We’re delighted to share that 27 Hall Street, Bondi Beach has received approval – rounding out an MHNDU hat-trick along this iconic stretch, with its neighbouring sites having MHNDU designs approved in 2024.
Set just moments from the shoreline, the project restores the building’s original brick facade and introduces a new shop-top residential development arranged around a central landscaped atrium. The design brings light, air and greenery deep into the plan, creating a thoughtful contemporary addition to Hall Street’s evolving character. More to come as the project progresses.

More snapshots of Bondi Penthouse, as featured by @est_living.
A softened material palette, curved junctions and carefully composed transitions create an environment of ease – a place where light moves gently across stone, timber and plaster throughout the day. Here, the architecture sets the groundwork for internal schemes that insight a sense of calm, establishing clear sightlines and sculpted volumes that support the interior’s restrained warmth.

We’re delighted to share MHNDU’s contribution to the NSW Housing Pattern Book, an initiative led by Government Architect NSW in partnership with the NSW Government to deliver high-quality, adaptable and sustainable mid-rise housing across the state. Officially launched today at our offices in Surry Hills, the @gansw Pattern Book provides accessible design frameworks for mid-rise housing; helping councils, builders and communities work from a shared vision of quality and practicality. Selected through a competitive tender process, our practice joins an exceptional cohort – including Collins & Turner, Nguluway Design Inc., Silvester Fuller, TZG Architects and Bennett and Trimble – to develop Mid-Rise Housing Patterns (3–6 storeys) that balance design rigour, value and buildability.
A contemporary take on mid-century modernist apartments, our Small Lot Apartments pattern is a contemporary interpretation of the mid-rise typology: flexible modular layouts, passive solar design, all-electric living, private outdoor space for every home, and communal areas woven through the building, including a rooftop terrace. Designed to suit a diversity of NSW sites and household types, and approved for a streamlined delivery pathway.
A key step toward shaping the future of housing in NSW – homes that strengthen community, respect context and elevate everyday life.

Bondi Penthouse, as recently featured by @est_living. Working within the existing envelope, the design introduces gentle curves, elongated thresholds and framed coastal views, allowing the architecture to read as both a continuation and an elevation of the building’s original character. The result is a refined, light-filled retreat shaped for pause and outlook.

From a previous design phase, this early scheme for our Wildes Meadow project considered a single-storey home designed to sit quietly within its pastoral landscape. Developed collaboratively with our returning client – who is also a builder – this iteration balanced material warmth, efficiency and connection to the site’s rolling green surrounds.

Extending the architectural language beyond its interiors, Palomar opens to a private courtyard and pool terrace that evoke the warmth and intimacy of a Mediterranean retreat. A collaboration with RnB Property, with interiors by @lawlessandmeyerson and furnishings by @tigmitrading, the design finds strength in its textural layering – stone walls, patterned tiles and cascading greenery enclosing a tranquil sanctuary of light and shadow. As recently featured in @thelocalproject, Palomar captures the spirit of resort living within an urban setting, translating the romance of distant shores into a composition of restrained yet vibrant elegance.

More images of PALOMAR, our collaboration with RnB Property, with interiors by @lawlessandmeyerson and furnishings by @tigmitrading. @lawlessandmeyerson`s interiors work in quiet dialogue with our design – bronzed detailing, arched thresholds and stone surfaces are softened through @tigmitrading`s curated layering of texture, colour and craftsmanship. The result is an exotic and studied interior world that tempers Mediterranean romanticism with contemporary Sydney restraint. Recently featured in @thelocalproject, Palomar is a testament to considered design – where structure, interior and object align in an expression of a joyful and palatial architectural resolve.

PALOMAR marks the considered reimagining of an existing Spanish Mission building into a contemporary apartment residence. Working closely with RnB Property, our design preserves the character and rhythm of the original facade while refining its proportions and detailing to meet modern expectations of light, space and material integrity. The result is architecture defined by its arched bronze openings, crafted stonework and Moroccan lattice detailing – elements that bring depth and permanence to the building’s renewed form.

O DONNELL I: Within, the architecture unfolds through layers of light, texture and veiling. A sculptural stair enclosed in fine metal mesh becomes a translucent screen of shifting silhouettes – revealing movement while maintaining privacy. Brick, Victorian Ash timber and brass detailing create a softly luminous palette that echoes the calm tactility of the coast beyond. In collaboration with @sjs_designer, we composed spaces that feel both robust and serene, where daylight washes masonry walls and exposed joists bring warmth to restrained geometry. O’Donnell I captures the essence of Bondi living – refined, elemental and deeply connected to place.

