Baby Burt in North Perth, completed in 2025, is the latest addition to our single-residence portfolio.

Developed on a subdivision constrained to a width of ~10m, we’ve created a spacious and beautiful home around the client’s lifestyle oriented brief.

The house has essentially been conceived as a concrete tube, cantilevered over a textured base.

A combination of metal screening and on-site planting provides thermal and privacy benefits to the living spaces on the upper storey.

We have used the site’s natural fall to the rear (North) to increase the volume of the lower level, where the entertaining spaces look out to the beautifully landscaped garden.

It was a big weekend for Architecture, with Presentations to Jury for the Architecture Awards (WA Chapter) hosted at Notre Dame, Fremantle on Saturday.

Our morning began early, with principal David Hillam starting the day's proceedings with a presentation on Baby Burt, a North Perth single residence completed in 2025. This is a project that responds directly to the client brief, while considering a sustainable, design-led approach to increased density in our inner suburbs.

Senior Associate Louise Ward presented in the multiple residency category later in the afternoon, featuring Broadway on the Bay adjacent to the Crawley foreshore. Broadway is inspired by the Art Deco aesthetic found in the existing context, creating a contemporary design language that provides a through-line from the exterior, to the shared amenities, and into the interior apartments.

Hillam Architects thanks the Institute for the opportunity to present among our esteemed colleagues and judges. This year's awards features a very strong field, and we're proud to be a part of it.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Architecture is an art, and it begins with love.

This year, we asked some of our staff to share their first or most influential architectural crush.

Cathedrals, Temples, Hollywood and an Australian Beach House - there's a lot to love.

Share your Valentine in the comments!

One distinct advantage of designing high-end apartments is thinking forward about how people live. With Australian life expectancy getting longer, lifestyle living needs to address the quality of that life.⁠
⁠
At Harper on Swan, we are pleased to incorporate a dedicated wellness centre into the shared amenities, in addition to gym and pool features. On site amenities like this remove barriers to engagement, making it easier for residents to live well, longer.⁠

It's been a great year for Hillam Architects - the recognition of Montreal Commons at the WA Architecture Awards in two categories (Sustainability and Multiple Housing), the completion of Rivière Residences (Central and East Towers), Broadway on the Bay, and the bespoke 'Baby Burt' single residence.

But as we look forward to taking a quick rest, we cannot help but reflect on the conflicts large and small throughout the world.

In a diverse practice such as ours, our personal relationships put us and our families on both sides of some of these conflicts, which is a reminder to us all that we are more connected to each other than divided.

We wish you all peace for the holiday season and the year to come.

We will return to the office on Monday, January 5th, 2026.

Thank you to everyone who contributed, and a special thanks to our staff, who donated their time, talent and money to help achieve our goal for this incredibly worthy cause.

Throwback Thursday: Stone Street, South Perth

Stone Street was a significant project for a fledging practice, commissioned in 1997 by the same client as our Riverside Apartments project in Como.

Featuring a single apartment per level over nine levels, this project pushed height limits at the time, incorporating a mezzanine into the penthouse level.

The building form, including the sculptural northern wall, navigated privacy challenges, while maximising aspect to the river.

The recently completed Broadway on the Bay project in Crawley tells a compelling story of design to completion.

Complex projects delivered over years sometimes require significant changes, but Hillam’s long experience in the field means we design with the clear intent to deliver on the vision.

Our team is extremely proud of maintaining the design aesthetic and form on this project.
