We are so very pleased to be shortlisted along with two other Fremantle based architectural practices for the Hilton Design Competition.
"The competition attracted 79 entries from both emerging and established architectural practices. The jury was overwhelmed by the number of entries and impressed with the variety of the design approaches and the consistently high quality of the submissions. It genuinely made the process of shortlisting only four entries extremely difficult, but based on the creativity and innovation of the submissions the future of public housing in Hilton will be very impressive.
Housing is pleased to confirm the following teams have been shortlisted by the jury:
David Barr and Stephen Hicks, David Barr Architects
Bernard Seeber, Jonathan Strauss and Georgia Willis, Bernard Seeber Architects
Trent Woods, Officer Woods Architects
Jennie Officer, Officer Woods Architects"
Featuring Stephen Hicks from David Barr Architects......
