Private Residential Architecture

For private clients, we design bespoke residential architecture. Each home responds to its site, its context, and the people who will live in it, with spatial planning, materiality, and light treated as the foundation of the design.

Case Study — IKON, Potts Point

This approach shaped IKON, a private residence in Potts Point where architecture and interior design came together to meticulously craft a haven that felt both personal and extraordinary.It is the same model we bring to every private residential architect engagement, from full renovations to new builds, including our growing body of work on private homes.

Our Approach to Residential and Multi-Residential Project Delivery

A single, considered process, applied consistently whether the brief is a private home or a multi-unit development.
01
INITIAL CONSULTATION & BRIEFING WORKSHOP

Every project begins with a considered conversation. We listen carefully, workshop ideas, and define your vision, clarifying objectives, constraints, budget and ambition. This foundation ensures the design is purposeful from the outset.

02
CONCEPT DESIGN

This is where creative direction takes shape. We explore spatial potential, develop design narratives and test ideas through drawings and visual studies. The concept phase sets the tone, rhythm and character of your project.

03
SCHEMATIC DESIGN & AUTHORITY SUBMISSIONS

We refine the chosen concept into a clear spatial plan and prepare documentation for development approvals (DA, CDC or equivalent). The focus is on alignment, with both your goals and the regulatory framework.

04
DESIGN DEVELOPMENT

Here, ideas become tangible. Materials, details, joinery and systems are developed and coordinated across disciplines. We resolve the design technically and aesthetically, elevating it without compromise.

05
TENDER DOCUMENTATION

We prepare detailed documentation for tender, ensuring accurate pricing and clear scope for prospective builders. Our goal is to attract the right delivery partner, one aligned with the quality and complexity of your project.

06
CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTATION

We produce a fully coordinated construction package, including all technical drawings and specifications. Every element is documented to support precision on site and fidelity to the design intent.

07
ADVICE DURING CONSTRUCTION (ADC)

We stay involved throughout the build, reviewing shop drawings, responding to contractor queries, and making regular site visits. Our presence ensures the design is realised to standard, and decisions are made with confidence.

08
STYLING

The final layer. We curate furniture, lighting and objects to harmonise with the architecture, refining spatial feel, function and identity. It’s where the vision becomes fully lived-in, and fully yours.

Frequently Asked Questions

01
What's the difference between residential and multi-residential architecture at Henderson & Co.?

Residential architecture refers to the work Henderson & Co. undertakes for private clients on single-home renovations or new builds, while multi-residential architecture covers apartment buildings, townhouses, and multi-unit developments, typically commissioned by property developers.

02
Does Henderson & Co. work with property developers as well as private clients?

Yes. Henderson & Co. delivers multi-residential design services for property developers across Australia, as well as private residential architecture for individual homeowners, with project delivery that meets commercial and regulatory requirements.

03
How long does a residential or multi-residential project typically take?

Timelines vary with scope, but most projects move through initial consultation, concept design, schematic design and authority submissions, design development, tender and construction documentation, and advice during construction. A private home renovation may move through these stages faster than a multi-residential development requiring development approval and staged delivery.

04
What locations does Henderson & Co. design for?

Henderson & Co. is based in Potts Point, Sydney, and delivers residential and multi-residential architecture across Sydney, Brisbane, the Gold Coast and Dubai.

05
Does Henderson & Co. manage interior design as well as architecture?

Yes. Henderson & Co. is a multidisciplinary practice that brings architecture and interior architecture together, rather than treating interiors as a separate, later stage, carried through to a final styling phase where furniture, lighting and objects are curated to complete the space.
