Manly-based buck&simple creates bespoke, high-end homes on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, combining approachable luxury, refined craftsmanship and site-specific design to elevate everyday coastal living.
For more than a decade, an architecture and interiors firm in Manly has been quietly shaping Sydney’s residential landscape. Founded in 2013 by directors Peter James Ahern and Kurt Crisp, buck&simple has earned a reputation for bespoke, high-end homes that are both sophisticated and deeply liveable. Its projects speak to a philosophy of “understated luxury,” a style that privileges detail, craftsmanship and comfort over ostentation.
