Rob Kennon Architects

Words by Bronwyn Marshall Deviating from the typical style of terrace typology, Princes Hill House is imbued with a sense of openness to create a more connected interior that utilises the entire site. Rob Kennon Architects focuses on extending the existing linear form and creating a moment of arrival at the rear that links to the private, landscaped outdoor space, all bathed in a newfound lightness.

Words by Bronwyn Marshall The transformation of a historical warehouse into a contemporary home, Ackmans House draws from the unique character of its site without deterring from its original fabric. Rob Kennon Architects both celebrates the building’s existing charm and folds in new elevated gestures to complement the form. Originally built in the 1960s and an integral part of the industrial fabric of Fitzroy, Ackmans House brings a newly refined sense of purpose to the site.

Words by Bronwyn Marshall A composition of built forms and a series of open walled gardens, House on a Lane explores the concept of recessive architectural gestures as a means to integrate respectfully among existing heritage buildings. Rob Kennon Architects carefully folds in the needs of the contemporary family brief with moments of relief and outward connections to create a balanced and calming abode.
