Seeley Architects is a design-based firm based in Torquay Victoria Australia at the start of the world renowned Great Ocean Road. Their design work ranges from houses and residential work to commercial, educational, public buildings and interiors. The common thread through all projects is an engagement with their clients’ needs and desires and the translation of that into a successful building. The realization of such projects is only possible through a close collaboration between the client and architect and an attention to detail across all aspects of the project. Seeley Architects has a long standing commitment to the principles of sustainable design and incorporate such features into their designs from the outset. These principles are evident in the sensitive sitting and orientation of buildings within the landscape, through to the application of passive heating and cooling techniques to ensure comfortable and energy efficient buildings. Their design expertise includes extensive knowledge of natural materials, Australian timbers and stone masonry which relate to the traditions of coastal architecture in Victoria. Their buildings utilize proven building techniques and materials that result in beautiful and efficient buildings which age and weather gracefully. With an understanding of building techniques and materials they are able to use them in innovative ways – whereby the inherent quality of materials (both rare and everyday) are revealed and used to enhance the function and qualities of each unique project.
