Adelaide, Australia
PARABOLICA is the architecture practice of Benjamin Pitman and Jasmine Placentino, working between Adelaide and Melbourne. Their work sits in that rare space where opposites don’t clash—they converse. Quiet yet expressive. Familiar yet unexpected. Grounded in context but open to reinterpretation.
The studio approaches each project as a layered experience, where architecture, interiors, and landscape aren’t treated as separate disciplines but as parts of the same language. Simple forms and a pared-back material palette form the backbone of their buildings, but it’s the way light moves across surfaces—and the way people move through space—that gives them life.
They see constraints not as limits, but as prompts. Each site, each brief, each conversation is an opportunity to rethink how a space can feel, function, and last. The result is architecture that doesn’t announce itself—but stays with you.
