About our aspirations
Glyde_Bautovich are architects, urban designers and planners who work together and separately to transform resources, regulations, programs, and ideas into places of beauty.
We believe in the ‘spirit of place’ or genius loci and passionately engage in the art of making meaningful places of distinctive character through a careful process.
We research and analyse client aspirations, economics, demographics, urban structure, history, building typologies and appropriate precedents.
We re-use and revisit these layers that are beneath the surface to inform an appropriate outcome.
The place becomes a palimpsest set within its context.
The experience of the public space, what makes the city or place stick together, becomes rich, activated and vital.
Our analysis feeds into the architectural process which becomes form driven whereby we mould the fabric of the building to engage with nature, capture light and air, in a way that we know will lead to joyful inhabitation.
We breath in information, aspirations and breath out a new space or building as an offering to the people of the city and those who occupy them.

Light Industrial and Commercial
Herbert Street, Artarmon
This project is a light industrial/manufacturing complex situated in an industrial area in the northern suburb of Artarmon in Sydney. The proposal consists of substantial renovations and extensions to an existing warehouse building of 1600m2 increasing its capacity to 3500m2. The building houses a catering kitchen on the ground floor and light hi tech-manufacturing studios for creatives to the upper levels.
The architectural solution is driven by two main ideas. The first is create a new facade for the building that helps improve the internal space for the occupants and provides a new character for the building that reflects its new uses. The second idea is to create an internal communal open space that becomes a central hub for the complex and provides sun and air. A flexible space that can be used for promotions at certain times and used as a simple everyday outdoor space for occupants at other times.
