PROJECT
A heritage Victorian Terrace house that had weathered over its long life, and was in much need of restoration. While the existing features of the façade and front two rooms were retained, a modest extension to the rear maximizes the full potential of a narrow site and allows for open plan living and complete connection to the courtyard beyond.
A restrained palette ensures that light and texture are celebrated, and high ceilings provide a perception of spaciousness throughout the home.
By implementing clever design strategies, the renovation maximizes natural light and ventilation, and improves the overall functionality and performance of the home.
