Phillip Mathieson's Own Home: A Restrained Urban Retreat in Sydney's Altair Apartments
Phillip Mathieson, founder of the architecture practice Mathieson, has transformed a compact one-bedroom residence within Sydney's Altair Apartments into his own home. The Kings Cross Apartment is described as a deeply restrained urban retreat that distills the practice's architectural language into a quieter, more personal expression. The project reimagines the small space with a focus on minimalism and tranquility, reflecting Mathieson's design philosophy. The Altair Apartments, a notable Sydney building, provide the context for this residential intervention.
