Product Description

North Bondi Beach Wall Art — Sydney, New South Wales

The houses of North Bondi packed up the hillside above the water, with surfers working a clean bank on the turquoise below them. This is the residential side of Bondi rather than the tourist one — terraces and apartments stacked shoulder to shoulder right down to the rocks.

North Bondi is where the beach stops being a destination and starts being somebody's actual neighbourhood. The North Bondi RSL, the surf club, the quieter end of the sand where locals swim laps before work — it's the same water as the famous end, with an entirely different rhythm.

Original aerial photography by Matthew Philip

Personally shot by Australian aerial photographer Matthew Philip on a DJI Mavic 4 Pro. Dense residential architecture and clear water in one frame is a genuine test — hard-edged rooflines against soft, moving turquoise. The drone's 100MP Hasselblad camera holds the detail in both, right down to individual surfers on the bank.

The Bondi people actually live in

This piece means the most to anyone with a connection to the eastern suburbs — the locals, the ex-residents, the people who spent years in one of those flats. It reads as home rather than as a landmark.

It suits living rooms, apartments and offices, and pairs beautifully with the main-beach Bondi pieces as the more personal note on the wall.

Available as a fine art paper print or stretched canvas, with black, oak and white framing options across a full range of sizes. Every artwork in the Matthew Philip collection comes from his own aerial photographs of beaches he has personally visited and flown.

About The Location

North Bondi is where the beach stops being a destination and starts being somebody's actual neighbourhood. Terraces and apartments stacked shoulder to shoulder right down to the rocks, surfers on a clean bank below.

Same water as the famous end, completely different rhythm — the RSL, the surf club, locals swimming laps before work rather than tourists queuing for a photo.

Dense architecture against moving water is a real test: hard rooflines at one end of the frame, soft turquoise at the other. The 100MP Hasselblad on the Mavic 4 Pro holds detail in both, right down to individual surfers on the bank. For anyone who has lived in one of those flats, this one reads as home.

Frequently asked questions

All canvas prints on this site are made to order—I print each one specifically for you using museum-quality materials, which means a 3–4 week production and delivery window within Australia. This isn't a warehouse clearance; it's a custom-made product crafted to last decades. If you're ordering before a specific date, get in touch and I can often prioritize your print. Free shipping applies Australia-wide, and you'll receive tracking so you know exactly when your piece is arriving.

Paper and poster prints ship much faster—typically 1-2 business days to anywhere in the world, with free international shipping included. If you need your aerial photography print urgently, this is the best option. The paper is archival-grade (same fade-resistant, professional-quality stock I use in gallery prints), so despite the quicker turnaround, you're not compromising on longevity.

Canvas prints ship ready to hang with your choice of frame style at checkout: black, white, or natural oak. Each frame is specifically designed to complement the composition of the aerial photography and arrives attached and ready to display. If you prefer an unframed print, that's available too—giving you the flexibility to source custom framing locally or match existing décor. Paper prints come unframed but can be ordered with frame recommendations included in your package.

Canvas prints are stretched across 390gsm acid-free poly-cotton matte canvas—the same archival-quality material used by professional galleries and museums for fine art. The inks are fade-resistant and non-toxic, rated for 100+ years without noticeable color shift when kept out of direct sunlight. Paper prints come in three finishes: matte (museum-grade), semi-gloss (vibrant), or fine art paper, all archival-rated. As a Perth-based aerial photographer who has shot every image on this site, I've invested in materials that will outlast the trends—your print is an investment in something that lasts.

Canvas and paper prints are low-maintenance. Keep them away from prolonged direct sunlight (which fades any print over decades) and humidity extremes. If dust settles on canvas, a soft, dry, lint-free cloth does the job—no cleaners needed. Paper prints benefit from framing behind glass or acrylic, which provides UV protection and makes them virtually maintenance-free. Both formats are designed to age gracefully; many customers report their prints looking exactly as vibrant 10+ years later.

I stand behind every print. If your canvas or paper print arrives damaged, the colors aren't right, or anything doesn't meet your expectations, contact me immediately with photos. I'll remake it or refund you—no questions, no process. This isn't just a returns policy; it's a commitment to your satisfaction. Email matt@matthewphilip.com and we'll resolve it within 48 hours.