Anchored to its coastal slope, O’Donnell I composes a dialogue between contrast and cohesion. Off-white Austral Chillingham brickwork folds gently around black-stained Abodo timber volumes, their interplay of tone and texture expressing both permanence and lightness. The semi-detached residences mirror one another along a central axis, yet each retains its own rhythm and poise. A landscaped entry by @dangarbarinsmith leads to interiors that open to sea air and light, balancing privacy with connection to the coast. The result is an architecture of attunement – of coastal materiality, urban refinement, and a measured equilibrium between individuality and symmetry.

Breathing new life into a 1930s car showroom, East Sydney Collection exemplifies the power of adaptive reuse in the heart of Darlinghurst. The project retains the building’s distinctive curves and steel-framed glazing, layering them with contemporary loft apartments, townhouses, and a rooftop garden.
Balancing preservation with innovation, the design celebrates heritage while addressing urban density and sustainability. Brickwork and masonry details are carefully integrated with new structures, demonstrating how history can be a foundation for modern living. The result is a vibrant urban community — one that honours its architectural legacy while setting a benchmark for thoughtful inner-city renewal.

TRACES: Drawing on the layered histories of Surry Hills, Traces reinterprets the warehouse and terrace typologies that have long defined the neighbourhood. Situated on a site once home to a hardware store, the project takes inspiration from the area’s industrial past while engaging with its vibrant contemporary context. Materials from the original brick warehouse are retained and re-integrated, lending both texture and memory to the new structure. Traces is at once homage and reinvention — a composition where history and modernity coexist in dialogue.

We’re delighted to announce DA approval for one of our latest waterfront residences. Conceived as a sculptural form, the design balances strength with softness. Curved facades create a gentle rhythm, softening scale while establishing a confident architectural presence. Vertical screening and finely detailed masonry accentuate the play of light and shadow, layering solidity with transparency. At once confident and graceful, the residence finds its character in the balance of sculptural form and delicate detail.

Today we celebrate and farewell Luke Buttenshaw, who marks twenty remarkable years with MHNDU.
Joining the practice as a student at Sydney University, Luke has since become a cornerstone of our team, shaping a career across houses and boutique multi-residential projects with expertise in planning, documentation, and design.
His creativity has always been grounded in dual passions — the artistry of form and the rigour of technical detail — a fusion that has defined his contribution to the practice. From the bold clifftop residence Headland House in North Bondi to the award-winning Chainmail House, Luke’s work reflects both precision and imagination.
Luke departs with our deepest gratitude and admiration. His legacy of thoughtful, enduring architecture will continue to inspire our practice for years to come.
Currently under construction, our boutique apartments in Bellevue Hill range from 100 to 190 square metres. The ground-level home spans three cascading levels, extending to a long pool, framed by foliage and softly textured stone. Anchoring the building is a mature eucalyptus tree — preserved and celebrated through a central glazed void. Visible from every level, this living monument forms the heart of the design, offering a quiet dialogue between architecture and landscape.

THE GALLERIES: With its restrained palette and thoughtful spatial planning, The Galleries prioritises both form and function. The building’s horizontal brick banding adds a subtle rhythm to the facade, while the continuity of this detailing into interior elements—such as feature fireplaces—creates a cohesion through materiality. Ground-floor apartments feature private gardens that foster a connection to the outdoors, while upper-level units are carefully planned to maximise light and space without sacrificing intimacy.

A big congratulations to Michael Waterman on his promotion to Principal at MHNDU! With a career spanning a decade with us, Michael has been instrumental in delivering award-winning projects like the celebrated Traces in Surry Hills. His innovative and timeless approach to architecture continues to inspire our team and shape the world around us. Well done, Michael!
We`re thrilled to announce that Shaun Gaylard has been promoted to Associate at MHNDU! Shaun brings a wealth of experience and a passion for creating timeless architectural compositions that blend natural textures and forms. Since joining us in 2022, his creativity and dedication have been invaluable to our multi-residential projects. Congratulations, Shaun—well-deserved!
As our Principals continue to reflect on 2024, Tanya Awadallah shares one of her most meaningful moments.
This festive season marks six years since MHNDU moved into our iconic Surry Hills office space. Operating in the late nineteenth century as a steam laundry, our warehouse space has been the home of many different Sydney enterprises in its lifetime. Its high ceilings provide an inspiring space and light for our busy collective. We feel the hum of the bustling urban rhythm of Surry Hills right outside, whilst being contained and held within its walls. Part of our journey here has also been to open our profit-for-purpose cafe, wilson, which has been serving coffee and food since late 2019, sharing this beautiful space with our community and donating all proceeds to various worthy charities.
As the end of year approaches, we are spending some time musing with our Principals on their highlights of a busy 2024. To kick us off, Kevin Ng shares his most significant moments!
