Come to Shiro Architects for award-winning spaces to feel good about
In June 2017, Shiro Architects’ founder and design director Hiromi Lauren won the 2017 Queensland state Institute of Architects prize for commercial architecture for its design of the Gold Coast KDV Golf and Tennis Academy: http://bit.ly/2g2b3J9
At around the same time, although she never set out specifically to design houses, we
've been invited to submit three of our as yet unbuilt residences for possible inclusion in Australia’s most popular residential architecture TV show, Grand Designs Australia. And even before that, Shiro Architects was awarded acclaim for “design excellence” when invited to contest a limited-entrant, three-party, invitation-only competition on a landmark residential site in Parramatta, NSW, hosted by Parramatta City Council. Hiromi has extensive multi-residential design experience gained while working over 20 years with Harry Seidler and Associates. She won Harry’s esteem not least when, working on North Apartments in Sydney’s Goulburn Street, she managed to design an extra unit into each of 11 of its 16 floors to secure the client an unexpected windfall of around $5 million on its investment. She is interviewed in Australian Design Review here: http://bit.ly/2utj4NU.
