HOLLEMART CREATIVE

Founded in 2014 in Margaret River, Western Australia, Hollemart Creative (HO Creative) is a design practice led by Christian Hollemart and Valentina Ortiz. A husband-and-wife team, both registered architects in Chile. With more than a decade of experience practising architecture in Australia, we bring a global perspective to our work, blending design influences from Chile and Australia.

Following the closure of Willcox Architects, where Christian Hollemart played a key role as a project leader, designer, and documenting agent, we established HO Creative to continue delivering thoughtful, high-quality architecture. Valentina Ortiz, with her exceptional design sensibility and expertise in landscape architecture, brings a refined, holistic approach to our projects, ensuring seamless integration between built and natural environments.

Our work spans residential, hospitality, and commercial projects, as well as master planning and landscape interventions. We collaborate closely with clients and select builders to deliver high-performance, energy-efficient, and cost-effective designs. By integrating lean construction and design principles, we create spaces that prioritise sustainability, comfort, and aesthetics—a philosophy that defines our approach to architecture.

Currently, HO Creative is designing projects across Australia and Chile, crafting spaces that enhance the way people live, work, and connect with their surroundings.
