The clients brief was to realise the full potential of the site, focussing more on the ample rear yard areas whilst maintaining the original character of the dwelling.

Our focus concentrated on improving the sequence through the home with a strong visual link from front to back. A deliberate change in finish and play with light creates a legible definition between the original home and the modern rear addition.

The result is a home that clearly identifies the new from the old internally, but sensitively connects externally through its materiality and proportions.
