Goonoo Goonoo Station banner

Once a small country town in its own right, Goonoo Goonoo Station is adapted as a venue for accommodation and fine dining while providing facilities for expansive or intimate functions. The exceptional historic architecture of the farm buildings was carefully managed to preserve the unique atmosphere of the rustic setting while providing the services required in the 21st century. Special attention is paid to the patina of the original stone and timber construction when introducing new materials and finishes. Goonoo Goonoo Station includes adaptations of the original Homestead, Manager’s Office, Shearer’s Quarters as well as the Woolstore, now the award-winning Glasshouse Restaurant.

Capability
We provide a comprehensive range of architectural services, from project inception to completion. We have experience in projects with a wide range of construction values – both large and small. We balance the resource needs of all projects and have the capability to service complex projects with the appropriate resources.

Sustainability
TKD has a long and award-winning track record in delivering environmentally and ecologically sustainable outcomes and we approach every project with the aim of maximising environmental and ecological sustainability. We also understand that the “greenest” building may be one that already exists, and has proven experience in breathing new life into existing buildings in innovative ways to ensure their functionality, appeal and use are maximised

In July 2019, TKD Architects became a founding signatory of Architects Declare, Australia. We acknowledge the twin crises of climate breakdown and biodiversity loss are the most serious issue of our time and that globally, buildings and construction play a major part, accounting for nearly 40% of energy-related carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions whilst also having a significant impact on our natural habitats. TKD Architects will promote and support the Architects Declare agenda through our projects and office practices.

Studio
TKD Architects delivers high-quality contemporary design across a wide range of project sectors.

We believe in architecture that has a respect for history and a clarity of vision for the future.

Our Surry Hills office reflects the vision and profile of an evolving practice while providing a real sense of belonging and creativity for the whole TKD team. The light-filled converted warehouse has open, collaborative spaces as well as smaller, team meeting spaces. The aspirational single level workspace allows views throughout the space and touches of colour give it a warm, vibrant ambience.
