An arm of the NSW Department of Housing, Resitech’s primary client base is low cost community housing in the western suburbs.  The project brief for this Seven Hills site called for a mix of social and special needs housing. A series of two storey townhouses flank Hope Street with single storey villas accessed from a secondary street. The townhouses take the form of articulated row housing, responding to the accentuated slope of the street. Living areas are located at ground level opening onto north and south facing courtyards with bedrooms above. The rear villas are designed to capture light and breezes with a series of private garden spaces.

Office Profile

Fox Johnston is a young Sydney-based architecture & design practice that combines an intelligent, pragmatic response to each client’s brief with a thorough understanding of the opportunities created by site and context.

We work across a range of projects, from large private houses to adaptive re-use of heritage buildings to major multi-residential projects.   
Our work is driven by a passion for light, space, natural materials and finely crafted living spaces, coupled with an acute awareness of the sustainability challenges facing the built environment today.

The practice specialises in creating well-resolved, light-filled, tactile and thought-provoking buildings – both single houses and multi-residential projects – for people to live work & play in. Living in a Fox Johnston-designed building is the perfect antidote to the stresses of today’s complex & challenging world.

Fox Johnston is a design and ideas-driven practice based in Sydney, Australia. The practice offers an experiential and holistic approach to design by integrating landscape and architecture to create compelling and thought-provoking places.
