Pandolfini Architects

Pandolfini Architects is a Melbourne architecture practice, based in South Melbourne and more than ten years in the making, working on private residential, multi-residential and commercial projects around Australia. It is led by director and nominated architect Dominic Pandolfini.

The practice embraces the principles of "longevity, integrity, and simplicity", with work defined by individualised outcomes, each born from a singular idea and championed from design to delivery. It believes architecture should inspire while creating a sense of calm, balancing animated moments with respectful reprieve, and has an exploratory interest in materials.

On Lunchbox, Port Melbourne House works within strict heritage controls to keep and restore the front of a terrace on a narrow block, while creating a family home with an abundant sense of space and light behind.
