generations living together harmoniously while maintaining individual privacy and independence.

The project’s commercial success, evidenced by swift sales, confirms the growing market demand for housing that can adapt to changing family compositions over time, and can support the growing cultural shift towards intergenerational living.

//Cooper Townhouses

Cooper Townhouses comprises nine two-storey residences, each delivering the space and amenity of a larger home within a compact 70–80m² footprint. We designed intelligent layouts offering 3–4 bedrooms, with the flexibility to adapt a smaller room into a dedicated study. Generous basement storage provides further versatility, with potential uses ranging from a workshop to a cellar.

Working with the site’s natural fall, we designed a partially underground basement that minimises excavation costs while delivering secure parking and valuable additional space.

Beyond the individual homes, we created a development that fosters a sense of community. Intimate clusters of two to three townhouses are connected by landscaped open spaces and a shared pedestrian pathway leading towards Cooper Reserve. Raised planters soften the pathway, while private courtyards give every home its own outdoor retreat.
A considered approach to space, topography and connection - creating homes that are compact in footprint but generous in possibility.

// TCW

TCW is now under construction, and we are excited to share this milestone with you.

The interior palette at TCW takes inspiration from the natural beauty of the Barossa Valley, bringing together earthy tones, rich textures, and warm, understated finishes.

Selected materials add depth and character, while a carefully balanced mix of colours and finishes creates a sense of warmth and comfort. Each space feels connected to the surrounding vineyard, with a relaxed yet refined atmosphere that invites guests to slow down, settle in, and enjoy the experience. The result is an interior that feels authentic, timeless, and welcoming, reflecting the character of the winery and its landscape.

//Brick-Box House

Brick-Box House delivers just that—a thoughtfully designed upgrade tailored for parents and adult children living under one roof. The house’s external brick forms are not only a visual anchor—they also play an integral role in shaping the home’s light and thermal performance. The hit-and-miss brickwork along the north-western façade allows dappled sunlight to filter into the main living areas, creating a dynamic interplay of light and shadow throughout the day. This element softens the harsh afternoon sun while preserving openness and warmth inside.

//TCW

TCW is now under construction, and we're excited to share this milestone with you.

Bringing together a welcoming cellar door, tasting room, event space, and luxury accommodation pods, TCW is thoughtfully embedded within the existing vineyard landscape.

Inspired by the iconic rural farm shed, the design reinterprets this agricultural vernacular through a contemporary architectural lens. Robust materials, textured metal cladding, layered interiors, and carefully curated finishes create a destination that feels both grounded and refined.

More than a wine-tasting destination, TCW is designed as an immersive experience, expressing the winery's unique character while inviting guests to linger, explore, and connect with its story.

//Brick box House

Set in a leafy pocket of Burwood, just a stone’s throw from Gardiners Creek, Brick-Box House is shaped by its natural setting and the unique geometry of its triangular site. A tall gum tree at the rear becomes a focal point, with the L-shaped footprint wrapping around it to create a protected north-eastern courtyard—an ideal space for entertaining, framed by a textured brick backdrop.
The home is arranged into two distinct pavilions, both at ground and first floor levels. On the ground floor, one wing contains the main family living zone, while the other offers a more retreat-like second living area. Upstairs, the split layout separates the parents’ wing from the adult children’s wing, maintaining a sense of independence while remaining under the same roof.
The house’s external brick forms are not only a visual anchor—they also play an integral role in shaping the home’s light and thermal performance. The hit-and-miss brickwork along the north-western façade allows dappled sunlight to filter into the main living areas, creating a dynamic interplay of light and shadow throughout the day. This element softens the harsh afternoon sun while preserving openness and warmth inside.

//Brick-Box House

Recycled brick, polished concrete, and warm timber come together to create a space that feels grounded, tactile, and deeply connected to its origins. 🌿✨
The integrated timber shelving seamlessly blends everyday life into the architecture—creating a home designed not to impress at first glance, but to grow richer with time. With honest detailing, subtle plays of light, and a flexible layout, it’s built to adapt to modern family life while feeling lived-in from day one.
