Based in Sydney, Australia, Anderson Architecture was established in 2002 under the direction of architect Simon Anderson. A year of living in Stockholm, Sweden inspired the practice’s premise in the integration of sustainable architecture with contemporary design. The practice has experience working on a range of project types, specialising in the design and realisation of sustainable, high quality residential projects. We have a team of experienced architects who manage our projects from design to construction.
A philosophy of humanising contemporary architecture and connecting with nature are integral to all our projects. This, in combination with a collaborative approach to clients, attention to detail and an emphasis on site specific design characterise the practice’s approach to architecture.

Pocket Passiv House by Anderson Architecture is a compact, sustainable residence ingeniously built on a mere 27-square-meter footprint within a tight inner-city corner block in Glebe, Sydney. Set in a neighborhood shaped by Sydney’s 19th-century Victorian terrace house boom and originally inhabited by the Gadigal people
To disappear to a remote house off grid requires both technology and tenacity. First there’s energy use and battery storage to consider, adequate rainwater collection and, of course, bushfire planning and design. For practice director, Simon Anderson, eight acres of native bushland in the Blue Mountains proved an irresistible temptation for research and development.
The Ferry Road House is representative of how infill development within a heritage conservation area can be comfortable, practical and environmentally sensitive without compromise.
A home’s liveability begins and ends with its orientation. For this heritage home in the inner western suburb of Lewisham, south-facing living quarters meant the family spent most of their time in cold, dimly lit rooms. Not much fun.
