WHDA are a design and architecture practice in Melbourne led by Redmond Hamlett and Douglas Wan with a primary focus on community and residential architecture.

We play our part in the enduring project of contextual modernism; to harness rationalist design rigour for humanist needs. To this end we layer design responses from environment, culture and local histories with the aim of producing engaging architecture with a strong identity.

We are experienced in a wide range of projects including educational, community, residential and commercial buildings. We provide a full range of architectural services for client groups including community engagement processes for community organisations and institutions that are building educational and other community facilities in Victoria.
