Hopetoun is a contemporary mansion situated on a prominent landholding in Melbourne’s Toorak. Poetic in plan, the residence draws on traditional architectural principles of volume and space, reinterpreted through a refined, modern lens. The generous scale of the site allowed us to prioritise functionality, volume, and a sense of spatial generosity throughout. The design began with a singular block form, from which elements were carved away to invite light, greenery, and softness — introducing curves, vegetation, and refined detailing that balance the strength of the architecture with a sense of calm.
