I’m William Thomas Hickman, an architect, artist and designer. I enjoy swimming, cycling and long lunches.

My practice Workshop WTH collaborates to make buildings, installations, film sets, landscapes, events and exhibitions. I also design flyers, logos, furniture, record sleeves, books, t-shirts and websites. 

I focus on experience, identity and place to enhance the sense of belonging for each project. In doing so I hope to enrich our lives, communities and environments.

I acknowledge the long standing connection First Nations people have to Country.

My practice works on Country belonging to Kombumerri, Ngarang-Wal, Turrbal, Jagera, Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung and Bunurong peoples.

I pay our respects to their Lores, Customs and Traditions, Elders; past, present and emerging.





Song for the Mute:
Melbourne Concept Store (2024)

Made in collaboration w/ Chair Boi

Located in Naarm, on the land of Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung and Bunurong Boon Wurrung Peoples.The store is kind of like a city, where the clothes racks are imagined as mini buildings. In the front they form a grand meeting place, with edges to occupy. In the back a funny angle matches the entry threshold, creating discrete and private viewing moments. The arrangement creates a circuit for one to navigate and rewards curiosity. 

Made from White Oak the clothes racks express their construction. They have details that reflect Chris’s craft, Song’s values and speak to the hardware in the changing rooms. Additional furniture from John at Curve, add a comfortable, casual and thematically suitable place to sit.

Big paper lanterns are arranged like the night sky bathe the space in soft and flattering light. Special ‘Teardrop’ pendants from Curve act as a beacon in the window display. Exiting and entry through the deep threshold, made with hardwood and river stone brings part of the outside in, there is opportunity for occupation as well, making the window display an interactive experience.
Untitled(Monolith)
In the hyper stimulation of new movements amongst colonial relics, untitled (monolith) is an elemental intervention of light in improvised opportunities. layers of individual, collective and environmental potential, together in an unpredictable union a site of solace to question new definitions within our homes, communities, and lives on stolen, indigenous land.
