Expansion for growing family

This north facing rear addition has been designed as two side-by-side pavilions, one private containing the master bedroom suite, bathroom and laundry; the other public, containing the open plan living/kitchen opening onto a covered rear deck. Large areas of glazing are protected from summer sun, yet devised to harness the thermal benefits of the winter sun, while re orientating the living space towards the garden.

panda studio architecture. We work differently.We have a great collaborative teamWe consult earlier with builders and other experts during design and development to produce thoughtful and considered work of exceptional quality.We’re all about balanceWe create uplifting spaces that surprise and delight, and balance functionality with aesthetics and budget.Budgets are just as important to us as they are to youBudgets are a constraint we welcome. Actually, we find constraints of any kind often steer us to find creative, cost-effective ways to meet your vision.Sydney’s inner city is our forteSydney’s inner city is full of charms and challenges. We know ways to make the most from available space, capture natural light, respond to existing character and heritage, and discover the hidden potential that brings personality and joy to all our projects.We embrace your visionWe help translate your vision into spaces tailored to the way you want to live, work, and play.Our clients recommend us to othersOur clients are so happy with the work that they recommend us. 80% of our work has been with clients who contacted us after hearing about and seeing our work.May 2021 Update:After 8 years of building great foundations and a growing network of collaborators, Paul and Amanda are very excited to announce that Paul (ie. the to-date silent 'P' in PandA) has now officially joined Amanda to help manage projects in all aspects across design and delivery.Coming full circle after meeting as architecture students in 1999 (Kent Institute of Art and Design, Canterbury, UK), and having since worked at opposite ends of the architectural spectrum, Amanda and Paul are excited now to share the wealth of their combined experience and knowledge with a broad range of current and future projects and clients.
