Design highlights

  • Lit display niche with glass-block wall and stone steps between the living levels

    Reimagining the Existing. The original structure is retained and thoughtfully expanded, blending old and new into one cohesive home.

  • Living room seen past a column, with the stair landing and soft daylight through sheer curtains

    Maximising Space. Additional floors, an attic and basement make the most of the site and available GFA, creating more room without rebuilding from scratch.

  • Dry kitchen with a long island and timber stools, a pendant light and blinds along the windows

    Light & Connected Living. Natural light, improved airflow and an open living and dining area bring a brighter, more spacious quality to the home and create a natural centre for family life.
