D E S I G N P R O F I L E

Principal & Founder, Jamie Durie OAM, was born in Sydney and raised in the outback town of Tom Price in Western Australia. Jamie, like most Australians, loves the outdoors and his deep connection with nature has guided him to create the ultimate outdoor living spaces. His inspiration comes from the vast natural beauty of the Australian landscape, extensive international travel and a passion for Eastern culture and lifestyle through his Sri Lankan heritage. He successfully combines these elements to create his own unique style and approach to design and infuses his design team with the same ideas and philosophies. Through Jamie’s example, the team follows his lead, creating emotional, warm spaces for people inside & out where life long memories are enjoyed.

Largely responsible for completely changing the face of landscape design in Australia, Jamie is the master of the Outdoor Room concept, inspiring a whole new generation to rediscover their

gardens and integrate them as extensions of their living spaces. In his mission to bring us back to the earth and reconnect us with nature, not only has his work blurred the boundaries where architecture meets nature, but through his 15 years of work in landscape design, he has organically bridged the gap with a seamless transition between the design disciplines that govern the interior and exterior spaces by pioneering his ‘transterior’ philosophy. Coupling his love of natural spaces, with the warmth and comfort of interior spaces without compromising one or the other, he and his team have created residential and commercial spaces that share an equal dedication to transterior harmony. This philosophy bridges the inside and outside by means of a single, innovative, design language. This organic, evolution of philosophy has led the team to become a multidisciplinary design firm that covers landscape, interior, transterior, architecture and product design.

“Aside from the clothes we wear, the most immediate extension of ourselves is the space we inhabit. Within that space there is a dialogue between form and content – the coming together of the mental and the ornamental. Interior design equals interior life and it should be a meaningful, rich and beautiful experience”

PRODUCT DESIGN

This collection for RIVA 1920 was largely inspired by mid-century modern furniture with a strong natural aesthetic. The

simplicity of these designs is complimented by the attention to detail enhancing the ergonomics and functionality of each

piece. The sofa features an American walnut frame with premium leather cushions and an innovative timber shelf

behind the backrest—providing space to display accessories or place your drink. The Bungalow, Ficus and Rope Stools are

statement pieces on their own while also sitting cohesively within the collection—each piece combining leather, rope and

timber, innovatively and seamlessly. The Tubular Bookshelf is a storage system with infinite configurations. The tubular

lacquered steel or brass frame and machined recesses in each of the solid walnut shelves allow the customer to be the

designer. The Tubular Table has been designed in a similar style with the positioning of the tubular frame base allowing for

plenty of legroom when sitting at each end.

This design was based on an outdoor living room. The client wanted to invert the living spaces of the home to the outdoors,

by creating not just one but several outdoor rooms. The plantings were Mediterranean-inspired, with topiary pines,

shaped box hedge, olives, succulents and bougainvillea.

A dream client with a passion for the environment helped make this project one of the most important of my career. Solar

powered throughout and featuring a unique selection of water-wise plants, it includes a dining pavilion with vertical green

environment. The plant selection emphasised this with mature cacti, succulents and 600-year-old olive trees from an old

farm in Madrid. Water is an all-pervading presence within this landscape subtly linking the desert with endless views of sea.

The apartments were designed to make use of the balcony as an extension of the interiors to create a seamless indoor-

outdoor space. This was achieved with the use of porcelain tiles both inside and out and textiles that have both an outdoor

application and an indoor look and feel so they could be used across most furniture items.






The interior design is clean and elegant with the layout maximising the outlook from each of the interior zones.




The VEO sales gallery located in Melawati, Kuala Lumpur was designed with two key concepts in mind, ‘luxury’ and

‘sanctuary’.

The location provided a beautiful rainforest backdrop, with rendered organic design and aesthetics. Features such as the

vertical green walls behind the reception desk, conversation pods enveloped with a rope weave, sunken lounge areas and

a large tree centerpiece wrapped in rope were featured in the VEO sales gallery to evoke the essence of luxury and

sanctuary.

J7C is a multi-residential bungalow style development in Malaysia. The underlying concept behind each design is to

optimise the seamless transition between inside and out. The double height central courtyard light-well feeds the building—

breathing natural elements of air and light into the core of the structure. The living and dining spaces are luxuriously

proportioned and flanked on both sides with gardens and light wells. A reflection pond edge to the living space creates a fresh

and cool backdrop in this humid climate.

optimise the seamless transition between inside and out.The exterior architecture echoes this concept by connecting

the indoor and outdoor spaces with perforated screening that runs from inside to out. These screens also provide privacy

and help define the spaces. The inner courtyard means each bungalow’s outllook is turned inward to its inner sanctuary

enhancing privacy between each building.
