SUPERCONTEXT is an architectural practice, providing architectural design, documentation and project management services. We are particularly focused on adaptive reuse projects retrofitting new life into old spaces, including additions to existing buildings.
We specialise in early childhood education, commercial, public, cultural and community buildings with a broad base of experience in these and residential project types.
Our services include project feasibility studies, options/concept design, development application/complying development, construction documentation, contract administration and post occupancy services.
We don’t like;
Instagram, but in the sort of Stockholm syndrome way?; Facebook much, either; Anything you saw on “the Block”, “Renovation Rescue” and above all “House Rules”; Failing; Succeeding; Being judged.
We do and sometimes like;
Complex problems with imperfect solutions; Humour; Being un-seriously serious about how seriously we take our work, but not being too serious about ourselves?; The rough unfinished over asphyxiated perfection; Big words; Texture, colour, depth and confusion (instead of white, more white, gloss white, brass and ‘clarity’); Coffee; Hypocrisy and inconsistency, so ignore all of the above.
GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT, FOR PEOPLE AND FOR YOU.
People come first.
We engage with our clients first as we like to be engaged with ourselves - as people. Your project is an opportunity to make a better world for you, but also for your clients and stakeholders, your society and your communities.
We are experienced in navigating the complex process of delivering buildings from start to finish and are committed to sustainable design practices from first principles. Our name declares our belief that bringing your project’s widest context to the table - it's "super"context - can leave the world a better place than when we started.
